You are right on the money with your commentary. However we never sought money of any kind from the government. Everything we did was self-funded without any outside investment or government participation. In fact they came to us after (I'm guessing) reviewing our patents. We had an operating business with real products, real orders and potential investors so the scenarios you described don't apply. The lesson here is exactly as you stated. They can halt a program or an independent business operation "in the interest of national security" any time they want.
It such a crazy story. I've only shared parts of it here on this website as this thread topic is near and dear to what we do at Gila Defense. BTW we are not going anywhere. Every dog will have its day and hopefully we will have ours this calendar year. Not going to elaborate any further publicly online. With all that said, If we can help our war fighters have the edge on the battlefield we would certainly be honored to do so.
