Terminal Guidance Drone
This is a very simple build. The simpleplanes drone is comepletely unarmed, so I got an idea. After seeing the acecombat 7 DLC, I decided to use this drone as a form of terminal guidance drone for heavy weaponry. The drone itself is armed with a punisher autocannon to distract the enemy until it reaches the target, when it does its true work. When its targeting is enabled, the drone sends a remote signal to an offsite artillery gun, which fires a shell to its posistion. The shell, which I should add is nuclear, detonates when it reaches the Drone. AG 1 to call in the strike. There is also a contingency system where the gun fires at the drone imediately if it is destroyed.
Ok turns out I didn't actually modify the template myself, I downloaded a modified simple planes drone already.

That is... an interesting concept. If my disclaimer was't clear enough, this is based off the system in Ace Combat 7 DLC mission 2, where there are drones which try to fly close to you in order to guide a shell onto you. Either way, I think an AI terminal guidance drone would be an amazing thing to dogfight.
