They are almost certainly going to be hard-coded to receive instructions or a keep-alive message directly from cloud servers, their telemetry and video streams will be processed on company servers as part of the contracts with the military, to keep an always-on service agreement in place. To prevent the DOD from doing the same, or foreign governments.
