The Hunter-Killer Tank, or Cyborg Tank,[citation needed] is one of Skynet's Non-Humanoid Hunter Killers as a principal ground-based combat vehicle.
Developed from the original T-1, the HK-Tank is several stories tall and vaguely humanoid in overall shape, possessing a rotating, conning tower-like "head", two steel "arms" equipped with twin-barreled directional plasma cannons, and two "legs" consisting of massive individual tank treads. While formidably armed, the HK-Tank can be easily destroyed by a well-placed demolition charge.
With the increase of effective anti-HK tactics used by the Resistance to not only disable these units but to scavenge them for heavy weapons, power sources, and armor, Skynet has started equipping some units with crew compartments, containing concealed endoskeletons to counterattack the human assault teams.

Fiction
The Terminator
Kyle Reese and another Resistance soldier were trying to toss Canister bombs to destroy an HK-Tank. Kyle tossed the charge successfully, but the other did not, and was killed by the HK-Tank. The HK-Tank was destroyed after a while when running over the charge tossed by Kyle.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day
Many Resistance soldiers were in the middle of the war and were fighting HK-Aerials and HK Tanks. Two of them are seen during the intro scene
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
Derek Reese and Martin Bedell were trying to destroy the "Ogre". Martin decided to carry the bomb to destroy the machine. He successfully destroys the Ogre but lost his life. "Goodbye to All That"
Terminator Salvation
An alleged HK-Tank by the satellite dishes at the Skynet VLA fired upwards in an attempt to destroy the cruise missile launch by the Tech-Com before impact. This design is different from the ones shown in past movies, and has four guns in two layers. Rather than plasma cannons, it has normal ammunition.
Terminator Salvation game
An HK-Tank was hacked by John Connor and made to go to Skynet Central as cover for a rescue John was attempting, but the tank was damaged by Terminators and turrets defending Skynet Central.
Other variants
- A different type of HK-Tank appears in the video game Terminator 3: War of the Machines. This variant lacked a "head" like the original model and instead had a cluster of large sensors on its front. It's arms extended out further than the original model and mounted triple plasma cannons. It is also much smaller.
- There is a concept art of the HK-Tank for the film Terminator Salvation. This version of the HK-Tank resembles an oversized version of the T-1 in Terminator Salvation. Note that this HK-Tank is mounted with miniguns just as well as the T-1.
- In Terminator Salvation, the defense turret at the perimeter of Skynet Central appears to be a modified HK Tank with its treads removed, while the torso mounted onto the wall. This allows it to rotate and effectively destroy incoming targets, but leaves it as stationary defense.
- The HK-Tank in Terminator Salvation game is an earlier model of the tank. It is armed with dual plasma cannons and dual machine guns. Unlike its successors, this HK-Tank did not have a visible head.
- The HK-Tank in The Terminator: Future Shock is called "Goliath". According to the game, Goliath stands close to three stories tall.
