Abstract

What the QDR said: Unfortunately, the federal government as a whole and the Pentagon in particular have not adequately addressed the changes both within the industry and in the Department's needs in the current strategic environment. Remedying the outdated for decades, largely hands-off attitude toward the U.S. defense industrial base cannot be done quickly, and change will require a long-term approach undertaken in partnership with industry and Congress.
