Pipeline run for this draft
Generated note
Reuters reported the $25k was a monthly connection fee per terminal, not a hardware price. It also said the Pentagon buys military-specific Starshield service from SpaceX, though Starshield terminals can use Starlink satellites. https://m.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/exclusivepentagon-spars-with-spacex-over-starlink-price-hike-during-iran-war-4709045?ampMode=1

🇺🇸 SpaceX just hiked Starlink fees for Pentagon LUCAS suicide drones from $5k to $25k per terminal. Pentagon pushed back (drones only use it for minutes/hours), but with no real alternatives during Iran ops, they agreed to nearly doubling each drone’s cost. Only about 20% of SpaceX's revenue comes from government, giving Elon massive leverage ahead of the June IPO at a $1.75 trillion valuation. Source: Reuters
