Did the Collins submarine computerization project morph into a Frankenstein which prevented people from?

Question

completing the project ?

(I was fascinated by the publication of the book "Collins Class Submarine Story: Steel, Spies and Spin" and searched and found this

on the net:

<<In August 1991, because of the combat system schedule slippage, the contract was amended to provide a two-stage delivery. This was to allow submarine platform trials to proceed in advance of a fully compliant combat system being available.

In September 1993, ASC notified sub-contractor Rockwell of a default in contract (non-delivery of the combat system), but were not allowed by Defence to proceed and instead the delivery method was further changed from two-stage to multiple increments, with increasing functionality and complexity to be introduced with each delivery.>>

Perhaps the programming support environment available in the DT&E lab wasn't up to the job. But if so, what might have caused that ?

It was thrown in today by way of pretext,

Answer 1

Yes, it is like a dead body being coaxed back to life, LOL!!!

Answer 2

Perhaps if you posted this either in history, government or Austrailia, you might find someone who actually cares about the mess of the Austrailian government/military and , thereby, feed you obsession with the same.

However, the repetitiveness of these questions are more than a bit boring.

Be well.
