Abstract

The article examines negotiations between the U.S. Department of Defense and the aerospace industry firm Lockheed Martin over costs in the design and construction of the Joint Strke Fighter (JSF), a jet fighter under development by the firm. An increase in the estimates of costs of the program by the department could lead to a reduction in the number of the airplanes ordered when the Congress appropriates funds for the fighter when it enters production.
