You don't seem to be getting any comments on any of these. I'll say this. The 'robot wars' mentality has always been there in part of the military, or some who join the military. 'Saves lives' is usually what's claimed. But this sort of robot sounds very inefficient in the brutal climate of the desert belt of this planet. Without a preplanned, preprogrammed target, what happens when the signal is lost, or even momentarily jammed? That would be my only concern with these. For these, or otherwise it would seem wiser to produce more robotically homing drones, called 'cruise missiles', but which instead of following the terrain at slow speed and at low level, would instead reach the same heights of 50,000 feet and attack the preprogrammed target in a Mach 1 dive just as the dive bombers of WWII, or with smart bombs dropped from these same 'superRPVs'.

As for whether we are at war with Iran, it's a hot war, but not a declared war. Iranian forces are combatants and also supply the irregulars, which is the key for any such successful campaign - external supply. Yet we would engage in talks with them up to the last possible minute, as we did with the Japanese. This situation is more like the European wars, where incursions are made, there are conflicts on the border, but the armies do not yet directly engage. Clearly the nations are at war. But there seems always time to pull back from full scale invasion, and here the embassies are still maintained as far as I know. Yet Iran is bold, and continues to boast of its progress in developing the anti-Israeli bomb. It agitates and provokes and seems recklessly indifferent to its own role is causing further escalation.
