He backed a mobile ICBM to offset Soviet throw weight while acknowledging Carter and Brown will review the B1 procurement amid a sweeping defense budget plan. Jones said the U.S. lead in tech and miniaturization could renew potential for stand off bomber systems to extend capabilities of B52 and B1.
