how easy would it be for some one to hack into the new f35 and fly it or eject the pilot or find the planes position by just hacking into it thanks to that system that shows where all the friendly units are system
I'll bite, locating the aircraft would be the only plausible one of those, just need to gain access to the datalink, which I'll have to assume is very, very difficult, and if the datalink was compromised the pilots would just turn it off, detecting datalink emissions is technically plausible but impossibly impractical.
Hacking in to the flight computer should be impossible by any means that exist in the real world, it is probably not coupled in to the data systems because there's no reason to do so. You could use space magic to induce current in the flight computer to flip bits the way you want, but this is pure sci-fi.
Ejecting the pilot should be entirely impossible, the seat is probably entirely separate from the rest of the aircraft and entirely mechanical apart from the thermal batteries it might have. With space magic you could, once again, induce current in the circuitry to fire the gas generators but this is once again entirely sci-fi.

Absolutely impossible

Why not just use SAMs to shoot these paper planes down instead?
I knew it wasn't that hard

Great plan there mate.
>>31647298
Why not rape the pilot and take his eyes out and kill his family?
>>31647206
Very easy if you have access to source code.
Impossible if you don't.
>>31650296
Nope. Even with the full source code you'd need the correct and current encryption key to access the data-link.
Even then, most of what OP wants to do are things that can't be done remotely. Seeing where the aircraft is and what it's sensors can see would be a huge advantage, but would be practically impossible for an opposing force.

are you proud of that post? proud of what you did there? moron.
even if you had an encrypted feed, you would still need time to decrypt it, by which time your window of opportunity has passed.
please make sure your brain is engaged before clicking post next time. idiot.

I'll probably get stuck flying helos, but at least there's a chance. Wish me luck guys.
>>31651707
Depends.
Brute force? Practically impossible.
Side channel / implementation? Good luck trying to even get access to test it.
>>31647298
>use missiles to shoot down planes
what a concept
There's absolutely no reason for any modern aircraft to have its data link and mission systems integrated with its vehicle systems.
>>31650678
Even if they aren't hauling payload for it, their sensors are still running SEAD anyways.
