In my personal opinion, the current image feels bit JAFAAC. It you were to just show the image of a Reaper UCAV, I wouldn't be able to say to you it's actually a drone of sort. Mainly as it doesn't really show it being controlled by someone. I feel like the picture should either show a person controlling a mechanical drone or showing someone with multiple drones (example picture note , though not necessarily a suggestion). Just showing a drone might not the best idea.

You can see it doesn't have a cockpit, which shows it has to be controlled by something else.

I don't have a problem with the current...don't care for the suggestion. For discussion's sake, here's some pics of Tau attack drones: 1, 2, and the Falconer Predator.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the current image. It's clearly unmanned and clearly armed.

I also like the current image. It is a picture of an actual attack drone. *The* real attack drone of the moment.

Saying it doesn't illustrate is like saying an image of a Porche doesn't illustrate "sports car" because no one is spending too much money on it to impress a date in the picture.

I like 4.1., to be honest. It shows the drones with other pictures for reference, for example.

If it's decided a replacement is needed, 4.1 is probably the best choice. But again, I don't think it's necessary.

I prefer 4.1 over the current but that is mainly because I always prefer pictures from works rather than from real life where possible.

I could go with 4.1, but I don't have an issue with the current.

Don't think the current is bad enough to go, but the suggestions in 4 are better. Throwing in Hunter-Killers from Terminator.

I'd be fine with either the current or 4.1. I don't like any of the other suggestions.

Do we need to have a crowner to determine between current and 4.1? There seems to be a slight split.

I like both. On one hand, I like 4.1 better. On the other, I don't see a reason to pull the current.

Health sure is versatile. It's possible to be both light-headed and dim-witted. At the same time, no less.

Look's like the two candidates are evenly split. If the crowner winds up a tie, I say just leave it as is.
