Shield builds autonomy for fighter pilots. They flew the F-16 autonomously. They built the VBAT, which is a drone that so far seems like the primary US-made drone that is able to survive in the contested Russian EW environment in Ukraine. To the point of just getting out of our own way, how do the Ukrainians decide what drones to buy? Once a quarter, they have a field test.

They create a test range. They jam the crap out of the environment. Anyone who wants can show up, fly your stuff. If it doesn't fall out of the sky, we might buy it. And Shield showed up to one of these things, and they were the only one who didn't fall out of the sky.

No requirements document, no red tape. The facts, this is the equivalent of forward-deployed engineering. You go to where the problem is and it either works or it doesn't work. You taste the steak, you either like it or you don't.

I don't know, if you had to write a requirements document of what is required in a steak that you're going to like, it misses the essence of, I don't know, when I taste it, it either is great or it's not.

Yeah, I think it was a great bet by Joe very early on to take an entirely different approach to this gallium-based semiconductor material to generate walls of energy. that actually almost act like cyber effect. So unlike it's not one-to-one where you're firing a munition against a single drone, you're really putting a wall of energy.

So it doesn't matter if it's one drone or a thousand drones, it's going to have the efficacy of being able to stop them and block them.
