Drones are small insectoid creatures that are covered in natural chitinous body [[armor]], although it doesn't provide much protection. If you look closely at a dead Drone, you can see small round technological/metal objects on its armor, assumed by some to be small anti-gravity generators,{{Fact}} or shield generators employed to make up for the Drones' obvious weaknesses. It seems, like the other ''[[Covenant]]'' species, Drones share a ranking system in colored armor but it is unclear who is the leader in a swarm. They do not interact with other species except to trade and serve in a military capacity<ref>[http://www.halo3.com www.halo3.com] - Species Bio.</ref> and their exact position in the [[Covenant Hierarchy]] is relatively unknown, although it is reasonable to believe that they are higher in rank than [[Grunts]] and [[Jackals]], but lower rank than [[Elites]] and Brutes. They are usually used as mechanical crews on ships when [[Engineers]] are not available, though they aren't as effective as [[Engineers]]. In jealousy and the orders to do so, they even killed an Engineer named  [[Lighter Than Some]]. After the [[Covenant Civil War]] began, almost all of the Drones took the side of the [[Covenant Loyalists]]. The Drones replace [[Jackal Ranger]]s, as they are much more suited to fly.
