This article is highly promotional of its subject and U.S.-centric. For example,

This new "system of systems" will significantly contribute to the Coast Guard's maritime domain awareness, as well as the improved ability to intercept, engage, and deter those activities that pose a direct challenge to U.S. sovereignty and security. Deepwater will provide the means to extend our layered maritime defenses from our ports and coastal areas hundreds of miles to sea.

"Our ports and coastal areas"? Come now. In addition, the sentence "The Coast Guard selected the contractor who offered the best value from among the premiere system integration experts in the world" uses language fit for making a sales pitch (best value, premiere experts in the world), not an encyclopedia. It seems to me that this article needs to be cleaned up to describe the program in a much more objective manner. --Occamslawnmower 06:26, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
