They asked you to pre-commit as part of the RFP, and now they're stating, “That's nice, but now we're going to negotiate further on these items,” which were laid out in the RFP. Actually, that sounds very similar to the fixed-wing search and rescue RFP, where they had a 30,000-page RFP but they changed the rules afterwards.
What would they be negotiating with on the F-35, when there are no ITBs allowed as part of the F-35 program, in terms of economic benefits? Do you know?
