Navy Charters Review Of Remote Minehunting System

摘要

The Navy has set up a team to review the service's troubled Remote Minehunting System after the Pentagon's top weapons tester flagged the RMS for reliability issues earlier this year. Service leadership chartered an assessment of the system's capability and reliability on Sept. 25, according to Capt. Thurraya Kent, spokeswoman for the Navy's acquisition office. "Focus areas of the team's review include validating the requirements and mission concept of operations, assessing the RMS against the requirements, evaluating alternatives, assessing the program's technical risk, schedule and cost; and evaluating the program's management structure," Kent wrote in an Oct. 13 statement.
