P.S. Will this apply to military aircraft also ?

I dont know the answer to that i only know about military hardware. Currently all vehicles on a military airfield do have trackers and so do the aircraft but they can be switched off with the Flt Ops permission. When flying out of cyprus for example they have them switched off to avoid detection. Its all very complex with the military and often RR aircraft will have theirs turned off, but other aircraft will have them on. It all depends on the situation.
Dont know about civil but i imagine its similair concepts.
