Mr. Kendall, the June 1, 2011, Army contract was a no-bid contract. What justification existed for not awarding this contract through an open and competitive selection process?

I share Senator McCain's frustrations--I am sure you have some--for the cost overruns.

Since we put all of our eggs in the F-35 basket, as the saying goes, we better take care of the basket.

The United States has made clear that the Assad regime has lost its legitimacy and that this crisis has no effective solution without Assad's departure.

I welcome these statements, and can think of no greater example of the importance of these facts than the United States' relationship with Taiwan.

Will you make a commitment to determine whether such a disconnect exists and, if it does, to overhaul the process?

Do you share the belief that we cannot win the interdiction fight to stop illegal drugs from entering the United States along the Southwest Border, and thus we should reallocate NGCD funding elsewhere?

I support the national interdiction goal as set forth in the National Drug Control Strategy; establishing a desired removal rate of 40 percent of the documented flow of cocaine destined for the United States by fiscal year 2015.

Do you agree that the Obama administration's policy of trying to reset bilateral relations with Russia was a major factor in the decision to award this June 1, 2011, no-bid contract to Rosoboronexport?

Dr. Miller, are you aware that Rosoboronexport is not the actual manufacturer of Mi-17 helicopters, but only a broker?

The United States has an obligation to use all of its leverage to pressure Russia and Russian entities to end their support of the Assad regime.

Continuing to do business with Rosoboronexport undermines U.S. policy regarding Syria.
