It is of interest to note that Raytheon is listed on MSTs website as(is or was?) a partner. Perhaps this patent is a product of that relationship. I am inclined to agree with you Mossey, MSTs products and technology are getting wider press from a range of larger well established defence / enforcement companies. In my view, the chess pieces seem to be in place for a good move.
