The only references I could find to the company were disturbing: articles describing the company as a leader in research with hypersonic weapons. The first was a Los Angeles Times piece from a few years after 9/11 that discussed the “new tech being deployed on old battlefields.” Among the weapons referenced was a “sonic bullet” that was in reality a narrow beam of targeted sound. The developer proudly raved about his weapon’s ability to produce “the equivalent of an intense migraine headache that is just totally disabling.”
