* The Navy's super-secret "strategic plan" can be
described as the service's itemized wish-list that rarely anyone
from the private sector gets to see. That may change in the future,
suggested Vice Adm. Terrance T. Etnyre, who recently retired as
commander of naval surface forces. The plan, which
specifies what the
Navy wants to buy to be able to execute its maritime strategy and
concept of operations, is a classified document. In response to frequent
complaints from industry, the Navy is considering releasing an
unclassified version, Etnyre told an Armed Forces Communications and
Electronics Association conference.
