The Marine Corps Is Getting Its Very Own 'Eye of Sauron'

Amazing or just scary?
by Task and Purpose

The Marine Corps has tapped a new Silicon Valley defense firm to develop a "digital fortress" of networked surveillance systems in order to enhance the situational awareness of security forces at installations around the world.

Marine Corps Installations Command on July 15 announced a $13.5 million sole-source contract award to Anduril Industries — the two-year-old defense technology company and Project Maven contractor founded by Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey and several former Palantir Technologies executives — for a new Autonomous Surveillance Counter Intrusion Capability (ASCIC) designed to help secure installations against "all manners of intrusion" without additional manpower.

NOT good! NEVER good! If there has ever been such a thing as a traditional scam,this is it.  Place a low-ball bid no one can match,get the contract,and then half-way through demand double or triple the money to modify the crap work you did and create a workable system.
