I feel the same way. I think the BATs would only exist in limited numbers. They would have to be massively expensive to build and maintain. I think it also says either on one of the filecards or maybe in the comics that they tend to explode and are as much a hazard on the battlefield to Cobra as they are to the Joes. They don't waste them as cannon fodder because they have Vipers and Blue Shirts for that. Instead, I bet they use them one at a time. Firefly would remotely activate one in the middle of a presidential motorcade or if a Cobra base was getting over run, CC would activate one to occupy the Joes and cover his escape. Stuff like that. For things like that, I could see the Joes backing off and just containing the thing until a special unit is brought in to destroy it. I'm might use Steel Brigade Delta, 3 regular Steel Brigade troopers, and the new Vamp for a BAT killer group. Of course if you follow Cartoon Cannon all you need is the Sarge! He wipes out BATs by the dozen.
