When ever I see “F-35” I think Edsel
All these whiz bang technologies won’t fix the F-35.
The idea they want to proliferate the (DAS) Silent Watch system, causes concern for the technology falling into other nation’s hands.
It would seem this technology should be kept highly secret. Why are we willing to put it out there for China or Russia to be able to obtain the tech?
Why are we even talking about it?
Perhaps it’s the potential to make other nations realize we are formidable, but we’ve been that before. I doesn’t last long as other nations advance too.
Granted, this is a cutting edge technology.
I’ll bet China won’t publicize what they’ve developed.
Gee I sure am glad we’re telling the world about this.
So, you can ‘look thru the floor’ and see the SAM coming at you?...............
The future is a guy with a mountin dew in the cup holder next to his control, miles or time zones away “flying” the aircraft. This technology will help make that a reality.
At some point the pilot is overloaded and this seems like a sure fire way to do it.
If this information is available you can bet that at some point someone will want to have it linked back to the REMFs who want to micro-manage.
They'll be busting pilots for shutting off half this stuff so they can concentrate carrying out their mission.
JMHO
