    Those are two different ways of looking at the same thing, since either way lets other countries know how to do things undetected.

      Hm. I would imagine if their tech was so advanced, it’d be possible other nations wouldn’t be able to compete with it.

      Of course, keeping them in the dark would let them advance even further while their adversaries ‘relax.’

        Even the best tech has its weakness’s and blind spots, for example if memory serves me right modern body armor isnt exactly immune to arrows and bolts. Plus some tech produces weird blind spots by being too good, if you’ve got a radar that can detect every bird in 100 mile radius you need to filter out birds but now small drones are also most likely filtered out.

          Yes, but that doesn’t mean enemies’ technology is advanced enough to exploit it.

            I used the crossbow and bow example with body armor for a reason. Brute forcing something with seemingly simple tech can be rather effective. Sure your super fancy computerized lock may have a million combinations and can change its code at random but ive got a blowtorch from the 50s and a hammer. You see what I mean simple tech can exploit more advanced tech if used properly.
