😅 Why would the #Netherlands 🇳🇱 defense minister say this out loud‽ Even if he is exiting his position, this is unwise.

👉🏾 BIG: Dutch Defence Minister Gijs Tuinman hints that software independence is possible for F-35 jets. He literally said you can “jailbreak” an F-35. https://x.com/clashreport/status/2023077430840172571

The F-35 is more than just a fancy fighter jet with fancy software. There is a lot of support that goes along with it (like satellite 🛰️ navigation). Without that support, you have a bloated F-22.

@darnell @dwasmkuk Cool! Let’s install Linux Mint on European F-35s! Is there a Linux Mint jet fighter version?! 😉

@alex_p_roe @dwasmkuk 😂 I was thinking about what they would replace the software with, & Linux is probably the most realistic option.

@darnell @dwasmkuk We jest but, via Wikipedia: Red Hat Enterprise Linux is used in various defense systems for its stability and security. So #Linux may be the way to go.
