More on the Swedish Stealth Ship

Posted by michael on from the fnord-in-the-fjord dept.

Dr.Knackerator writes "The BBC is running a story on Sweden's new carbon fibre stealth ship, the Visby. As well as being the first stealth ship, it is controlled by 'state-of-the-art computers using a Windows NT operating system'. 'But Kockums and the Swedish Navy deny it could be sabotaged by hackers and say that even if it did they could fall back to traditional steering and navigation'." We had a previous story about this as well.

    "state-of-the-art computers using a Windows NT operating system"

    Are they trying to be sarcastic or something ?

    Ultimately this has a "Titanic" ring to it.
