Well that's one way to do it
> It is even possible that such a setup, with a pylon adapted for the weapons being employed and paired with a tablet, would not need any data bus wiring at all. The pylon could contain a hardware module that handles this with some sort of a short-range wireless device, like a Bluetooth system, that connects with the pad in the cockpit wireless.
I guess in war you do what you have to. I'm assuming cost and time savings are the motivator here, but very curious how this balances against getting the right personnel to code this up. Bypass normal security, familiarity, and experience requirements typically involved in aircraft & munitions work?
