超级军网美国召开加油机军购听证会 向本土公司解释

美国空军放弃波音公司，而选择向欧洲购买新型加油机一事如今正在发酵。美国空军官员日前召开听证会对为何放弃波音而选择诺·格与空客参与KC-X加油机项目做出解释。
价值350亿美元的加油机订单被欧洲军火公司抢走，美国国内连日来对国防部放弃国内公司而“肥水大流外人田”的做法表示强烈不满，美军空中加油机合同面临越来越大的压力。
英国《飞行国际》报道，波音公司日前要求空军立即就其为何输掉加油机合同提供情况通报，空军表示将在3月12日向竞标方提供。波音称这一“不正常”的两周时间延迟与已有的采办惯例不符，通常情况通报在决定宣布日后数天就进行。
与美国空军关系密切的美国资深国防分析家表示，诺·格几乎在美国KC-X重要评价标准上都打败波音，包括任务能力和成本。他说：“诺·格-EADS方案几乎在每个方面都更胜一筹。”
美国空军准备提早向波音告知为何波音输掉了KC-X加油机合同。空军原定3月12日向波音做出回答，波音在2月29日加油机合同归属结果出来后要求了解项目有关信息。
波音在获取情况通报后有10天时间决定是否对合同授予提出抗议，此前波音尚未对五角大楼的合同授予提出过任何质疑。日前在国会听证会上，美国空军高层官员为其最终决定和决策过程进行了辩护。议员们看起来愿意等到波音获得情况通报后再决定如何行动。
波音防务部总裁表示，波音对空军选择了更大的基于空客A330的加油机非常吃惊，因为原始的方案征询书显示美国空军想要的是一种中等大小的加油机，不然波音也可以提供基于777的加油机。波音认为其KC-767投标方案具有更低的成本和风险。

Decision Time Nears for Boeing to Protest Air Force Tanker Award
ST. LOUIS, March 10, 2008 -- As the deadline nears for a decision on whether to protest a U.S. Air Force contract award for the next refueling tanker aircraft, officials at Boeing [NYSE: BA] spent the weekend evaluating with growing concern the information provided by the Air Force during a Friday debriefing.
"As we have gone through this process it has become clearer that this competition was much closer than has been reported, and that raises the stakes if the process was flawed and unfair in any way," said Mark McGraw, Boeing vice president and program manager for tanker programs. "We have serious concerns over inconsistency in requirements, cost factors and treatment of our commercial data."
As Boeing enters the final phase of its evaluation, the company is taking exception to reports that the Air Force had not received adequate commercial pricing data from the company. "It was clear from the Request for Proposals that the Air Force was seeking a commercial derivative tanker. However, by treating the Boeing offering as a military aircraft, the process by which the commercial cost/price data provided by Boeing Commercial Airplanes was evaluated has raised significant concerns," McGraw said. "We provided unprecedented insight into Boeing commercial cost/price data that had been developed over 50 years of building commercial aircraft. We believe this data was treated differently than our competitor's information.
"It is also important to note that the task of assembling and presenting this commercial data to the Air Force demonstrates the value of cooperation on this program within one company," McGraw added. "This is in sharp contrast to the higher risk involved in two companies from different countries and business cultures who have never worked together on a program of this size before."
Boeing is also responding to assertions that the company somehow misread Air Force requirements for the new tanker. "Our proposal was based on the stated criteria in the Air Force's Request for Proposal, with a specific focus on providing operational tanker capability at low risk and the lowest total life cycle cost," McGraw said. "We stand by our offering and believe that it did, and continues to, best meet the requirements.
"We take a protest very seriously," McGraw said. "For decades, Boeing has been recognized as a defense company that never takes lightly protests of our customers' decisions. We are following a very rigorous and deliberative process to ensure that we are comfortable that the evaluation was fair, and that ultimately it resulted in the tanker that is best suited to meet the needs of the warfighter."

Boeing to File Protest of U.S. Air Force Tanker Contract Award
CHICAGO, March 10, 2008 -- The Boeing Company [NYSE: BA] will file a formal protest on Tuesday asking the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to review the decision by the U.S. Air Force to award a contract to a team of Northrop Grumman and European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company (EADS) to replace aerial refueling tankers.
"Our team has taken a very close look at the tanker decision and found serious flaws in the process that we believe warrant appeal," said Jim McNerney, Boeing chairman, president and chief executive officer. "This is an extraordinary step rarely taken by our company, and one we take very seriously."
Following a debriefing on the decision by the Air Force on March 7, Boeing officials spent three days reviewing the Air Force case for its tanker award. A rigorous analysis of the Air Force evaluation that resulted in the Northrop/EADS contract led Boeing to the conclusion that a protest was necessary.
"Based upon what we have seen, we continue to believe we submitted the most capable, lowest risk, lowest Most Probable Life Cycle Cost airplane as measured against the Air Force's Request for Proposal," McNerney said. "We look forward to the GAO's review of the decision."
Boeing said it would provide additional details of its case in conjunction with the protest filing on Tuesday.
