The Drone is a lightly armoured flying robotic engineer with a weak ranged attack. Their main purpose within the Alien Armada is to repair allied heavy robotic units in order to keep them gunning down your squad for as long as possible. They are nothing on their own but they are almost always found with extremely deadly Cyberdiscs and Sectopods during combat.
There is a foundry upgrade that lets you upgrade your arc throwers. The upgrade allows you to use your arc throwers to hack drone units essentially allowing you to add them to your squad for the rest of the mission. You can not use them for repairing your SHIVs but they still make good expendable scouts. They can also use a self-destruct ability in order to damage enemy units.
