The operator replaces the C2 modem with a newer model that has different network behavior. The aircraft still flies normally in a short test. Can the old safety case remain unchanged?

Not automatically. Assess whether the change affects assumptions, failure modes, latency, coverage, cybersecurity, power demand, or approved configuration, and update evidence as required.

Explanation

A safety case only describes the configuration it actually evaluated.
