| abstract | - The drones are unmanned, highly- agile attack craft. Controlled through a larger Control Ship, their sole purpose is to eradicate any technology other than their own. They accomplish this by swarming their target from every angle, relying on sheer numbers to overwhelm the target's defenses. Though the drones are relatively simple in their attack patterns, they are capable of basic tactical reasoning. They will alter their attack patterns to target the more vulnerable areas of a ship, divide into groups to engage multiple targets, and defend their Control Ship against threats which could potentially damage it. They adapt quickly to the strategies and technology of their current enemy: after only one major encounter with Destiny, they learned to detect the activation of the Stargates in order to track the ship's location. There seems to be three distinct models of drones. Two are roughly the size of the Ancient shuttle, while the third is small enough to be stored inside the shuttle and lifted by a small group of humans. The drones possess a forward-firing energy weapon. Though not powerful enough to penetrate the shields of the Ancient shuttle, their numbers allow them to overcome Destiny's shields within minutes. One shot was sufficient to destroy a large section of a Destiny-model Stargate, but this may be indicative of the gate's more primitive design than the power of weapon itself, in addition to unknown circumstances. The drones themselves are fairly fragile, able to be taken down with a single shot from one of Destiny's turret weapons or sustained fire from an automatic rifle. (SGU: "Resurgence", "Deliverance", "Common Descent", "Blockade") Like most similar spacecrafts, they are capable of operating in both atmosphere and the vacuum of space. Not only do they possess advanced sensors to detect radio signals or Stargate activation, but they also use spotlights and can detect sound. If needed, they can levitate a few meters above ground, moving very slow or not moving at all. (SGU: "Blockade")
