ot
Our allies run the same systems made by Lockheed,Raytheon,etc! Do these companies sell to foreign
gov`t and customers?
Do you know what the word allies means?
Japan, South korea, France,England,etc!
The stuff is great! Are you capable of understanding what you have already read?
The Navy already accepted the prototype and has ordered 10 more units @ 50% of the size.
This has been sea tested.
This contract provides for the continuing development of advanced capabilities for ADEPT, the finalizing of an ADEPT Integrated Logistics Support Plan required for fleet fielding, and the Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) of ten (10) ADEPT(V)2 units which are half the size and weight of the original ADEPT(V)1 while maintaining the same functionality. The contract follows successful testing and evaluation of ADEPT on one AEGIS cruiser along with testing at the Navy's AN/SPY-1 Cruiser Modernization Test Facility in Moorestown, NJ. It is expected that the ADEPT equipment will initially be installed on AEGIS cruisers undergoing modernization with introduction into the destroyers to follow. The entire U.S. Navy AEGIS fleet consists of 22 cruisers and 62 destroyers.
Thats what they have.

OT - Conversely then, if the stuff was REALLY good(i.e. significant, meaningful, of strategic value and worth), wouldn't the Defense Dept say "Hey! this is cool stuff, and we can't have the enemy getting hold of this! You guys can ONLY sell it to us, no exporting!!" ??? LOL
