Eddie,
No battle-tweets!
The preceding explanation makes more sense. Explaining recent military acronyms with technical jargon further clarified by pictures of gear I've never seen probably did not get the point across as efficiently as you hoped! I do appreciate there's a limit to what you can provide in terms of privileged information but indeed Google (and sites like FAS.org and Wikipedia) helps to fill in the blanks.
To summarise then (and bing it back to the original point) for modern US systems if some sort of verification or authentication is missed then the system (depending on which one it is) will either effectively shut itself down or be reduced to limited functionality. Basically, it becomes sort of like a glorified map locator tied into your hand-held GPS.
