Summary

This project (1) reviewed the 2003 'Competition and Innovation in the U.S. Fixed-Wing Military Aircraft Industry" RAND study and the resulting evaluations of the risks and costs of the U.S. having little or no competition among companies involved with designing, developing, and producing fixed-wing military aircraft and related systems; (2) examined changes in industrial-base structure and capabilities that have taken hold since that analysis was performed; and (3) assessed how these and future changes will affect the industrial base
