Hacking can be a component of the attack and might be effective in furthering confusion, but ultimately given that Menento is a backwater, its technology isn't very sophisticated. I'm not sure you want to confuse and blind the French on Menento more than you already are, though. You want them to be clear-eyed about what's going on, the magnitude of forces arrayed against them, and how dangerous it would be to fire even a single shot in defense. If the French are so confused about what's going on that they are unable to adequately assess the situation and start shooting in the dark, that's going to make the quick and bloodless capture of the planet less likely.
