F-14 cuts threaten aerospace jobs and budget shifts
Defense Secretary Harold Brown orders a sharp F-14 production cut in the Navy budget, reducing from 36 to 24 next year. The move could cost up to 30,000 jobs in New York State, mainly Long Island, with broader effects on Connecticut and others as production declines to three per month then two by 1980. The plan maintains F-18 funding, despite political pressure from Congress.
