That sounds… Weird. Aren’t weapon systems always subscription based anyways due to the needs of training, spare parts, support, etc, which needs for military is always miles higher than for other sectors?
Also, subscription systems only work with online internet connections, whoever would want a weapon system with a remote kill switch for the manufacturer? Hells fucking no
That proposal sounds insane
