NGC informs Pentagon it won't bid in KC-X under current terms
Northrop Grumman President Wes Bush told Ashton Carter, the Pentagon's chief weapons buyer, Dec. 1 that the company would not submit a bid in the KC-X competition under current terms.

"The department's responses to date to our submitted questions suggest that the department is not planning to substantially address our concerns in the final release of the RFP (request for proposals)," Bush said.

"As a result, I must regrettably inform you that, absent a responsive set of changes in the final RFP, Northrop Grumman has determined that it cannot submit a bid to the department for the KC-X program," he said in the letter, which was released by the company.
