Filecard information:
Code Name: OVERKILL
B.A.T. LEADER
OVERKILL began as an experimental prototype for the third generation of B.A.T.s, but because of his advanced micro-computers and enhanced tactical logic programs, the cost projections were too high for profitable mass-production. He might have continued to gather dust on a shelf in the Cobra research labs if COBRA COMMANDER hadn't decided to utilize him as a battlefield commander for the android troopers. It was Cobra Commander's idea to add a voice synthesizer program to repeat demoralizing slogans at deafening volumes. Overkill's primary job is to operate the destructive Cobra Earthquake battle vehicle.
1. Opening chest plate reveals two .50-caliber machine guns
2. Infrared night scope eye; telescopic analyzer eye
3. Oxygen regulator mask
4. Turbo hydraulic legs
5. Sophisticated strength activation system in arms
6. Techno-cerebral intelligence
7. Mind control, memory drain unit
• Shin-based, fuel porta-packs
• Hidden, leg-based flamethrower
• Psychic sensor backpack
