The B-1 bomber...the cruise missile...the Trident submarine...the Trident missile...the M-1 tank...the MX missile... Why were these weapons built? Why are they so expensive? Why don't they work as promised? Americans are generally aware that a huge problem exists in the ways and means of defense procurement. What few understand, however, is the actual process of buying a weapon. Unguided Missiles is the fullest and best description of this process yet published, from milestone zero, the determination of need, to actual production of the piece of hardware.
