So essentially trying to leverage their privatized speed and funding to create defense products that are more that are easily able to be purchased by the United States government. And the idea is to speed up that process of procurement. Because as you know, the United States and this is this is one of the things that I think is talked about quite a bit.

I've written written some stuff about this for for my newsletter is that the procurement process is so slow that it is oftentimes really difficult for for the United States to deal with things on the ground. A good example of this would be during the Global War on Terror, we had sort of this really recent past of Desert Storm. So Desert Storm was sometimes known as the very first space war.

And the reason was we used, what's Google Maps, you know? GPS? GPS, that's right.

Yeah, so we used GPS in order to locate various forces that were on the ground, and we used that for targeting, and we used it for command and control to great effect. Annie Jacobson writes about this in her book, too. So it was the very first space war. As we went into the global war on terror, the thought was we would be able to leverage this outsized technological advantage.

I think in Annie Jacobson's book, The Pentagon's Brain, they talk about having a battlefield that can see and hear at the exact same time. So we had these enormous technological capabilities and we still got bogged down.

I didn't read that one, but I love her work. Shout out to Annie Jacobson. I hear you're in Los Angeles. Let's hang out. But, you know, it was undone by IEDs. It was undone by, you know, a couple pounds of fertilizer and an off-the-shelf cell phone. And so study after study was done on how do we get- Right. And this is fourth generation warfare, right? This is insurgent warfare.

And so how do we get around these IEDs? And what you had at a certain point was you had the soldiers on the ground actually retrofitting their own vehicles with what they called hillbilly armor. And it was armoring that was going to protect them from the IEDs. And so let's fast forward maybe four or five years into the global war on terror.
