The US General Accounting Office has turned down Northrop Grumman's protest at the US Air Force's selection of Raytheon to develop and produce the next-generation airport-surveillance radar for the US Federal Aviation Administration and the US military. The losing bidder claims that there were "errors and inconsistencies" in the source-selection process. The DASR, also known as ASR-11, includes production of up to 213 digital radars through to 2007, to replace surveillance radars installed at civilian and military airfields.
