How well would these systems perform if someone blew a hole in the ship,
disrupted communications and power to the units. Something that is
reasonably supposed to happen throughout the lifetime of a warship.
I would imagine, multiple redundant nodes and data paths, multiple
independent power sources. Systems designed to slowly degrade in
performance rather than fall over because someone entered a ZERO into a
date field. Or do you know different.
