Electronic Warfare (EW) Is EW the motivation for Veritas? They say US d o d is 10 years ahead techwise than regular public. What does BB have that Veritas wants?
If you care about electromagnetic spectrum..... Here's a US d o d primer on EW:

Simplified.....From L3 Harris
Electronic warfare is employed in three ways: offensive, defensive and supportive measures. In other words, the spectrum is used to attack the enemy, to protect friendly forces and to provide critical situational awareness that aids warfighter decision-making and increases the likelihood of mission success
Might be interesting info. Some dot connecting perhaps, seeing how Veritas acquired Raytheon and with BB partner Qualcomm seriously in the mix. BB's EW patents alone would vault Veritas into #2 position on this list....
