Default Esculating Procurement Cost

OK, I am reading Defense Industry Daily, just because I try to maintain enough knowledge to be a novice policy wonk . . . and I keep reading on programs seeing signficant cost increases, and decreased capability goal achievement. What is going on with the defense industry? There are several programs that have been down scaled or threatened with the chopping block due these issues.

Can some of the more experienced and learned individuals on this board explain this to me. Thanks.
