    I’d expect also because having your drone tech in thousands of pieces when its finished is probably a desirable thing. Reuseable may be environmentally friendly, but it lets the enemy follow you home and halves your range too.

      The real advantage to something like this is the drone you flew for 10 minutes to reach the enemy can take out 1-2 drones with the shotgun, then destroy itself taking down a third, while a drone that only takes down one enemy drone means 10 more minutes getting the next to that area.
