- Peritus Maximus is an Autobot from the Armada portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

Peritus Maximus is a company commander, overseeing the platoon Hot Shot served in as a young warrior on Cybertron.
He believes that new recruits require a firm structure to become seasoned officers, and emphasizes mentorship and unit obedience as a result.
Since he's the size of a normal Autobot in robot mode, Peritus Maximus transforms into the world's smallest spacecruiser, or possibly a city for Penbots.
