Is there a non military grade missile?

it's just a launch vehicle if you remove the warhead

(fun fact: an easy way of disposing of nuclear ICBMs is to just remove the nuclear warhead, put something useful on it instead, and shoot it off into space)

That's not a good idea. It could easily hit a satellite. A few to many times and that satellite can't be used anymore

that's why launch schedules are a thing?

And do you think lance corporal Darren understands that?

What exactly do you think “something useful“ means in this context?

Are NASA rockets missiles if they're guided? idk, I'm a fake, a phony, I can't even name the top 10 sexiest jets
