NIH: Not Invented Here syndrome. A common failing with the US military
I've observed over the years. Examples: M60 tank replacement - US Army.
HARM missile systems - US Airforce. VTOLs - US Marines had to do a lot
of work to get Harriers. There's a fair few other systems, but I can't
recall them all.
