Pentagon Spy Cam Modeled After Maple Seed

The Pentagon is funding research at Lockheed to develop a tiny rocket-based spy camera that's MODELED AFTER A MAPLE SEED. (Hey, why didn't Canada think of this?) According to Scientific American: "The single-winged device would pack a tiny two-stage rocket thruster along with telemetry, communications, navigation, imaging sensors and a power source." The tiny rocket could be blasted in clusters over war zones or disaster areas to take video and identify the locations of people to kill or save, respectively. I want one.
