Mach 2, what I'm sugesting is that it's suprising to me that being able to connect a RAID to the data processor in a JSF post mission via fibre and pulling off recorded imagery from the sensors is not supported which is what was implied. I'd have thought that you would want to be able to do that for many reasons. Taking that FMV and meta data and sticking it into an IA workstation and exploiting it again seems to be something you would reasonably expect to be able to do. I don't see how UK armed forces use of that would be breaking ITAR rules if standard NATO formats were used , more so if Lockheed were the ones supplying the workstations and transfer kit as opposed to them giving the interface and control specifications to a UK subcontractor as that would neccesitate transfering IP.

Seems like a bit of an unfortunate problem.
