Are you under the impression that EMALS has had more trouble than other newly developed systems? Is it behind schedule?Kyler wrote:http://www.informationdissemination.net ... gle+Reader

I was under the impression that is was behind schedule as well, but it seems maybe they go things back on track.

Presumably there is a set time scale somewhere - saying as it does in the article that ''failure is not an option'' implies that the time scale is subordinate to getting it right - so it could take theoretically for ever.

That seems unlikely since they are building the ship it will be installed in.RF wrote:Presumably there is a set time scale somewhere - saying as it does in the article that ''failure is not an option'' implies that the time scale is subordinate to getting it right - so it could take theoretically for ever.
Re: Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System Milestone
As with the Graf Zeppelin aircraft carrier, will it get to be completed?
