"Planes do not work like that". Making a statement like that makes it sound like you would know.

Is it likely there's a remote kill switch? No. But doesn't mean one couldn't exist.

Another commenter accurately pointed out the real problem with using American military hardware is being reliant on the integrated cyber warfare systems exclusively controlled by America

You’re the one claiming without evidence there is a kill switch which is again not how the planes work and also ignores the actual problem we already know about

I'm not the one talking with such certainty. What is known is that they are present in civilian cars. No reason why they wouldn't slip one into a weapons platform. You are so sure it doesn't work that way you better have first hand knowledge or look foolish.
