I've seen similar systems at vast, corporate giants that absolutely sucked. They were awful simply because it didn't impact the bottom line all that much, so it got limited attention and limited funding. When such things do impact the bottom line, the systems are top notch and amazingly good. It's a matter of priorities. DoD's priority is protecting the country and its interests, breaking things and killing people when necessary, not keeping track of stuff. But much of the stuff they do have is lethal so it SHOULD be a priority. It's not just DoD. Various systems throughout the most powerful government on earth are antiquated and terrible. Congress and various departments just don't want to spend the money. It's not a priority.
