An investigation has revealed that surveillance drones used by the Royal Navy unknowingly transmitted technical data to an IP address located in China. The communications, described as "control signals" intended to verify the equipment's functionality, originated in part from Chinese components integrated into the cameras. The British Ministry of Defence maintains that no sensitive data was compromised, but has cut off the internet connection to the affected equipment, reigniting concerns about the security of military supply chains.
