Drone Beacons are modified Chimeran drones captured by the Wardens. They were used by the Wardens to trick the Chimera from finding Graterford Prison by broadcasting an "all-clear" signal to nearby Chimeran patrols. They only appear in Resistance 3. The Drone Beacons were designed by Herbert Sawicki.
After Joseph Capelli was captured by the Wardens, Herbert Sawicki plotted a prison break by disabling the Drone Beacons in order to bring the Chimera to attack and distract the Wardens long enough for Herbert to free the prisoners.
