I'm pretty sure i know this already but, when equipting either a smart missile or a pair of burst cannons do they count as passengers like regular gun drones or are they considered as part of the vehicle they are attached too and share the vehicles stats even though they can detach?

They are normal vehicle weaponry in all regards.

Both of them fire as a part of the vehicle. the drones fire on there own BS though and are considered passengers IF the tank is destroyed. (they dont have to take saves after a penetrating hit or are forced to disembark.)

The burst cannons are only just weaponry (you made it sound like you thought the burst cannons can detach as well... witch they cannot do.)

Thats all i need to know. Sorry for the stupid question but i have a friend who feels that all drones that are carried on vehicles are all ways treated as passenders.
