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.

Good point.

(I was going to make a hammer reference but I figure that's probably worn thin.)

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.
