I wonder what happened with FCS funding? I'd rather see that money spent on what we have now than to see the troops shortchanged.
It has taken a number of hits also. Take a second look at the follow line from the report.
'A key experimental Army unit that was slated to receive the A3 Bradleys will not receive them, according to Pentagon documents.'
That 'key experimental' unit is the FCS Unit of Action Brigade that will be standing up here at Ft. Bliss.
I think the FCS program is very slowly changing from a system of new vehicles with all kinds of bells and whisles (state of the art comm gear and command and control systems) to just the bells and whisles installed into what we already have now.
Spot Report and my 2 cents.
