Army leaders question the findings in a report recently released by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) concerning the service's Future Combat Systems. In the March 12, 2009 report, the GAO says FCS technology has not yet reached appropriate levels of maturity, that not enough product testing has been demonstrated and that the program is over budget. Army generals involved in the program dispute the findings and say the technology levels in FCS are not lagging, as the GAO report suggests. For more information on FCS, visit their website. A summary of the GAO report and the full text are available on the GAO website.
