Is it possible to use the floating disks drain weapon on a hacker unit. So that it could shut down power plants and suck the cash from refinerys?

No,

So you can use it only for flying units, but do you need second floating disk?

Then could a tank spawn an invisible aircraft that would fly to the target and use the disk drain weapon?

I'm not sure that aircraft can use drain weapon (floating disk is unit, not an aircraft) but you can try.

Advice: use also Immune=yes and LegalTarget=notags for this aircraft (invisible aircraft shouldn't be attacked and destroyed)

The idea of a spawned aircraft using the drain-weapon is interesting...although it'd be typical for Westwood if it only worked on VehicleTypes...

I tried it a minute ago... with harriers. It doesn't work. Harrier flies to power plant or refinery and hangs near it without attack.

Does anyone have an idea for a good hacker weapon?

Don't some mods have a Chrono Prison which can de-activate units? Perhaps you can have your hacker units do that, although that may be too much like Generals.

I don't know. Deezire's Chrono Prison worked just like a Chrono legionere. But using the temporal= code causes problems.

Harriers are not representive...you need JumpJet-stuff, and get rid of stuff like PreventAttackMove, I guess.
