Drone "UAV" Back

so the thought of a drone would revolutionize warfare in sieges. now when i say drone i don't mean it has missiles or bombs but more of a UAV. so the premise of this "drone" would be it could be launched thru certain move craft (I.E. truck, zep, AA, IFV and acc) when launched it would teleport user to the drone where they can fly around and makes pings (beacon light) for roughly 30 sec. this light will be visible to all on the side of pilot. for example siege a vs siege b A sends a truck into claims and drops a ping all of A can see it that are in the area B has no idea where pings are. these pings could mark drill spots for cannons, focus fire points, inc enemy, vehicles anything really. these drone will fly for bout 60 sec and in a radius of 150-300 blocks. these drones will not be able to harm players, structures or vehicles. these drones should also be able to be shot down by aa.

I mean this can be done already by simply using a zoom mod or a telescope or just using the live-map and marking coordinates for your artillery to aim at. Plus, this seems a bit unbalanced as I assume a player cannot be killed if the UAV is shot at which defeats the purpose of it. Plus, it just gives way too much information to attacking armies which, in my opinion, should have to work a bit harder to figure out where to target their batteries; something that is already ridiculously easy.

Ashes it's no where unbalanced it a technological advancement in military strategy. All it does is a birds eye view of the environment not everyone can see what's going on in the drone view it can be shot down. This movement creates a way for more strategic moves and planning on both sides

It's an unnecessary addition for something that can be done easily by looking at a live map or just sending out a scout.
