Even the, you know, you're like hundreds of dollars per drone versus, and that's counting all that
you know, between $10 and $20 million of costs and all of that, all of that all in, you're still down at hundreds of dollars per shot once you start to have utilization of the system.
So there's two ways that someone would decide to use our system.
One, it would be a lot cheaper than going the missile routes because if I'm using it all the time, it's going to get a lot of utility and that's going to drive my price per shot way, way, way down.
So then that big sort of bill up front is much, much littler.
Or...
What was it gonna say show either one that you're gonna drive that cost per shot down or two you're gonna understand That that target that you're defending even if it doesn't get like a million drones a day or whatever if that target even has A chance of being attacked by drones.
It's so valuable.
You don't even want the chance to happen So I think those are going to be the two
really sort of robust applications we get at right away, where either one, they're going to protect something extremely important and vital to be protected at all costs, or two, it'll be a very high op tempo of many, many drones flying in per day, and then that'll drive the cost way down.
If you want to stick a big expensive thing like this in like
some port in Louisiana or something like that on the Gulf, it would probably be overkill at this point.
At least at this point, and still we start driving costs down as we start to scale and we start to get into production, then they become more and more ubiquitous.
But first movers and first users will probably be
you know, very high value targets at this point.
Yeah, it very well could.
We have a system that we design prototypes.
We never got into production with it, but we have several prototypes of something about the size of a toolbox.
It weighs about 40 pounds, so it's not light and it's not super light, but you could get a soldier to carry it or you could get a couple people to move it around with a squad.
The range is limited.
