Multi-vendor is good in principle. DoD hopefully applying lessons learned from F-35 bullshit. It's one thing to sole source the airframe (that's been standard practice for like... forever), but the engine fiasco, the flight software fiasco, and the ODIN fiasco all reinforced the benefits of multi-vendor and open architecture where possible. Hopefully this works out well... instead of uh something like LCS where multi-vendor just means multi-lemons.
