The hellbat, formerly called the battle hellion,^[1] is a transforming terran vehicle based on the hellion.

By the second phase of the Second Great War, the Terran Dominion developed a special robotic upgrade for the hellion. The battle mode's heat shielding expands and reforms to protect both the robot and the driver.^[2]

The hellbat is produced directly from the factory with an armory requirement. The factory can also produce the hellion directly.

In comparison to the hellion, the hellbat's attack has a shorter, but stronger and wider flame. It is slower than its counterpart, but also tougher.

The hellbat is an effective counter unit to massed (charging) zealots.^[4]
