And what precisely would be the difference between a "peacetime" UAV
and a "war theater" UAV?


One would be designed to be safe for domestic operation over, and in
proximity to, the public; the other would be designed for its efficacy
in the war theater with public safeguard concerns subordinate..


I assure you UAVs used for domestic operations are safe.



I will go way out on a limb here and assume you know the military
doesn't use live ordinance for training outside of ranges established
for that purpose.


I would certainly hope that to be the policy, but I don't see how it
relates to the Raven UAV in this instance. The Raven is equipped with
two video cameras, and no ordinance that I am aware of.


Only UAVs operated by DOJ are equipped with ordinance.
