Description of the Book:

This paper analyzes the effects that technological change might have upon the price of weapon systems. It also examines and evaluates the existing cost estimating methodologies to determine whether they are appropriate in the presence of dynamic structural changes. A methodology for relating production processes to costs and cost estimating methodologies is developed and then applied to fighter aircraft. Finally, recommendations for developing cost estimating techniques that accommodate technological change are presented
