Yes, they're supposed to be friendly.

However, they're still hostile towards the player for some reason.  The
most notable example would be Mission 6, where you get a penalty for
attacking some "neutral/friendly" that shoot at the player.  The robot you
found on Mission 13 would be the other case.
