What if the chinese or russians are able to hack into our subs and launch OUR missiles?
Ah, there you are,
. Minister, Chief of Staff.
Are you aware of our ATAC system?
ATAC, sir? Automatic Targeting Attack Communicator?
Uses an ultra-low frequency coded transmitter... to order our submarines to launch ballistic missiles.
Five days ago, our spy ship, St. Georges was sunk... in the Ionian Sea.
She was equipped with ATAC.
Now, if that transmitter were to fall into the wrong hands... it would render our entire Polaris fleet useless.
- Every order could be countermanded.
- Worse. Our own submarines could be ordered to attack our own cities.
