There’s that angle but its kinda scary that someone in the DOD is pushing more and more military technology into police departments.
It makes perfect sense. The cops can work out all the bugs. They have a see thru wall type of sensor that works like radar. It’s supposed to be used in hostage situations and works a lot better than heat sensors because you can spot weapons.
This came about because of Iraq (heck the whole Middle East) where a lot of the dwellings have concrete walls surrounding them. Thermal sensors are useless in that type of scenario.
