'''Missile drones''' carry [[missile pod]]s. Shocking.

What's ''really'' shocking is that the Tau only deploy them with [[XV-88 Broadside|Broadside]] battlesuits (well, [[Games Workshop]] ruled that they do). Apparently, swarms of S7 AP4 was too awesome for a [[xenos]] army. Nonetheless, if you want a swarm of light shooty artillery and anti-armor, these are the Drones for you.

A Missile Drone can be upgraded to be even tougher. The '''Shielded Missile Drone''' was born in a moment of brilliance, when Earth Caste engineers realized that they could stick two systems on a single drone. The brilliance was immediately canceled out when the Ethereals decreed that the new drones would only be used by [[XV-104 Riptide|Riptide]]s and their variants. [[FAIL|Bummer.]]

Kinda strange their missile racks are not vertical and twin-linked. Three missiles isn’t much though nothing to scoff at and it’d make the drones more cost-efficient. But, eh, the difference between realism and miniature wargaming.
