The compute backbone, the sensor architecture, the data fabric linking systems across the formation: these are no longer features bolted on after the fact but are actually the platform. The companies supplying them are being asked to solve problems that look less like ruggedized hardware integration and more like building a real-time data center that has to operate under armor, in contested environments, and inside the power/thermal/shock/vibration limits of a combat vehicle.
