The semi-autonomous Mining Drone is used by the Syndicate alongside the Sunder mining vessel in a supportive role. Not being much more than a Mining Laser with an engine stuck to the rear of it, these drones do not last long in combat with other ships due to how fragile they are.
Drones do not come equipped with a hyperdrive. You cannot carry a drone unless you have a ship in your fleet with a drone bay.
