Boeing looking for Cruise missile business? from the Washington Post:

BOEING LOBBIES FOR CRUISE MISSILE SALES: War may be hell, but in Washington, it's also a lobbying opportunity. Boeing Co., joined by two Utah weapons makers, has seized on the conflict in Kosovo to lobby Congress and the Pentagon to restart mothballed assembly lines that once manufactured cruise missiles. The military brass prefers a different solution to the looming cruise missile shortage, but Boeing, which used to make the missiles for the Navy and Air Force, has jumped on the chance to get back in the game. The aggressive approach by Boeing and its lobbying comrades is unusual during wartime, when arms makers are generally sensitive to appearances and tend to wait until a conflict ends to engage in self-promotion. Boeing and its corporate allies -- Williams International Corp., builder of the missile's engine, and Litton Industries Inc., which designs its guidance system -- have a friend in Rep. Jim Hansen of Utah, where Williams and Litton have their factories.
