Description

This Routledge book examines the decision-making process behind U.S. weapons procurement, with particular focus on the history of the MX program. The authors demonstrate that strategic and general political factors play a far more decisive role in procurement decisions than bureaucratic concerns, contrary to findings in previous studies. The work highlights the significant contributions of congressional and public debate in shaping U.S. weapons procurement policy, revealing how these broader influences affected the MX program's development. By analysing the pattern of decision-making surrounding the MX, the authors identify a fundamental change in how the United States approaches major defence acquisition choices, offering insights into the interplay between political leadership, legislative oversight, and public discourse in determining the nation's weapons systems strategy.
