The FCS was an enormous waste of money because the vehicles were too lightly armored.
Unlike the FCS, the F-22 however is worth every penny. It would have made more sense to cancel the FCS and used the money to build more F-22s.
Maybe so, I’m not familiar with the vehicle programs. But FCS included a lot of technology such as more UAVs and MAVs (Micro Air Vehicles) that would provide intel and keep troops safer. Fortunately I think some of these aspects are being funded separately.
I guess my point really was just to compare the potential value of a major investment in national defense vs. the piddling-away of resources on the alleged stimulus which won’t stimulate anything other than bigger government.
