 The drone itself only has basic functionality, sensors, and an over-abundance of FTL propulsion. The padded front section can be used to act like a tug and push objects in certain directions while the edges of the container itself use standard latch-on bolts to connect it with the same tie downs used for normal starship containers. Inset into the top and bottom center are power, data, and coolant connections that can also extend and connect automatically. The drone itself only has basic functionality, sensors, and an over-abundance of FTL propulsion.

 ===== History and Background ===== ===== History and Background =====
-As part of the [[character:wazu:c5]] development, [[character:heram_j._wazu]] started containerizing many systems and modules with the end goal of being able to very quickly assemble a ship using off the shelf containers. While the original [[character:wazu:starshipenginecontainerye38]] served its function well, one with more thrust was needed for certain military applications as the original container was more suited for pushing slower combat ships rather than faster interceptor types. Since the trouble was already being made to create stronger engines, it made sense to also add in some self-control capability for upgrades down the line. The initial plan was to use the upgraded engine container as a tug to help move complex shapes, or to quickly re-position the containers to move allied ships. However this feature also allows for certain upgrades to be added down the line such as weapon, protection, or surveillance systems to allow the container to double as a multi-function drone. +As part of the [[character:wazu:c5]] development, [[character:heram_j._wazu]] started containerizing many systems and modules with the end goal of being able to very quickly assemble a ship using off the shelf containers.
