Aeros sues the Navy

Very unfortunate that Aero's is forced to take these measures in order to remain out of bankruptcy:

I think it would be best if the US Government spent some serious money to pump out a fleet of these airships as the potential increase in GDP would make the effort well worth it in the long run.

I don't really know who is at fault here, and really it shouldn't matter as these airships are too great to pass up and it's unfortunate that the Navy doesn't see itself in a position to fund a technology which historically has been in it's repertoire.

As much as I self I identify with libertarian philosophy, at the end of the day the government needs to be the institution to spend money on innovation when no one else is and this is a case where corporate welfare really dose have a place in politics.

If the US government was spending the money to buy the two XL-250 Aeroscrafts that they indicated they would buy if the Dragon Dream was successful, and it was, then Aeros would have all the money they need to start mass producing Aeroscrafts, as it stands the government is being stingy in an area it really shouldn't be given the huge benefits to globule GDP and cost reductions in logistics for the military that this technology can bring.

All the money spent on these airships will save a lot more money in the long run, yet it seems that the government is deadlocked when it comes to seeing this as the situation. And it's unlikely that the privet sector is going to pick up the pieces any time soon.

Now is the time for self sacrifice on the government's part to push these airships out and kick start this revolution into overdrive. It would be an injustice to humanity if Aeros went bankrupt right at this critical point when it's just about to change the world forever, hopefully the big wigs in the government will see that.
