  That's pretty much what I meant, and you CAN actually use vehicles beyond 
just driving them (tanks fire, etc.).  I don't think you could really do much 
with a robot in a reactor beyond pushing things around, but that still opens 
up a few possibilities.
  For example, let's say you needed to blow a hole in a wall near said 
reactor.  You don't have any explosives of your own.  However, there IS an 
explosive barrel inside the reactor area (go figure), and a robot 
convieniently placed in front of it.  You switch to the robot's control and 
then proceed to "ram" the barrel until it gets near the crack which would 
trigger the explosion; and then, you shoot the barrel, exploding the wall and 
continuing your game.
