"While most areas of procurement will see significant reductions, other sectors are anticipated to retain funding, while some will increase," said Frost & Sullivan Industry Analyst Brad Curran. "Technologies like tactical networks, electronic warfare, training and simulation, and logistics maintain high levels of spending and increasingly apply mature commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies to DoD problems."
