I am not saying that someone walks in off the street into a base. What if someone in the assembly line or a mechanic for the army is really a double agent. I guess there are bigger problems to worry about at that point but it could still be costly.

And I thought WPA could be broken rather quickly if you see the handshake between the client and the host. Or does that only apply to WPA(1) not WPA2?

The Apache was just a random example, a disgruntled worker may be able to get into a cRio that would normally require authorization without it and cause a massive system to malfunction etc. With the number of things that run on it, anyone from a double agent to a disgruntled employee could cause issues.
