COMMENTS: PROCUREMENT WARS
Yesterday Lisa Myers questioned the USArmy's refusal to deploy an Israeli-manufactured rocket-grenade interceptor called TROPHY. Today's NBC News Investigates follow-up explained that military brass preferred to wait for a Future Combat System, which is still under development by Raytheon, a US-based manufacturer, even though the army's own weapons testers recommended TROPHY.
