![The American defense community stands at a crossroads.

They're betting that they can round up support in Congress to bring it back to life — despite the fact that the Pentagon has previously issued a stop-work order on the project, which it says is "a waste of taxpayer money."](http://www.baltimoresun.com/media/thumbnails/story/2011-06/62385111-15091821.jpg "The American defense community stands at a crossroads.
