All agreed. As long as its as good or better than the system its replacing and is as upgradable. (30 years worth at least).
Putting 'new' code into pretty grey boxes may suit many but if it don't work in the first place don't bother.
I would appreciate information on any COTS system, available now, that has at least the current capacity to shift 2 million movements with 4 centres ( 2 en-route, 1 sub-centre and one TMA) and has the capacity to handle 4 - 5 million? I have said this before. Let the US spend the money deveopling a new system then buy it. ONCE ITS PROVEN!
