Yes, I know about Management Engine type stuff end reading data from network connected machines in the "off" state.
That's a bit different from switching off F-15s mid-flight
It probably wouldnt switch off an f-15. Like I said it just disables the processor. So it would probably just switch off critical radar and other computers within an f-15.
Through the F-15's internet ?
No it's completely independent part of the processor controlled via an independent communication system.
My guess is it's tuned to a radio frequency or something. If it was through the internet it would be detectable.
