Do you have any evidence that any networks accessible by personal crew devices (i.e. cellphones) are connected at all to the ship's control networks?

- trhway 9y agoare you kidding? Check out "smart ship" for example: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ship/ddg-51-upgrade.htm http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ship/ddg-51-u... Everything integrated, and as long as at least one component talks wireless ... and there are actually a bunch of them, and as i mentioned, being an actual smartphone is only one of the features of those cheap smartphones bought at the local port :). One can easily imagine that the ships which rammed (and/or some other ships close by) the destroyers could have carried cell towers and/or GPS spoof-er which were promptly, say, dumped overboard. And leaving all that hi-tech aside - plain old $2K/bottle cognac, drink of choice of the 7th fleet :) https://federalnewsradio.com/tom-temin-commentary/2017/03/face-navys-7th-fleet-scandal-malignant/ https://federalnewsradio.com/tom-temin-commentary/2017/03/fa... , http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/investigative/2016/05/27/the-man-who-seduced-the-7th-fleet http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/investigative/2016/05/27/th...
- Johnny555 9y agoI don't see anything there that suggests that the ship runs on a wifi network. The closest thing I saw was "Shipwide interior wireless communications system", but that doesn't imply Wifi, and is likely just a digital trunking radio system -- not something a consumer Wifi device will be able to connect to.
