 In April 2013, DARPA awarded a $1 million prize to a team in the Fast Adaptable Next-Generation Ground Vehicle (FANG) contest.The team beat out 1,000 other competitors to submit their design for a drivetrain for the Amphibious Combat Vehicle.The FANG initiative was to demonstrate a way to procure working systems better than the current defense acquisition process, which frequently leads to delays and cost overruns.
