When considering the military, always keep in mind that higher-ups will authorize projects and order their people to work on them, being unconcerned with the "reputation" of those being ordered to work. And I'd guess a lot of that work would be passed on to contractors that are more interested in the money than the reputation (and often do not even care if they are actively wasting time on frivolous projects, as long as they are getting paid).
In either case, if they fail, they can always blame the top brass for ordering them on a wild goose chase...
I wish this indicated there was a good chance to get something out of this research, but I admit I'm not optimistic.
Besides... if the military cracks it, they probably wouldn't tell the rest of us for
decades...
