Let me get this straight -- there is graft, waste, and incompetence in the defense industry??

  The men in power always abuse that power, more or less. We need oversight but politicians are not very interested in doing oversight because corporations use their money as free speech helping their favorite politicians get re-elected, because of the Supreme Court decision that allows that to happen. So we need a more informed population to stop corruption from happening, but some politicians don't like the idea that people should be able to read whatever books they want.

  That's probably true, but tangential to the absurd point made above. There is almost zero reason to include robust locks or immobilizers on military vehicles. They're either occupied by soldiers with guns. Or in a locked facility, guarded by soldiers with guns. Or abandoned on the battlefield (in which case, they should be scuttled, but shit happens and sometimes you need to GTFO ASAP).
