So to sum things up, you're suggesting that either US army officials in 2004 chose UCP to weaken the US military in preparation for a fascist coup in 2020 OR they chose a US gov owned pattern over commercial patterns to make money (somehow)? And you're calling my response defensive and weird lmao

They said their guess is "money".
This looks like your trying to put words in someone elses mouth.
The examples of corruption in government seems to be just that, examples.
Im not sure why you try to act like they all need to be tied together somehow?
Seem pretty defensive & weird.

Alright so to avoid putting words in anyone's mouth, please outline how corruption could have caused the US to fast track a pattern it developed itself rather than one of the superior commercial patterns that they would have had to pay royalties on.

The US didn't fast track anything, individuals did.
As far as motive goes, there could be many reasons, and what might be able to motivate you may not have the effect on someone else.
Since you want something to help you understand motivation and how it relates to corruption, here is a link with some explanations.

Happy reading!
I'm sure no one is trying to destroy US democracy either or stage insurrections, etc. oh wait...
If I had to guess, I'd say it was intentional and all about money. That could make it illegal. Even if they didn't intend to lose in combat, it still gave US soldiers a handycap.
