I think it is <i>far</i> more likely that the problem is that the Pentagon <i>doesn&#x27;t</i> want to buy enough platforms -- weaponized or not -- to make the market worth their time. Better to sell off 1&#x2F;16 of the business for some free cash flow and focus on the larger consumer market. After all, iRobot began as a DARPA contractor and already experimented with weaponized remote platforms; they aren&#x27;t averse to making tools for war, they just obviously don&#x27;t see enough cash in it.
