Tankette (タンケッテ) is Hardhead's partner drone who can transform between a tank or jet for his small head robot to ride and a weapon for his transtector to wield. Albeit a drone, she's intelligent and capable of speech and displays an energetic and helpful personality.

Fiction

Transformers Legends comic

Tankette was created in conjunction with Hardhead's new transtector, built as part of a partnership between the Autobot Headmasters and the Axalon Trading Company. She first introduced herself to Chromedome who, having complained about not getting his transtector yet, was told to ride her into battle instead. Crewed by Chromedome and Rattrap, she contributed with her weapon mode when Hardhead tried to fight off an incoming meteor, though her blasts were ineffective. After Hardhead injured himself destroying the meteor with a headbutt, Tankette looked after him. Bonus Edition Vol. 21
