It doesn't have to be more than one riptide, just more than one model. So is a riptide with two drones a unit consisting of more than 1 model? If it is then an IC can attach.

The Drones added dont change the Unit Entry which designates how many models are part of the unit.

Are there any other examples in any other codex or faq in which we can draw a parellel?

Edit
I'm not being purposfully obtuse. I always read the can't join units that consist of one model as one model in the unit entry.

Hive tyrants with tyrant guard can have a prime attached.

Further, the rule doesn't say models that are 1+ in a codex. It goes out of its way to say units that only ever consist of a single model. Put it this way, if i point to your riptide unit with 2 drones and ask how many models are in that unit, do you say 1 or 3?

As an example, Tau crisis suits are listed as "Unit composition 1 crisis suit" then under options you can buy more, having up to 3 total.

If the drones and Riptide form a unit, wouldn't that bring the majority toughness down to the toughness of the drones?

Drones for riptide are T6.
