Goliath is a fairly large maroon Con whose alternate mode is an A10 Warthog Thunderbolt, standing at an even 34 feet. He can disguise himself as a typical gray A10 to blend in with the military aircraft when needed.He's got a similar bulky build as well because of the alternate mode, only bigger. The build is somewhat a mix between Blackout and Megatron’s build, but with a head more like Megatron's size. When changing from his alternate mode to his bot form, the alternate mode has to fold in on itself from nose to empennage, followed by the wings folding in on the sides, and so forth.
Alt mode: maroon or the military issued appearance the A10 Warthog has

Personality:
Goliath is pretty cold, sinister, quiet and violent. He’s serious and prideful, and isn’t very wacky at all unlike his creator. In fact, he's quite emotionless since he's technically a drone! He’s fairly level headed most of the time unless you get him angry, which is pretty rare. Goliath can control his temper well, but his wrath is pretty dangerous if you get him angry enough. Goliath can get frustrated like anyone, but it’s very rare to see him reveal any kind of soft spot. No one who's met him is sure he even has one.
Goliath is reckless and will challenge anyone, even other Decepticons if it comes down to it, though he usually leans away from doing that if the situation favors that option. He's definitely not evasive or cowardly--he'll do whatever it takes to get stuff done, even if it means leaving a trai lof destruction (and blood in some cases!) in the process. Goliath is sinister with a sick sense of humor. He loves suffering and pain, though of course he himself doesn't like it as much. Goliath isn't necessarily a masochist per se either, but he does like to see energon/blood spill when he can get it.
Goliath respects his leaders and his creator, and will usually follow orders without disobeying or deviating, though if he sees a new, alternate option or better opportunity, he will take it without question, which is something he picked up from KARR and Tarnish. Goliath will seek revenge where needed as well, and you usually have to do something really crazy to scare him off completely. These things include things that may cause him to lose status or pride, cost him something he currently values for himself or anyone he works with, etc.
Strengths: His form and the secret he bears. Like KITT and KARR, it’s incredibly durable, if not more so. Goliath is not your typical Cybertronian drone. It's completely covered in the same nanomachines as KI3T and KARR's. Being strong willed and fairly maneuverable, Goliath is hard to bring down in either forms, especially when you add in all that firepower and the drones!
Weaknesses: ] Goliath is so sure of his strength that sometimes it gets the better of him. While he knows his vehicle form is not the most versatile out there, he still knows how to fight well with what he has. However, he’s reckless and violent, and sometimes if he’s not careful he can leave himself open. Fighting wise, Goliath also isn’t as agile as he would like to be, ESPECIALLY in his vehicle form.
Goliath is not completely invincible as it may first appear. His nanomachines have limits for one. More details on what his form contains and what his weapons are will be explained shortly.Goliath is not exactly an experienced hacker. Additionally, if one can slow down the replicating nanomachines, Golaith’s shell becomes much weaker.------------------------------------------------------------------------------THE SKELETONS IN YOUR CLOSET
Family: Tarnish – his creator
History: There is little to say about Goliath, for his history is connected to a will-be ex Autobot named Tarnish, who is a distant brother of Bulkhead. Tarnish is a tinkerer and scientist like Wheeljack, and could be consdered a rival. He decided to create Goliath once he got to Earth, hiding out for a while until he sent a more intact version of his project to NEST. Of course, he never fully explained what plans he had for it, as they were a bit complicated.
Goliath was designed to be strictly a warrior drone, one that followed the Autobot's orders specifically and never challenged outside influence. However, when more of the programming was complete, Tarnish underestimated how much violence he permitted in the restrictions of his programming. Tarnish had tried to give him an even mix of weapons and battle abilities design wise, and he wanted to keep the Con emotionless for a good reason. The programming involved a somewhat different objective. He was designed to be emotionless for the sake of battle, to make up for what Tarnish lacked. Tarnish also cooperated wiht KARR to generate advanced nanoskin, and he also helped determine a good alternate mode for the drone so he wouldn't have to worry about picking one, as it had certain size limitations because of one of Goliath's trump cards: ten shape shifting/triple changer drones that act as a getsalt--which transform into either grayish bullet proof motorcycle drones that are about the size of the motorcycle sisters' alternate modes, or small Predator drones (stealthy unmanned aircraft). Their mech forms are small but agile, about 8 feet tall, and are gray like Goliath's forms.
Even though Goliath technically has a laser core with a spark like device, he technically doesn't require energon to survive--instead, it only improves his funcitonability. He is basically a drone like the original KARR and KITT, thus allowing him to operate without these things for a certian amount of time. Tarnish prides in his creation, and knows he is currently nearing completion. However, Goliath is developing a mind of his own more rapidly than anticipated, and his body is already thinking of awakening early.------------------------------------------------------------------------------IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY?
Weapons:Alternate Mode Weaponry
- Energon powered 30 mm GAU-8/A Avenger Gatling-type canon
att: # Hardpoints: 11 (8× under-wing and 3× under-fuselage pylon stations) with a capacity of 16,000 lb (7,260 kg) and provisions to carry combinations of:- Drones (which are the secret mentioned, they have a small Predator form or a black covered motorcycle drone as well, with hidden laser weaponry). Five are on the left wing where rockets are usually placed in groups of pods, and five are on the right wing. Their predator form may be small, but their motorcycle mode can replicate the nanomachines into vehicles a bit smaller than Arcee (about 8 feet tall).
- Missiles:
o 2× AIM-9 Sidewinders air-to-air missiles for self-defense
o 8× AGM-65 Maverick air-to-surface missiles- Bombs (a mix of the following)
o Mk 77 incendiary bombs
o BLU-1, BLU-27/B Rockeye II, Mk20, BL-755 and CBU-52/58/71/87/89/97 cluster bombs
o Paveway series of Laser-guided bombs
o Wind Corrected Munitions Dispenser (A-10C)- Other:
o SUU-42A/A Flares/Infrared decoys
o Lockheed Martin Sniper XR & LITENING targeting pods (A-10C) orCybertronian form Weaponry- Side missiles
- Mech-sized version of a double bladed Kurasigama
- Energon wrist blades
- Left arm can shift into a the alternate mode's .30 mm gattling gun (which is a lot like Twister's). Left wrist blade cannot be used when this is activated.
Extra:
Abilities:
- The ability to heal fast like KITT and KARR, he has the same nanoskin as them.
- He also has an ability to generate up to ten drones that look like Predators near the missile pods on his wings, and these drones can also shift into motorcycles so they can move on the ground as well. See history for images.

