US commanders say that in reference to the drones positioned at Sigonella: “Not all aircraft are armed. Ours are not.”

Our enemies thank you for that information.

Drones all have missile racks. Armed or unarmed is a simple decision to make. The drone is there, the missiles are there. 2+2=4.

But it takes a POTUS decision to change the standing ROE and send an ARMED Predator over Libya. Which he could have done. Or sent armed F-16s from Italy in one hour. Etc.

See “Cross-Border Authority.”

I am getting so tired of hammering this point over and over and over.
