Batmeks are one of the Evil Horde's most used armored flying vehicles. They are unmanned flying machines that are usually controlled by an onboard computer, ensuring that members of the Great Rebellion see no harm in destroying the vehicles when possible. However, it is possible to override the automatic pilot and have a Horde Trooper pilot the Batmek. Several Rebels escaped Beast Island in a commandeered Batmek, and Hordak unleashed an entire fleet of them in the battle of Bright Moon.
