Periodically the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has staged mock attacks against facilities, and the faux intruders won half the time--

Shouldn't the failed faux intruders have died? Do the defenders use mock defenses? Mock bullets?

Do the defenders use mock defenses? Mock bullets?
These excerises are not a realistic scenario from what I have heard(some is from TV, so is suspect:)
I am under the impression that they give notice of an attack in the near future, and issue security and attackers special gear(I would guess something like the MILES gear that military uses for their training exercises.). This just doesn't seem realistic to me, but maybe I am wrong(hope! hope!). Because if I am not, then the odds are really worse, because this is their odds against a known attack within a specific timeframe, which would make a 50% sucess rate look really bad.
