This paper reports on the Batalin- Vilkovisky quantization technique used to provide a manifestly Lorentz covariant quantization of the {alpha}-model describing the D = 4 heterotic Green-Schwarz superstring propagating in a background superspace consisting of minimal supergravity entangled with a tensor multiplet. The ultraviolet finiteness properties of the one-loop effective action are shown to be identical to those obtained earlier using a manifestly non-covariant gauge-fixing condition.
