Thanks to Hedy Lamar data encryption made a great leap forward. Our encryted data links could and would be hardened to prevent this defensive assault.

I wasn't talking about spoofing / hijacking the signal - Encrypt all you want, but if the signal isn't getting through, it doesn't really matter. Also, consider the problem of lag time. Pilot to Pilot on the scene is already trying to get inside the others decision loop. Now add a remote pilot and two-way communication lag time to the equation.

And I'm not a real big fan of sophisticated, autonomous AI's running the show either. But that might just be too many SciFi flicks on my part.
