More Book Details

Description of the Book:

GAO examined the status of one Navy and two Air Force Programs to acquire 1,184 trainer aircraft costing an estimated $10.8 billion over the next decade. GAO found that: The Department of Defense needs to firm up its plans to acquire T-45 aircraft for training Navy pilots. In doing so, the Navy should be directed to consider extending use of its present aircraft. The Air Force’s T-46A has experienced some cost growth. Its accelerated engine development and concurrent testing and production are areas of potential concern. The Air Force planned to begin development of the Tanker-Transport-Bomber Training System in fiscal year 1983, but the Congress did not authorize appropriations for the program in that year. The Air Force has applied for fiscal year 1984 approval
