The stance they’re advertising evidently is the contractual partnership they chose to enter - that they agreed to take their money and provide them support on their integrations.

Why are you simping for them without basis? Your absurd comparison would only make sense if the franchise the killer shopped at continued to provide them service and used them in marketing materials as a marker of trust or prestige.

But how do you know exactly in what capacity they are using this technology? The USAF flies in millions of tons of humanitarian aid and personnel every year - far beyond what any other country, military, or organization does solely.

It's not a "simp" as you say, only pointing out that they are a rather large customer who is free to implement the technology in any way they wish. You're letting your political bias undermine any sort of credible argument.

What political bias exactly do you think I’m exhibiting? An anti military bias is valid regardless, there are successful companies that choose not to engage

Btw my post was asking what the air force is using it for. I know they do a variety of things that’s why I asked.

edit: Thank you, below, for the details - so my guesses were more or less "spot on" (communication systems connectivity for things they put in the air) or less charitably, within the bounds of the details in that link.

Military contracts are public information. From the looks of their SBIR profile they have been doing R&D for resilient communications applications.

Thanks - unbelievable how downvoted this question is when the answer is indeed that they are helping with weapons development

The rest of this silly argument aside: the USAF flies millions of tons of humanitarian aid as a PR move for itself (helping justifying the existence of a standing "professional" military, a relatively new thing for the US) and to further the foreign policy interests of the United States.

It's not altruistic, it's strategic to the core.
