So you need 2 hours of both encrypted and unencrypted data at same time to make this attack work, is this feasible? And if you just flip the switch on devices to use more bits in the encryption the attack becomes unfeasible. Piss poor that NATO never replied to them.

They probably replied but:

- anything serious is probably highly classified as is everything relating to COMSEC.

- The standard seems to be a US-one used by NATO (MIL-STD as opposed to a STANAG).

- I know ALE is used for link establishment but maybe it's going to be superseded in the military for the next-gen radio equipment?

Shouldn't actual session keys rotate all the time, to prevent exactly that?
