Default FIA: not to worry

WASHINGTON, Oct 28 (Reuters) - The Pentagon mapping and imagery
agency on Tuesday said it was "very comfortable" about next-
generation spy satellites being built by Boeing Co. after $4
billion in cash infusions and a major overhaul.

"Right now, the cost schedule and performance parameters are in
balance. We may not fund everything that people had in their
mind's eye way back when, but it will be a very healthy, robust
program," retired Air Force Gen. James Clapper, director of the
National Imagery and Mapping Agency, told reporters at a briefing.


I'm going to try to get a transcript of all of this, but apparently
the briefing was at "a Defense Writers Group breakfast."
