Au contraire, we are very interested in competition. Invoking the NSE doesn't for a moment mean that the government contracting regulations, the default for which is competition, don't apply. In fact, I can give you several recent examples in which we have had an NSE invoked, and there has been competition.
Fixed-wing search and rescue, as you'll see in the news this morning, was competed. One of the unsuccessful bidders has brought some legal action.
We competed the Arctic offshore patrol ships and joint support ships contract. A national security exception was invoked. We had four bidders. We have a successful bidder with whom we've concluded negotiations, and we're waiting to award the contract.
There have been a number of recent examples in which an NSE was in play and we competed successfully.
