These drones have been in service with the Galactic Alliance for hundreds of years.
They were developed specifically for indigenous peoples like the Double Corona Empire, who have a certain level of technology and aerospace, but not all of it.
These drones are aerodynamic in appearance, and although their own power is not enough to break through the gravity of most planets, their propulsion systems can be used both in space and within the atmosphere.
In order to save space in the hanger, the UAV adopts a folding wing design, and each one can carry two close-range combat missiles or four EMP Stingers.
The head of the needle is made of magnetized self-sharpening material and has considerable penetration power after reaching maximum speed.
This penetrating power is more than enough to deal with most lower civilizations. In order to prevent over-penetration, each needle can even be programmed before firing to control the sharpness of the head.
These needles are specifically used to accurately target shielded electronic equipment of low-end civilizations.
Their working principle is to penetrate the opponent's shielding layer through physical collision, and then release electromagnetic pulses directly from the inside.
Faced with the overwhelming number of drones and the even greater number of stingers, the mecha troops of the Double Corona Empire were simply unable to resist.
Their final counterattack only managed to shoot down a few drones, after which most of the mechas were hit by needles and paralyzed in a series of electric sparks.
But not all mechas were paralyzed.

7:45 galactic time
The first round of capture attack begins.
Within the next minute, most of the mechas were paralyzed by the needles.
But the mecha named Gold No. 1 is an exception.
Blue 1 used itself and its handheld shield to block most of Gold 1's needle attacks, while the rest were intercepted by Gold 1's shield.
At the same time, local antennas intercepted voice communications from enemy mecha units.
Due to the fleet's lack of parsing database support, the content cannot yet be parsed.
But then, the Golden Mecha No. 1 (hereinafter referred to as the Mecha) burst into amazing acceleration and rushed straight towards our fleet.
During the sprint, the mech continuously fired with its handheld assault gun and shoulder-mounted 120mm smoothbore cannon.
The shooting lasted for about three minutes, with a total of about 30 smoothbore cannons and thousands of assault guns hitting the flagship's newly deployed protective barrier.
This round of attacks caused the total strength of the protective barrier to drop by 0.35%. Since the computer determined that there was no threat, the shield recharge mechanism was not activated.
These particles, which are in an excited state due to absorbing energy, are then replenished on the barrier by spontaneously falling back under the action of the barrier's antenna.
The mecha then rushed into the fleet and abandoned the assault gun in the form of a rifle in its hand, and instead used the plasma sword originally carried on the back of the mecha to carry out close combat attacks, trying to cut the porcelain gold armor on the outside of the spacecraft.
The fleet did not respond, but maintained its original formation and used sensors to observe closely.
About five minutes later, the target shifted to the less well-protected industrial ship. However, according to feedback from the crew of the target, the external sensors did not detect any damage to the armor.
Finally, the target was caught in the tail flame of the light cruiser Victoria and disappeared. A flash of light suspected to be an explosion was detected when the target disappeared.
A spherical spacecraft suspected to be an escape capsule was subsequently detected flying out in the direction tangent to the tail flame.
The spacecraft was visibly severely burned and was initially determined to have lost power.
…
Five minutes after the accident, the rescue team arrived at the scene and captured the escape capsule.
When the escape pod was captured, the hull had been severely melted and the crew inside fell into a deep coma.
About ten minutes later, the injured were sent to the medical cabin of the flagship Aleph for rescue.

Diary of the Captain of the Aleph
After confirming again that we had been forced to fight with the natives and had captured prisoners, the old men finally provided us with translation equipment.
They sent us a data package of about 200 terabytes, which contained a complete set of big data language training models and an artificial intelligence translation program.
My goodness, our fleet is still using a paid network!
These bureaucrats won't even connect us to their dedicated line!
…
Damn, the source files were designed for use on large quantum computers and weren't even designed to run on low-end computers like ours.
In order to run this program successfully, I had to shut down all the automated equipment on the Aleph and free up all the memory for this bottomless pit.
Even so, the photon processor on the Aleph ran at full capacity for over an hour before producing a comparison translation table.
The programmers on board re-embedded the reference translation table into a new translator, and we were finally able to communicate with the alien natives.
I want to see what kind of cattle and horse civilization dares to take the initiative against us.

After comparative translation, it has been confirmed that the mecha comes from a civilization on the planet Zeli B that calls itself the Double Corona Empire. According to existing information, this civilization has achieved unification across the entire planet and possesses technology equivalent to the pre-space age level.
At present, the Bridge Technology Department has completed the initial penetration of the civilization's Internet. According to the collected information, the technological route of this civilization is very strange and unique in the entire galaxy.
