The U.S. really needs to face facts and once and for all tackle the issues surrounding how we acquire things for the military. It's time to initiate a plan that accommodates changing Administrations and Congresses and their ever changing vision for the military's mission. The military has three basic procurement environments: immediate, short term and long term. The problem is all three of these environments have a range to them. Immediate can range from acquiring software or technology to halt an immediate cyber attack to finding a stop gap solution for IEDs. At the other end we have large items ranging from a new tactical vehicle for the Army and Marines, to the next tactical aircraft for the Air Force to the next generation aircraft carrier for the Navy.
