Thought this was interesting. Lockheed Martin initially resisted Israeli requests to allow modification of the F35A to use existing Israeli Air Force electronic warfare systems. Apparently, it's now happening with IAF receiving two F35As (redesignated F35I) and will install plug and play features regarding their own systems. I just thought it strange that a seemingly benign term in computing now takes on a darker complexion.
