What are some of your thoughts based on what Sherm has just talked about in terms of the integration of EMSO and I.O.? ?
29:15
Yeah, I mean, I think one of the things I want to jump in on is the world is looking at Ukraine right now, right? We are watching a new kind of war happen with all the UAVs and all the drones being flown around.
29:26
And EMSO is right at the center of that.
29:28
I actually had in a previous job, I worked for a small commercial delivery drone company.
29:33
And we went and talked to the Ukrainians and tried to say, hey, how can we help? What kind of drones do you need? And they're saying, look, we need cheap drones that we don't care about losing because we're denied.
29:42
Right.
29:42
And that is not an IO problem.
