Which is very much in your best interest, if you want the drone to live
after someone shoots it with a hold-out pistol.
Then again, there's the armor rating hole in the Rigger 2 rules, using
which you can put as much standard (non-concealed) armor on your Body 0
drone as you have money for... Not that I would allow anyone to get away
with this, though :)

Same here; it strikes me as a bit odd that you can't increase the Body of
a vehicle in any normal way (like by adding bracing or something) but
coating the thing in diamond will do just that. For Body 0 or 1 vehicles I
can see how it might help, but beyond that...?
