No. Because RoHS does not have any jurisdiction over exportation or
importation of banned substances in military hardware.
This means that any country can bomb any other country indiscriminately,
whether they have RoHS (or REACH) controls in place or not, and it will
be perfectly legal. I don't think they were trying to find a method to
make it easier to recycle.

Wouldn't it though be illegal to bomb a country with lead-free
legislation in place unless the weapons systems were compliant?

Military is not EXEMPT, it is OUT OF SCOPE. The directive does not
apply at all to military (other than the indirect massive impact the
directive has had). The directive has no legislative control over
military electronics.

No specific alloy is "forbidden" in military electronics.
In general, solders and fluxes are categorized per and must comply with
J-STD-004, J-STD-005, and J-STD-006.
Specific solder alloy types are called out on assembly prints and BOMs
per MIL-STDs and Weapon Specs.
Military, traffic control, industrial safety, some medical, and many
other products are exempt per RoHS and IEEE exemptions.

Check out
Air Force's Airworthiness Advisory AA-05-01 It isn't very forceful in
the wording, but is the closest thing I could find so far to support my
cause. If anyone knows of any documentation forbidding lead free in
military products, I would sure appreciate a heads-up.
Thanks,
Dave

I believe that I remember someone mentioning a military end-use
exemption from lead free requirements. Am I remembering correctly or is
this just wishful thinking? If it is true, can anyone point me in the
direction to get it in writing?
Thanks!
