The DX-6 Remora Drone Fighter is a drone flyer used by the Tau Empire. It's packed full of stealth technology, so it can support Stealthsuit and Pathfinder teams.
Remoras are armed with twin-linked set of long-barrelled burst cannons and two seeker missiles for attacking armored ground targets. It also comes with a networked markerlight so that it can launch its own missiles at targets of its own choosing.
They are very lightly armored, but they don't need to take enemy fire on the way to battle. Instead, they are often carried in large numbers by a Manta or in pairs by a Tiger Shark AX-2-2 (their wings can fold up and over the main "dome"), which will release them from high above the battlefield and control them from afar.
Note that the real-life Remora is a kind of fish that hangs on to larger fish for transport and protection, though they aren't also artificially intelligent stealth fighters.
