But we are also speaking of Dragon silk as we know it

That is the point. We hardly know anything about the properties of Dragon Silk. We've heard in the lab they measured tensile strength at over 2GPa. That is about it. Heck, we don't even know the properties of Monster Silk. We only know the properties of some of their first transgenics that were published in the PNAS and in their patent applications. Other than that, we are in the dark. And I'm completely fine at this point to not know. That is proprietary info that clients will be privy to. And once the material is available to the public, everyone will know. Fine with me.

The army wanted a custom fiber that was not as flexible.

Can someone please show me where this has been stated? It is something that has been said on this board for so long that people are taking it as a fact. That is what is bothering me.

They did not get the bid but we got to blow up some trucks

Sounds like a ton of fun! I'm interested to know what material they actually went with?
