So the carrier of this droid can target lock any friendly ship the droid isn't on.

So M9-G8 can either be used defensively, or be can be used aggressively. In an early turn you can acquire a Target Locked on a friendly ship and while both the M9-G8 carrier and the ship he has Target Locked the Target Locked ship may reroll an attack die.

I think M9-G8 is most typically used offensively, Tarn Mison is an example where he's mostly used defensively.
