US Defense Secretary Ash Carter is pushing for the Pentagon to invest some or more of its money into innovating their tech with the help of Silicon Valley-based technology companies, as Bloomberg reports.

According to the same report, the new $611.8 billion defense policy is designed to make it easier for the US Defense Department to collaborate with Silicon Valley technology companies, which are known to avoid the highly complex acquisition procedures involved when dealing with the military.

Moreover, to further sweeten the deal, the companies involved in technology trading with USA's military will not have to share their data regarding proprietary pricing with the public as it's currently imposed.

This follows a Reuters report from August 2015, saying that the "Pentagon is teaming up with Apple, Boeing, Harvard and others to develop high-tech sensory gear flexible enough to be worn by people or molded onto the outside of a jet."

Since Apple already uses technology capable of tracking a number of elements in the environment such as pressure, position in space, and health data for the user utilizing the device, it won't be a surprise if the Cupertino tech giant is one of Pentagon's picks for a secret contract where it would have to provide some of its wearable devices or technology for military use.

As Trudy Muller, a spokeswoman for the Cupertino giant, said in an e-mail to Bloomberg a few years ago, Apple has an “ongoing commitment to deliver a secure platform to our enterprise and government customers around the world who deploy iOS devices on their networks."
