Note: There are two that on this site are indistinguishable. Both are for $4,000,000 to Magneto Inductive Systems Limited for MI-RAMS. However, digging into the appropriate spreadsheet from http://taxpayer.net/budget/fy08appropschart.html I see that these are for two different projects associated with MI-RAMS:
NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (SPACE)
and
Landmine Warfare/Barrier- SDD
