Wonder if the battery these gizmos use are available worldwide? How vulnerable does a grunt become, and how mission incapable without a battery or an unplanned wiring fry?

I fear this could easily become the next gold-plated fizzled and failed weapons system. Finally buried in cost overruns and failure.

I sure hope not, for too many then placed in harms way if it fails and sets back modernization for a decade.
