> secure ways to communicate internally than off-the-shelf messaging apps
Some of the better of the shelf apps are as or more secure then many of the military internal developed solutions of many militaries. At lest when applied to use-cases outside of war zones and similar.
I mean there are top of the line security experts all around the world directly and indirectly contributing to apps like Signal. On the other hand the amount of scrutiny a proprietary military app will receive is limited.
But more important "for military purposes" includes a lot of situations you might not have considered.
Like more or less all communication done between two active members of the military, even if of duty, as long as work content might pop up in the conversation.
Or like they sending a member on break a message that due to weather forecast there is a good chance they will have to interrupt your brake for helping with "disaster relive" (which can e.g. include removing snow after some unusual heavy snow fall, or helping with cleanup after a avalanche). To just name some situations.
