You know, this doesn't really sound that ominous. Especially when you read this in the link........................
DARPA’s “Underground Experimentation Request for Information” sheds slightly more information: “DARPA is interested in understanding the state of the art in innovative technologies that may enable future solutions to rapidly map, navigate, and search unknown complex subterranean environments to locate objects of interest.” Simply put, it sounds like DARPA wants to play a massive underground game of hide-and-seek because “the subterranean domain” is becoming “increasingly relevant for global security and disaster-related search and rescue missions.”
Maybe they have come up with some really cool tech that allows you to actually see in the dark, which may be the reason they are asking for underground facilities. Ever been in the bottom of a mine shaft at around 700 ft. underground? If you ever want to know what true dark looks and feels like, that is where you do it. Current NVG's are good in very low light conditions, but they still require some ambient light to work.
Why are you trying to temper the OPs paranoia?

Sure, go ahead and ruin some perfectly good conspiracy fodder. I was going to go with gateway to hell.
Sorry to be the voice of reason y'all.
Okay....................I'll change my theory and go with Billy Kinetta's. They had to have it in 48 hours, because the weaponized CHUD's start to decay and diminish if they don't see combat within that time.
The people that are being used to test the CHUD's to see how lethal they can be are homeless people captured in San Francisco. They use them as fodder so that San Francisco can clean up their turd problem.
That far enough down the rabbit hole for you guys?
