Combaticon

Combaticons are a subspecies of military vehicle-themed Cybertronians from the planet Cybertron.

Biology
While also being a subgroup of Decepticons, Combaticons consider themselves a species unto themselves.

Anatomy
Combaticons have similar biology to other Cybertronians, except that they transform into military vehicles such as mobile anti-aircraft trucks, battle tanks, combat support jeeps, assault helicopters, and even space shuttles.

Powers and abilities
Combaticons share many of the same abilities as other Cybertronians.

Select Combaticons can combine to form a combiner known as Bruticus.

Culture and society
Combaticons are a unit of fierce Decepticon soldiers, operating with (mostly) military precision under the watchful eye of the tactically brilliant Onslaught.

Combaticons are generally considered to be the mortal enemies of the Protectobots, as well as the subject of Shockwave's first combiner experiment for the Decepticons.
