Army's Future Combat System plagued by 63.8 million lines of software code !
In a report in Thursday's (Jan. 24) edition, the Washington Post quoted officials with the congressional Government Accountability Office (GAO) as saying the Army underestimated the size of the software effort. The amount of software code for the Future Combat System has reportedly doubled since development began in 2003.
According to GAO, the program has grown from 33.7 million lines of code to 63.8 million. The next largest DoD software development project is the Joint Strike Fighter, at about 23 million lines of code.
