Strange to see the NSA using Java, maybe this is really old?

Some of the comment matches in the code search suggest at least portions of the codebase goes back to the very late 90s.

Edit: Wikipedia has a table with 1.0 being 2003 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghidra

Yes, it’s from the late 90s/early 00s, but why is it strange to see Java?
I suppose they should be using rust yeah?
