WHAT THE PUBLIC RECORD SAYS / 02
Keep stated facts, attribution and evidence limits distinct.

Official award record
The U.S. Army's 29 September announcement lists Digital Force Technologies among ten multiple-award IDIQ recipients and identifies a US$500 million base IDIQ award. Military & Aerospace carried a related report on 8 October.
Stated programme context
The Army says the awards support Domestic Shield, the JIATF-401 C-UAS Marketplace, and other counter-drone requirements. It describes Domestic Shield as supporting risk-prioritised U.S. military facilities and assets.
Vendor architecture is attributed
DFT says it will offer SeraphimOS-powered C-UAS systems through the vehicle and describes an architecture designed to integrate multiple sensors and third-party systems. These are company descriptions, not independent project results.
PROJECT READING / 03
Use the record to frame evidence questions, not to infer outcomes.
Keep an IDIQ separate from delivery
An IDIQ is a contractual vehicle. Individual orders, quantities, delivery locations, obligations, acceptance, and field outcomes require separate public evidence.
Keep integration claims attributable
An open or multi-sensor architecture description does not itself establish interoperability, safety, performance, regulatory fit, or a project outcome at another site.
Review procurement in local context
Procurement and integration discussions should define authority, roles, interfaces, protected services, testing, acceptance, and written validation for the actual project.
