unfortunately, some of these govt offers aren't actually offers. more like "we'll install them, and but you maintain them ..."
like cities getting those nice "tanks". the tanks are free, but the $50k or so a year in upkeep, is on the city. it's basically just a "loan" as the govt can "borrow it" as they want. which means a nicely distributed set of equipment. it's a good military strategy. plus pushes costs back down the line.
