Is it really a product already? There are a number of renders but the 'products' link does not work for me.

That page uses the older versions of "SWaP-C2 Optimized[1]" meme, I would guess it might have not been updated in 3-5 years.

1: Stands for "Size, Weight, and Power [and] Cost [and] Cooling Optimized", defense industry equivalent of self awarded gold medal stickers on product packaging, apparently

Not sure if it's being "actively" used in real-world deployments yet, but it does exist.

		Ok, I found a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j18K7MZdyY8 That looks like it is definitely real but also extremely fragile and there is no mention of any performance specs. But that's 3 years old now and no product(s) available yet.
