...Report language: "The Committee is aware that the Navy has identified a number of Seahawk airframe upgrades that are currently not funded in the out-years but are critical investments as performance requirements and weight grow on the aircraft. The MH-60S and MH-60R have been in the Fleet since 2001 and 2006 respectively and are expected to remain in service as a critical Battle Group capability until at least 2030.

7RAR TG Flood Rescue Tuesday, May 14, 2013 [Published Noodls - May 14 2013]

"... let me give you a little bit on cash, and you've seen this in 2012 and you're going to see it again in 2013. Our cash generation in the underlying business continues to be superb. We have considerable CapEx in 2012, and again in 2013. In 2013 we have planned at about $618 million, that's primarily at Gulfstream and I can tell you we're going to work that number very, very hard. We also have some headwinds in cash with respect to pension, and as I mentioned, higher CapEx. But let me talk to you a minute about a subject that's near and dear to my heart, and that's capital deployment. I think it should be clear from what I've told you is that I'm going to remain, and as is our management team, focused on operations in 2013. I can tell you there is almost no acquisition candidates in the current pipeline. I also believe that the acquisition process at GD is somewhat broken, and I will not venture back into that market until we have re-established the discipline in this process. I can give you a little bit more color on this. If you consider the acquisitions that were made in Combat, Force Protection in particular, and the repair businesses in Marine, they were excellent. The recent IS&T acquisitions haven't been so far. Regarding dividend and share repurchases, I'm just not going to get ahead of my board ..."
