Today, Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) released a report recommending the multi-lateral cancellation of the Department of Defense’s (DOD) Medium Extended Air Defense System (MEADS). MEADS was created in 1995 to replace aging missile defense systems in the U.S., Germany, and Italy but the program has been plagued with cost overruns of nearly $2 billion and is 10 years behind schedule. It is a joint venture composed of Lockheed Martin; LFKLenkflugköerpersysteme; and MBDA,which is owned by BAE Systems, the European Aeronautic Defense and Space Company, and Finmeccanica. The initial proposed cost for the design and development phases of the program was $3.4 billion, but it quickly encountered several delays and cost overruns. Although the U.S. has already spent $1.9 billion on the initial design and development phase, the program still requires an additional $2.8 billion just to complete this stage of the project.
