Combat wasps are drones, comparatively small attack spacecraft controlled by sophisticated guidance systems. Used by Adamist starships, Blackhawks and voidhawks alike in space combat, these are usually fusion or antimatter powered and carry a range of submunitions, including kinetic projectiles, gamma-ray pulsers, nuclear (or, illegally, antimatter) warheads, or ECM equipment. Combat wasps can be designated for offensive or defensive duties, and their range appears to be around 3000-5000 km.