His idea was created from the canon Goliath in the old KR series, his real self is a silent ten ton bullet proof semi created by Garthe Knight.

Descent Into Cerberon by Sonic Mayhem
Without emotion by Combichrist------------------------------------------------------------------------------WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT MEGoliath was still flying low right next to the mountains as he shot out of one almost perpendicularly at EDI's nine o'clock position. He accelerated as EDI forcefully moved in front and tried to draw him away from Tania's aircraft. He wasn't concerned about the human for the moment, but, he would be once he took care of EDI and Fireflight. He considered both of them worthy targets. Goliath was about to release two drones from near the bottom of the fuselage as he banked left into the valley, wings completely perpendicular to the ground. More bullets and sabot rounds grazed his underside. He paused releasing drones just then else they would have damaged his interior being unable to be released when rounds were grazing by him like so.
The bullet-proof drone promptly readjusted his pitch and leveled out as he simultaneously began a steep climb to be level with the UCAV and prepare the release of his drones as soon as his fuselage finished repairing itself at the same speed KITT and KARR could repair themselves. Challengly, Goliath blasted his own music in his dark cockpit, the first song that began to play was Prayer of the Refugee by Rise Against, and Goliath was by no means conservative with the volume, so when in close ranges, EDI and the others would hear it. Immediately upon leveling out, he angled his wings right a little to slip himself more towards EDI as he locked onto his target with the gattling gun and three more missiles from his hard points. As soon as that was started, Goliath released two drones in their Predator form. Both departed from behind him and headed straight towards Fireflight and Tania's aircraft, shooting lasers at them. They separated, approaching the two from opposite directions, and began firing at them from the side, aiming for the wings. The lasers themselves were a bright red color.
