The Requirements Process for the Army Multi-Mission Radar and the Marine Corps Multi-Role Radar System

Abstract

This report discusses the processes the Army and the Marine Corps used to generate requirements for the Multi-Mission Radar and the Multi-Role Radar System. We performed this audit in response to allegations made to the DoD Hotline. The allegations concerned the processes the Army and the Marine Corps used to generate requirements for the Multi-Mission Radar and the Multi-Role Radar System which are both multiple-mission radar systems. This report addresses the four allegations made concerning: (1) defining threat requirements and the urgent need for the radars: (2) performing an adequate analysis of alternatives for the radars, to include an assessment of current radar systems, upgrades to current radar systems, and planned radar systems of the other Services: (3) considering combat effectiveness and suitability factors when defining radar requirements: and (4) threatening improper personnel actions against staff wanting to discuss alternative means of meeting radar requirements.
