We can have drones . Starting price of twenty five thousand . Once active the drone will be flown using the same camera's that appear in the drop ship , first person usage . They already have the tech on the play station home when you visit Meadows park . Somewhat similar concept except Weaponized .
Advanced costing forty thousand and Prototype drones cost sixty thousand . Camera's have to also be purchased at ten , twenty and thirty thousand . The camera's can send out a signal back to the host pilot and that signal in-turn in relayed to the team and placed not only on the battlefield map but if there are troops in the vicinity , that intel will be relayed to the scanners of the individuals on the ground , like an active scanner . The better the camera , the better the signal with an increased radius and accuracy . Don't know the numbers so don't shoot me , you can figure them out .
The basic drones will have no slots but only for the camera . The advance will have two slots , one high and one low and a slot for a small blaster , missile or rail gun but the computer usage will not allow more than a basic small caliber weapon , so no advanced or prototype small turrets . The prototype would have four slots with the ability to add sensors as well as shield stabilizers and armor hardener if you like , or maybe a shield booster as well as the turret and camera .
Once in flight the pilot is basically in a locked state so it's best to deploy the drone in a safe area . The usage of the drone would be something like turret usage , where your locked in and you have a sensor that would help notify you when an enemy is in the area but if cease to fly the drone , like if your about to be attacked , the drone would automatically crash , if it's not recalled or back in the area to help defend you . It is deployed just like it's recalled by activation and it appears in the activated area , just like activating a mod .
Computer and programming usage numbers are something that needs to be worked on as well . Shield and armor numbers are basic : shield eight hundred , armor two hundred . Advanced : shield a thousand , armor four hundred . Prototype : twelve hundred , armor six hundred .
This is just for thought , more work later . Would love feedback .

Waiting for logistics (armor/shield repping) bee swarm drones that I can task with repping (X/s) that one guy until he dies which will result me losing my drones.
But I'm more looking forwards PvE drones though

Personally, I think an automated drone would be cool, and also be more balanced.
Different setups
- Combat drone, fly around and shoot people
- Scanner drone
- Logistics drone, fly around teammates with a rep tool
Who cares what some sniper has to say

But should be destroyable with few shots from SMG. Aka glass cannon...

Would love to deploy 6 drones instead of 6 mercenaries onto enemies below. A problem might be giving them orders whilst in the DS though.
I agree they should be fairly weak, depending on how expensive they are. If they cost the same as a prototype dropsuit, they should be as strong as one in terms of HP, but weaponry should be really weak. And I think when drones are destroyed, if the owner salvages them you get back 80% of the cost. Enemies salvaging it could make 20% if the ISK that the drone cost.
Mainly I foresee the weak damage of drones to grow exponentially if they're left without being killed, because the longer they are left to shoot the more chance they'll deal more damage. So I could deploy them in a battlefield to distract the enemy, and whilst the enemy deals with the drones my squad could be sneaking up behind them to catch the enemies with their guard down.

I was going for some frailness but not too much seeing as how they will probably cost a pretty penny and prove to be a valuable asset . I was thinking about two or three rounds from an advanced swarm , but three automatic from a basic swarm . They won't be too fast but their maneuverability in the right hands might become key .

Yes , yes , might thoughts as well about the tactical aspect . Your other thoughts about the salvage and the HP's are key .
