Future in doubt as stormy waters threaten to scatter JTRS convoy
Article Abstract:
The fate of the US Department of Defense's Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) programme is uncertain due to the pending of the publication of the new development 'road map' that will be presented to the Defense Acquisition Board (DAB). The US government's General Accounting Office (GAO) has suggested that the review would be held at the end of Fiscal Year 2005 and JTRS might be subjected to change at governmental management level.
