Abstract: | The recent attention given to Strategic Alliances and Technological Partnering, in a variety of commercial and governmental contexts, has grown much faster than our understanding of how such arrangements work. For some time, however, military agencies in the NATO countries have been involved in a number of high-technology cooperative projects, resulting in the co-development of new weapon systems. Fourteen such case studies (six that were relatively successful and eight that were less successful) are examined and attempts to draw lessons from the experiences of these projects are made. The lessons stress the insulation of the projects from international politics, the need to provide strong project leadership and a forum for partners to discuss issues. |
