When the Dalek race was successfully restored using the [[Progenitor]] device, the first five individuals of the [[New Dalek Paradigm]] emerged. Their casings were larger than their predecessors' and the [[Drone Dalek (Victory of the Daleks)|new drone]] was bright [[red]], but other than the [[colour]]s was otherwise no different from its superiors such as the [[Strategist Dalek (Victory of the Daleks)|Strategist]] and the [[Scientist Dalek (Victory of the Daleks)|Scientist Dalek]]. As with their fellows bar the [[Eternal Dalek]], the [[sense globe]]s on their [[base unit]] were coloured dark [[silver]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks (TV story)|Victory of the Daleks]]'') The New Paradigm's casing model was designated by the Time Lords as the "Type IX Dalek".

As with their fellows bar the [[Eternal Dalek]], the [[sense globe]]s on their [[base unit]] were coloured dark [[silver]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Victory of the Daleks (TV story)|Victory of the Daleks]]'') The New Paradigm's casing model was designated by the Time Lords as the "Type IX Dalek". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek Combat Training Manual (novel)|Dalek Combat Training Manual]]'') The new drones were alternatively designated as "Battle Daleks" ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Only Good Dalek (comic story)|The Only Good Dalek]]'') and remembered by [[historian]]s as the "Red Drones", with the very first [[Drone Dalek (Victory of the Daleks)|Red Drone]] being assigned command of the new [[army]] as the original five members of the New Paradigm formed a new [[Dalek Supreme Council]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'')


While the design of the red Paradigm drone was initially mass-produced, ([[GAME]]: ''[[City of the Daleks (video game)|City of the Daleks]]'', ''[[Return to Earth (video game)|Return to Earth]]'', ''[[The Eternity Clock (video game)|The Eternity Clock]]''; [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Only Good Dalek]]'') the [[Prime Minister of the Daleks]] chose ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'') to return to using the smaller bronze Time War model as the standard drone, with the larger red version being elevated to a higher position and given a more metallic burgundy colour. ([[TV]]: ''[[Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)|Asylum of the Daleks]]'', ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'', ''[[Into the Dalek (TV story)|Into the Dalek]],''; [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Dalek Project (comic story)|The Dalek Project]]''; [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dalek Generation (novel)|The Dalek Generation]]'', ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'')
Initially, the design of the Red Drone was mass-produced, serving in the [[War (The Only Good Dalek)|war]] with the [[Space Security Service]] and, in [[alternate timeline]]s, invasions of [[Earth]] [[1963 Dalek invasion of Earth|in 1963]] and [[2106 Dalek invasion of Earth|in 2106]]. ([[GAME]]: ''[[City of the Daleks (video game)|City of the Daleks]]'', ''[[Return to Earth (video game)|Return to Earth]]'', ''[[The Eternity Clock (video game)|The Eternity Clock]]''; [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Only Good Dalek (comic story)|The Only Good Dalek]]'') However, as the [[Eleventh Doctor]] inflicted a series of defeats on the New Paradigm, the [[Prime Minister of the Daleks]] chose ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'') to return to using the smaller bronze Time War model as the standard drone, with the larger red version being elevated to a higher position and given a more metallic burgundy colour. ([[TV]]: ''[[Asylum of the Daleks (TV story)|Asylum of the Daleks]]'', ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'', ''[[Into the Dalek (TV story)|Into the Dalek]],''; [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Dalek Project (comic story)|The Dalek Project]]''; [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Dalek Generation (novel)|The Dalek Generation]]'', ''[[Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe (short story)|Dalek: The Astounding Untold History of the Greatest Enemies of the Universe]]'')


Daleks used casings seen throughout their history on [[Skaro]], which had been remade and become the centre of their empire. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'') Dalek drones in bronze casings, sliver casings, and at least one grey casing were present at [[Dalek control]] in the rebuilt [[Dalek City]]. When the now-dying Davros wished to see [[the Doctor]] again, the [[Twelfth Doctor]], {{Gomez}}, and [[Clara Oswald]] were brought to Skaro, with Missy and Clara soon being brought to control and seemingly exterminated by the various [[Dalek variants]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)|The Magician's Apprentice]]'') but they actually escaped using their [[vortex manipulator]]s. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'') The Daleks then "destroyed" [[the Doctor's TARDIS]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)|The Magician's Apprentice]]'') but, due to the [[Hostile Action Displacement System]], she survived. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Witch's Familiar (TV story)|The Witch's Familiar]]'')
