The struggle by President Donald J. Trump and his administration to bring efficiency and accountability to government spending is about to storm a previously unbreachable bastion: the Pentagon.
Today (10) President Donald Trump signed an executive order to review the Pentagon’s weapons acquisition process.
The order includes assessments of top weapons programs behind schedule and beset by cost overruns.
Bloomberg reported:
“All major defense-acquisitions programs will be reviewed” to determine if they are complying with the administration’s new policy goals that emphasize “speed, flexibility and execution,” according to a summary accompanying the order. “Any program more than 15% behind schedule or 15% over cost will be scrutinized for cancellation.”
We need to kill off alot of project’s like M1E3 MBT X program that is highly poorly idea of waste taxpayer money and time.
