As the Air Force prepares to award a winner of the now 10+ year old KC-X tanker program, for the third time, let us take a quick look at why it takes 3 times and billions of dollars to award such a contract. (Based on COTS too, not even really hard stealthy or technical stuff) BTW, whoever loses (Boeing or EADS) has already said they will protest since during the proposal phase the Air Force SENT THE PROPOSALS TO THE OTHER TEAMS. (Boeing prices to EADS and vice versa). You can't make this stuff up folks.
