Should Samus come to close to the Aeromines, they will explode as a possible last attempt to defeat her, though the damage is extremely minor. Aeromines often appear in groups. One or two at a time, they will disable their shield and fire. Simply one shot will eliminate one drone. If the Aeromines become a complete nustance, Samus may engage Morph Ball and roll to them, as they simply explode dealing little harm to her.
