← TechnologyWhich risk increases when a fighter jet's fly-by-wire system suffers undetected latency?
A)Pilot-induced oscillation is heightened✓
B)Engine stall becomes more prevalent
C)Fuel consumption increases drastically
D)Structural icing is accelerated
💡 Explanation
Pilot-induced oscillation risk escalates because negative feedback control experiences a phase delay, therefore amplifies unintended pilot inputs rather than dampening them as intended. Because latency creates instability, A is true rather than scenarios created by other system malfunctions.
