DMO later than ever

DMO doing what it does best: spending money; driving projects into the ground.

Different day; same shit.

Mr King also revealed concerns about cost overruns and delays in the $8 billion $10 billion project to construct three advanced air warfare destroyers for the navy.

That project exceeded its budget for the year by $106.4 million, pushing it to $725 million. That was attributed to industry participants exceeding the budget for labour, materials and sub-contracts.

DMO said there was sufficient budget to complete the project against the agreed scope.

It will commission an independent review to identify the problems and how they can be fixed.

Also mentioned in the article; they can just declare everything OK with the Wedgetail.

What 10 percent of the missing capability did they fix?

But back to the Air Warfare Destroyer project.

Remember when it was a $5B project?

Remember when it was a $6B project?

Or was it $7B?

Today, it looks to run about $10B.

For 3 ships.
