Stealth Boat (22/19).
SS Drone (8/30)
With 335 allies , you probably already have enough units coming ahead of the SS drones. It's unlikely they're going to be brought into battle. As you rightly don't want them to join an attack, find out what the last units are you're bringing to fight. Buy units with a greater attack value than those, and clearly above 8, in order to keep the drones out.
Hard to give you specific units as I don't know the make up of your forces or your flag and any boost buildings.

While i can't Reccomend what unit will make up good stats for your army i will say that i would make sure i have a good surplus of units with higher than 9 offense so that if an "pvp event" rolls around you won't have to worry about ever taking them into battle with you. The Stealth boat if i remember was $750k so if you start to loose alot you won't be able to instantly replace.

My reccomendation make sure you have some SEALS 10/10 ($54K) to Cover any of your losses that can't be replaced of your High offensive units during battles....but some might look at that as a waste of resources.

No one wants units to drop quickly, and it's hard to say what will or won't. If it's just a case of keeping the Drones out, then you have a choice of cheap expendable units you can replace often.
Your Flamethrower soldiers are no use as they are the same attack as the drones (8), and with the airship hanger at L2, the drones will get called up to fight first.
Next cheapest option might be Submarines at (10/8) or Commandos (14/9)
I try and have a mix of cheaper units that I don't mind seeing die, just to protect the high $ or valor units.
I use a combination of Commandos, Submarines, Mobile Tactical Units, Avengers, Spectres, Eagles, Pavelows.

I think we're allies so drop by and check my inventory to get a better idea.

Maybe not as a major part of your army, but the stealth boat IS a requirement for missions in some of the upper level maps. So if you can afford them now, buy a few. If not, then wait until you need them and buy them then. I try to buy at least a couple of each unit when I unlock them if they are requirements for PvE missions. That way I don't get caught short when I try to run a mission.

stealth boat has a pretty bad casualty rate. the destroyer is a MUCH better option. you will never lose them.
