Short Take: Unisys and Lockheed-Martin named in whistle-blower suit

A whistle-blower lawsuit has been brought against Unisys and Lockheed-Martin, alleging fraud against the U.S. government totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. According to the complaint, filed by a former employee at an Eagan, Minnesota, facility, Unisys instructed software engineers to lie to the U.S. Navy, persuading it to pay millions for obsolete computer systems, systems that the Navy continues to purchase to this day.
