Calling it now, it's gonna end up costing more than planned, it will fail to meet the timeframe, the cooperation with France will produce some disagreements over design and doctrine of the new tank and a few years after it's shipped, there
will be some sort of scandal about the product being of sub-par quality, unsafe to use or incompatible with other equipment. The recent series of equipment mishaps have eroded my faith in the MoD's procurement and information policies. rolleyes.gif

Thats the fault of all these greedy military companies, not really the government, i know it sounds like cliche but the principle of obsolonce is the same as previous.

So that's why most non-government projects are on time.

It's more public sector fucking up private sector as usual.
