RECON DRONE;
- one-man piloted. No weapons system. Perhaps consider letting it drop Motion Sensors, Mines, Proximity mines,...
RECON DRONE shows enemy & friendly to your Empire. Your drone covers (Via Cert Tree) a radius of; 20m/40m/60m/80m/100m. This drone information goes to ALL Outfit (or Squad) members wherever they are on the Continent. Recone Drone sighting(s) goes out to ALL Empire Friendles in a 750m radius. Flying Range of Recon Drone varies based on weather, lighting, day/night, enemy fire or countermeasures,.... efffectively controlled by R/C pilot at ranges up to 600-750m ..... sometimes, if you are on high ground, you can approach close to 1,000m search (and return) ranges.

ASSAULT DRONE;
2-man operated. One flies the drone, the other operates the weapons system. Choice of any 2ndary unit off of vehicle pool, or any primary weapon off of Lightning.
Three Cert classes of ASSAULT DRONE; Stealth, Armored, Attack. The weapon platform allowed increases for each class, but your ability to avoid enemy detection or fire greatly diminish. Attack" Drone is only Cert Tree which can use Lightning weapons. Imagine a Skyguard Drone hovering at 700m altitude. hmmmmmm.....
