Boom and descope: the Army’s battlefield network nearly TRIPLED its estimate ($4.0B for 1,893 nodes → $11.2B for 3,730 by 2016, +178.7% in FY2017$) — then the 2017 procurement halt cut it back to +15% over baseline, for 270 fewer nodes than the original plan. The row shows the end state; the note is the ride.
