Canada's EEZ (5.6M km²) has only 34% persistent sensor coverage. US defence data dependency at 0.71. Only 25% of NATO-eligible spending is domestic. The Aikido AO60DC dual-use platforms solve all three: wind + AI compute + sensors on Canadian-built platforms, 100% NATO-eligible, 100% domestically retained, zero US dependency. Flips capital outflow equation while closing Arctic surveillance gap and reducing Golden Dome dependency.
