 Theory of Humor as an IFF - Evolution, Function and Nature of Humor
Other planes, those not identified as friend, are not really part of that network at all but, for some purposes, it may be useful to see non-friendly but neutral planes as lower still on the hierarchy, with enemy craft at the bottom.
And, in that competition, humor will help these groups to decide who are their friends and who their enemies.

 Passive IFF: Autonomous Nonintrusive Rapid Identification
The instrument was conceived as an identification, friend or foe (IFF) system in a battlefield setting, where it would be part of a targeting system for weapons, by providing rapid identification for aimed weapons to help in deciding whether and when to trigger them.
The time taken for this identification process would be less than the time needed by a human or robotic gunner to acquire a view of, and aim at, a target.
The inherent parallel-processing speed and capability of the optical correlator would be exploited to obtain rapid identification of a set of probable targets within a scene of interest and to define regions within the scene for the neural processor to analyze.

This is accomplished by having the IFF dipole antenna mounted across the opening of the feed horn of the radar antenna.
