Operational Overview

System role

The Surveillance Drone is a persistent perimeter observer. Its value is not firepower but reach: extending the sensor horizon of fixed posts, inspecting routes and raising an immediate local alert when a threat is detected.

Canon basis. The official vehicle list describes GloboTech Surveillance Drones as unarmed patrol systems used around occupied cities. They use searchlights and warning sirens to alert nearby units. Later releases introduced a separate armed Gun Drone, which is not the same platform.
