A drone is an aerial technology used by A.L.I.E. and were presumably created by Becca Franko.
A.L.I.E. owned a large fleet of small drones which she used for aerial reconnaissance and security. The drones are equipped with an arsenal as seen in "A Lie Guarded." Drones are mostly seen hovering above the mansion on Becca's Island.
They were also how the A.I. discovered the coming Second Nuclear Apocalypse, which led to A.L.I.E. creating the City of Light.
During the Second Nuclear Apocalypse, many of the drone fleet were all destroyed on Earth, during this catastrophic event.

A drone appears in "A Lie Guarded".
In A Lie Guarded, Abby's team – consisting of her, Jackson, Raven, Murphy, Emori, Nyko, Luna, Miller, and three Ark Guards – arrive to Becca's Island.

Using the downed drone, Raven is able to deactivate the entire fleet.
In The Tinder Box, Raven asked the computer in Becca's lab to show her the drone fleet's radiation detection software.
In Praimfaya, Raven and the others are watching the death wave go past Polis through a drone's camera. She also mentions that according to the last drone, the wave is accelerating.Gallery[]
Notes and Trivia[]
- In the episode called "Wanheda (Part 2)," when Emori mentions that A.L.I.E. appeared from one of the drones, it is implied that one of the drones used a hologram to make everyone see A.L.I.E., and because of this, it is implied that the drones are the reasons why the Grounders heard rumors about the City of Light, after A.L.I.E. spread the rumors to make everyone join her.
