Note the various Group W and Wilkes domains and the ADCS.com domain. There are also a number with the word "defense" and various others related to companies mentioned in the article. All of these are hosted on the same server or at least the same LAN, meaning they all are physically hosted at the same premises and possibly on the same box.

Why would all of these different defense contractors be hosted in the same place? (That's a rhetorical question.) These people are, in some ways, very very clever but in other ways (openly hosting everything in one place for example) astoundingly naive. I guess they've just gotten cocky and over-confident.

One of the domains, Electharman.com, caught my eye. If you click on the link you'll get an "under construction" page. But if you look at the whois info for Electharman.com you'll see an image of the original site which shows that "Scott Harman" was running for Poway city council. Has the name "Scott Harman" been mentioned in connection with any of this?
