Your Defense Procurement Dollars at Work

The USAF has announced a "restructuring" of the Transformational Satellite Communications System which will delay the launch of the first satellite from 2013 to 2019.

It's supposed to replace MILSTAR, and it is suppose to have 100 times the bandwidth, and from what I know of the "systems of systems" that is supposed to be the new networked military, this capability is very much a part of it.

And now it's been delayed 6 years.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?
