Pentagon push for new ULMS fleet drawn into SALT talks
A congressional panel denounces a $977 million plan for 30 new submarines as risky and costly. Sen. William Proxmire urges delaying start until SALT outcomes, while the Federation of American Scientists warns ULMS should not become a bargaining chip. Proxmire seeks cutting $687 million, reallocating $330 million to ULMS 1 and only $50 million for submarine R D now. He argues faster spending ignores gains from quieter, existing subs and could cost $1.0 billion per sub.
