“Four Chevy Tahoes do not cost $4.5 million. The vehicles themselves ran about $600,000 combined — roughly $150,000 each. The remaining $3.9 million bought something far more interesting: FalcoNet, an Israeli-built surveillance app”

Texas state troopers are using Israeli-made "Falconet" systems, mounted in Tahoes, to covertly intercept data from all mobile phones within range as they drive.

La Mélancolie
d'après Étienne Maurice Falconet
Musée du Louvre
Réduction en biscuit de porcelaine tendre en première grandeur d'un marbre de Falconet présenté au Salon de 1763. C'est sous le directorat de Louis Simon Boizot, le successeur de Falconet à la Manufacture, que fut réalisé en 1774 le modèle en terre cuite, précédant la création des premiers biscuits.

From this week on the foreshore, my first Thames cannon ball eroding out of the mud between some concretion and an ancient timber. I’ve found muskets & canister shot, but never one of these. Known as a ‘falconet’ cannon ball because it was fired from a falconet, a fairly light, manoeuvrable gun 1/
Just eroding out of the mud between concretion and an ancient timber on the foreshore, and disguised among gravel, a small cannon ball, traces of corrosion visible on its surface. In my hands, the muddy cannon ball, known as a falconet, once extracted from its resting place on the foreshore. After some careful ‘knocking’ I’ve managed to get rid of some of the corrosion and rust, to see the original iron layer of the spherical falconet cannon ball in my hands. Turning the falconet over in my hands, I can see a hole eroding out of the bottom due to centuries of immersion in the river. The hole would have been covered by a nodule once it had been cast, the nodule has eroded away. Falconets did not have gunpowder in them.

And by the time Nelson faced Napoleon’s fleet at the Battle of Trafalgar on 21st October 1805, HMS Victory (the second ship with this name) had moved on to bigger guns and bigger cannon balls, replacing the smaller falconet because more fire power was needed (photo of a replica falconet below.)

Yea lemme get 4 Tahoes and 55 spy systems 55 spy system licenses 55 antennas 55 Fourth Amendment violations 55 nuggets 55 different spy systems 55 tots
Naturally, it wasn’t just $4.5 million for four 2026 Chevy Tahoes, though the SUVs themselves were still bizarrely expensive at $150,000 a piece. Here’s how the purchase order breaks down: FalcoNet Core System (x4): $2,850,000 Unlicensed FalcoNet core system: $200,000 Delta 5G Perpetual license for FalcoNet V (x4): $280,000 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe (x4): $600,000 FalcoNet Backpack core V2 – 6 x BTS (2G/3G/4G/5G): $355,500 Flexable [sic] antenna kit: $27,000 Cognyte PA Ranger: $105,000 Unlicensed FalcoNet Backpack core V2 – 6 x BTS (2G/3G/4G/5G): $70,000 Total PO Amount: $4,487,500 So, yeah, that’s how (and why) Texas police spent $4.5 million on four Tahoes. They’re bristling with really expensive peeping equipment.
