While too expensive to be bought outright, RIA could be leased by the entrepreneur from the US Gov't, cost of the lease used as a credit against the charge for producing military output and R&D work.

In a Merc: 2000 type environment, with reduction of apparent gov't expenditure paramount, It's possible. The Entrepreneur & his working group can also look for graft/selling off stuff left laying around RIA as a bonus...
