It’s not a cost overrun, the scope of the project got expanded to include carrier operations.
Look up FUTA docking to see the cost breakdown
The carrier operations are shared jointly between several NATO countries, and would mostly be covered under the Yearly International Freedom Fund (YIFF).
That makes sense, but will that also cover the Vertically Oriented Reconnaissance Equipment (VORE) package as well?
Indeed, it’s necessary in order to sync its Direct Intervention Combustible Kinetics via the Tactical Information Transmission System.
If you ask me, it’s this combo of DICK and TITS that really makes FUTA special.
Im gonna post this on Nextdoor rq lmfao
I’m glad they were on budged for project BLUEWAFFLE.
Unlike project LEMONPARTY
GOATSE had such cost overruns
Blew the budget wide open.
Print these out and post them all over the DC metro
Really? I was gonna look that up anyways, guess I can make time for some UAV research
Look at that thing. It has so much stuff on it. VTOL, normal flight, antennas, and who knows what else to be strapped on it. Does everything, but none of it well. Well, except make some defense contractor a shitton of money.
That’s the aerosonde and it’s actually a sick piece of tech. They’re competing for the tactical UAS contract right now, and VTOL is a requirement, so bolt-on packages for existing platforms are kind of an easy out. Also it’s a recon platform so fly and do camera are really the only things it has to do well.
