The money must be there for IVAS, they are not slowing down. A review at Ft. Pickett with Dr. Jette in attendance, Ellen Lord, Distinguished Visitors Day

The fielding timeline of this new weapon system has been a hot topic at Soldier Touchpoints. The IVAS team understands that their goals require constantly pushing the boundaries by modifying old processes to develop new and relevant technology. Through these efforts, the IVAS program has intentionally leveraged nontraditional funding and condensed the traditional DoD acquisition cycle to field the equipment faster than ever before. The expedited timeline is a feat unique to IVAS and one other major equipment development, the Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binocular (ENVG-B). The acquisition cycle was highlighted by Army Vice Chief of Staff General Joseph Martin on DV Day.
