Ah, this military GPS system looks shoddy but expensive. Shall we try to break it?

What was the point?

Military equipment and medical equipment is expensive due to the extensive tests they all have to go through. The whole story ended up being pointless as they never said what was in it. Even if it was a generic mobile, the cost is due to the extensive testing they've had to shell out for. So it covers the R&D and testing.
