But as you know, you know, the budget process takes time to work its way through Congress, and we hope to have, you know, more insights in the coming quarters there. And certainly you can read the comments from Secretary Hegseth and others with respect to direct energy. Got it.

And just as a quick follow-up, the product there, or the Hays scalable kind of high-energy lasers family that you launched, I guess, today, and Can you talk a little bit about, you know, just kind of the positioning there versus kind of some of your other products, just, you know, how you're thinking of that? Thanks.

Yeah, thanks for asking that. It's something that we've been working on and very excited about this product family. It's our platform for scaling to higher power. And so we're starting with the greater than 50 kilowatt class, but it will continue to scale. And that's one of the key benefits to coherent beam combining. It also provides for a brighter beam, a laser beam that can be focused you know, more effectively. And then finally, it provides for the ability to correct for the atmosphere. So all three of those features we believe are very important. And it also is in a form factor that is smaller than, than other products. And one that we're, you know, we have integrated into the strikers we've talked about and can be integrated in other platforms. So it's an exciting announcement and we will be making further announcements as we continue to, you know, migrate that product family. Appreciate the call. I'll jump back in the queue. Thanks. Thanks.
