What technology do we use in this situation, should not the code have been burned in a rom that could not have been changed by hacking. How long would to take to burn a full os for each mission?

What if we tried and failed? This from the net. Iranian electronic warfare specialists were able to cut off communications links of the American bat-wing RQ-170 Sentinel, says the engineer, who works for one of many Iranian military and civilian teams currently trying to unravel the drone's stealth and intelligence secrets, and who could not be named for his safety. Using knowledge gleaned from previous downed American drones and a technique proudly claimed by Iranian commanders in September, the Iranian specialists then reconfigured the drone's GPS coordinates to make it land in Iran at what the drone thought was its actual home base in Afghanistan. -*-*-*-* If you mislead the device to think it was in safe territory it's natural instinct to destroy itself in hostile land is no longer active. If their communication signal/freq. was changed in the hack could we have detonated the device if we wanted to? Does the President show strength to other countries that we didn't loose control of our drone by stating that "he didn't destroy it." -- Stephen Russell 901.246-0159 cell [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/7A48289C1F0A4AB4AFD919C59FD7BF1C@jerryfootePC ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
