The US government's Fiscal Year 2014 (FY14) National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) dramatically scales back the US Navy's (USN's) plans to field the Unmanned Carrier-Launched Surveillance and Strike System (UCLASS) aircraft, among other things.
According to the legislation, the navy would not be able to acquire more than six air vehicles prior to a 'Milestone B' decision to enter the engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) phase. The USN previously has said that it plans to acquire up to 24 air vehicles prior to EMD.
