Since 2012, Sky Research was investigation related to corruption and bribery of a federal official. The bribery investigation found Sky Research had provided a federal contract officer with vacations, food, alcohol and sexual encounters with attractive female office assistants, whom were explicitly hired for this purpose, in exchange for rigging contracts and signing off on fraudulent expense claims to the government. In 2016 Sky pleaded guilty to conspiracy.
