Battle Android Trooper

Battle Android Troopers are Cobra robots from the G.I. Joe portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Battle Android Troopers are mass-produced androids used to fill out Cobra's ranks. Cheap and easily replaced, B.A.T.s are pretty popular among the higher-ups since they never question orders or demand pay or annoying stuff like that. On the other hand, they're pretty dumb, so they're usually just used to wear G.I. Joe down before actually skilled troops are sent in.

Fiction

Marvel Comics continuity

G.I. Joe starring Snake-Eyes and Transformers: Generation 2

A group of B.A.T.s attacked Tunnel Rat, Roadblock, Rock 'n Roll and Airtight in the sewers under Milleville. The Ninja Force showed up and destroyed them before they could do any serious harm. Sucker Punch

G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers continuity

When Cobra reprogrammed a number of Transformers to serve them, the robots were codenamed Battle Android Troopers. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers #1

Several years later, Cobra Commander led an army of B.A.T.s in an attack on Area 52. They were easily swept aside by the G.I. Joe battle mechs, but their ability to combine with each other and the nearby S.N.A.K.E.s into Cobratron proved a tad more difficult to overcome. The B.A.T.s were all but wiped out when the Autobots joined the battle, but it turned out their attack was just a distraction anyway. The Art of War #1

San Diego Comic-Con tech specs

Destro and Shockwave have created new Constructicon B.A.T.s which can interface with Transformers for data exchange and greater firepower. Poor old G.I. Joe has no real idea what these androids can do now they have Cybertronian technology in them! <ref>Constructicon B.A.T. page at yojoe.com</ref>
