hector@lemmy.today 3 days agoYou are misunderstanding the nature of these kill switches that are thought to be in there. It’s not going to be labeled, and it’s not going to be visible to inspection, but something no one would ever know if it never gets tripped. Thought to be a one time fusible link. Idk if it’s true, but I believe it.

Im not misunderstanding at all, but do you really think governments make multi-billion dollar purchaces without haveing technical experts go over things with a fine tooth comb. Again if only one customer nation, of which there are dozens, found something like this it would wipe out the entire export market for US high tech weapons, why would they do that when they have effective soft power ways of achiving the same thing?
