Nice analysis, fren. Fully agree.
God we pray for your healing for those injured and their loved ones. May the truth come out and justice be done.
Amen.
Plausible.

RC-12X Guard Rail
Under this contract, Northrop Grumman will continue upgrading and enhancing about half of this fleet of 27, bringing 14 Guardrail aircraft to the RC-12X version and extending their operational lives to 2025.
The new RC-12X will feature basic aircraft improvements, via a new glass cockpit and structural upgrades. Its core improvements, however, will involve sensors, electronics, and software.
Indeed, Northrop Grumman hopes to reduce the plane’s payload weight as it swaps in smaller, more powerful electronics. It happens to your computers; it happens to theirs, too. This extra space, and the ability of more advanced components to do “double duty” in some cases, will allow the program to address new threats and situations as they evolve.
Over the life of the program, the idea is to improve the Guardrail’s ability to process and exploit intercepted signals, while adding precision geo-location from a single aircraft (“Arrow”), “multi-INT” capability to perform more than 1 kind of intelligence gathering mission, upgraded situational awareness and communications by tying it into critical Army systems like DCGS, and improved overall systems performance. “Arrow” is touted as being especially important for reducing the time from signals interception to a strike on target, and the firm is also advertising the ability to find and track multiple high-value targets at the same time.
All aspects of the RC-12’s work are closely guarded, and even modern photos are rare. There are rumors that the RC-12X may contain parts of the Advanced Signals Intelligence Payload external link, originally developed for the U-2 spy plane and RQ-4 Global Hawk UAV external link.
Northrop Grumman says that the upgrades will be implemented in an incremental, evolutionary approach rather than a “big bang to standard configuration.” Despite this incremental approach, Northrop Grumman ultimately intends to provide a single standard RC-12 configuration for the entire fleet.

from Anon's notes on Goals & Techniques of Electronic Warfare:
Goals and Techniques
Prevent armed U.S. drone from being hacked, jammed or coopted by enemy
Challenge potential adversaries’ electromagnetic systems (EMS), imposing a cost
Use electromagnetic (EM) weapons to destroy, intercept or jam approaching enemy missiles, drones, rockets or aircraft — far less expensive than physical interception by missiles
Improve electronic warfare (EW) modeling and simulation to better prepare for emerging weapons systems
