Umm...DirecWay is a consumer project with consumer-level reliability. While I prefer not to work with satellites, some carriers (VSAT, for one), have business-class operations that allow bidirectional high-speed bandwidth with latencies of about 600ms. That's high, yes, but not 2 seconds. And given that the Air Force may be putting more than $120/month into this deal, I'm guessing their performance (not latency, necessarily) could be higher.
