Recently I have heard of two large US Navy development programs 
that have started full scale development in the last six months 
that are using the C language for implementation. Since one of 
these systems is a weapon system that has a 680x0 as the processor, 
I'm wondering what the Navy's policy for software acquisition 
says. If anyone has either a reference to authoritive policy 
statements (preferably document numbers) or is in a position of 
authority, I would like to hear from you either by email or on 
the net.
