Important Disclaimers
Trends are based on a March 2001 technology
assessment.

• All projections are forward looking statements
  that may change based on program priorities and
  projected technology advances.
• The figures on the following slides indicate when
  the Q-70 program intends to make newer products
  eligible for productization for the Q-70 user
  community.
• The figures do not indicate when the Q-70 program
  will discontinue support for existing products.
  Products are normally supported for the life of
  the program.

5
