This may be a hint that the Hawks have unsecure or vulnerable data links. Remember the Chinese hacked the JPL in November and in December, the Iranians claim to have taken control of the drone that landed in Iran.

My argument has long favored a human in the machine and this may be an example of why.

Its called GPS spoofing.The Department of Transportation (DOT) has warned that the civilian GPS signals (the only ones available to most government users and all private users) are not secure. Few GPS users are paying attention.GPS spoofing is a extreme threat to national security. But it can easily be solved.
