Sure, but what kind of range do you get with tiny drones? Although they could probably be delivered to the vicinity by some other vessel. Like cluster warheads but with a large swarm of exploding autonomous drones.

Quite a bit more than you would think. Remember, besides the potential for a drone carrier, these drones wouldn't need power for the flight back.

A non-rechargable battery can also have significantly more capacity. A suicide drone likely doesn't need to be recharged.
