Depends on the term of the contract. Common sense would dictate that there should have been some degree of penalty clause for late delivery where the supplier is culpable but you never know!
The supplier could have argued that HO were to blame or partially to blame for any delays in delivery by say: altering project plans, designs, requirements or any multitude of other reasons.
Raytheon weren't the only contractor involved in this project. I know a couple of people who went off to work on this project via other entities and their contracts were rather lucrative to say the least.
