Pentagon Splits Development Of Army's Airship Intelligence Program

摘要

Pentagon and Army officials have decided to split the acquisition strategy for the service's Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle by issuing separate solicitations for the airship and the payload integration portions of the program, according to sources involved in the effort.rnThe decision to split the LEMV's development and competitively bid out the airship portion of the effort effectively nixes the program's use of a new industry consortium for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, much to the group's chagrin.
