ICAO world is behind the curve yeah but not a century behind.
OPS tech is old protocols like X25 and X400 but on IP, not on serial cables and switches.
Networks are using fiber channels, servers are using VMs, kubernetes clusters and stuff like that. It’s old tech on modern hardware.
Even the voice coms went full VOIP (at least for gnd-gnd com) during the last decade.
Yes we stay behind the tech curve on purpose, but FAA lagging so much behind the rest of the world is just another proof of their lack of investment.
