Sure, those are highly desireable specs for a tuning range and a decent instantaneous bandwidth of 1GHz (and I assume 12 or 16 bit, it is not labeled). But at $50k it's not really something that anyone but a corporation or an institution would buy.
Unfortunately even the SDRs that human persons buy have gone up wildly in price over the last decade. In 2013 it cost $8 shipped for a 2.56 MHz instantaneous bandwidth 20 MHz - 1.7 GHz 8 bit rtlsdr SDR reciver. In 2026 it's now $30-$40. A ~4x price increase.
Things like the 20 MHz instantaneous bandwidth 10 MHz - 7 GHz tuning range 8 bit HackRF One were at one point down to $100 for the clones. But now are back above $200 and new ones are selling for $400 ($100 more than the kickstarter in 2013!).
It's a bad time for SDR and electronics in general.
