What is your fixation with "hardware designed for military use"?

Does something designed for civilian use hurt less if it hits you
than something designed for military use?

I believe, that if the hardware had been designed for civil use,
safeguards would have been designed in. In a war theater there is no
need for those sorts of safeguards, so training operations employing
hardware not designed for civil operation is inappropriate.
