But they will fire at a Hellfire armed drone yes?
Also sometimes it seems Hellfire armed drones will turn up before SEAD aircraft. Anyone else had this happen?

Suhiir is correct, the UAV is sparred from area SAM fire, according to the game guide we read:

"...SAMS are now filtered on warhead size versus spotter planes and UAVS. Large SAMs will no longer needlessly engage small spotter aircraft or UAV's. These will be left for the smaller SAMs."

However, armed drones are classed as fighter bombers, as such area SAMs will fire on them.

Units in the bombardment menu perform thier action in unit order so from top to bottom of the bombardment screen. Therefore buy your SEAD after artillery but before other air assets.

Yeah, that's the ticket. At least before any strike elements.

Also, it is literally top to bottom within formations, N0 before N1, N2.

And, you may find Timed Objectives mist interesting.

Also, the sort functions in Scenhack are cool too.
