FARA Farce: What The Army Didn t Learn From The F-35 - Breaking Defense Breaking Defense - Defense industry news, analysis and commentary

As the Army races forward to take flight in its Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft (FARA), Breaking Defense contributor and acquisition expert Bill Greenwalt sees too many troubling parallels with the Air Force’s infamous production of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. With taxpayer dollars and Army tactical capabilities in the balance, he argues in the op-ed below that Congress should act to prevent a costly repeat of history. Almost a decade ago, Frank Kendall, the acquisitions official who is now Air Force Secretary, observed that the Air Force had committed “acquisition malpractice” by moving the F-35 to production years before it was ever flight tested. That decision sentenced the program to a plague of cost, schedule, and performance problems.

O No Canada: Is A Three-Eyed AUKUS An Augury For Change?

When Australia, the US and UK announced a new pacific-focused defense agreement last month, it was hard not to notice that the deal excluded the other two members of the Five Eyes intelligence agreement. Local media in Canada certainly seized on it to raise questions about Ottawa’s standing in the world. Bill Greenwalt, a member of the Breaking Defense editorial board, writes below that Canada should take this as a wake-up call. With all of the ink spilt on French pique over the future sale of nuclear submarines to the Australians, there was one other French-speaking nation left out our neighbor up north. AUKUS, the new alliance between the US, Australia, and the United Kingdom was a shock to France who merely lost a $66 billion submarine contract, but to a supposedly close Five Eyes intelligence cooperation partner, it appears Canada has lost something more its standing among its allies. In response to not being consulted about the new alliance, the Canadian bureaucracy ha
