Senate committee approves B1 research boost but delays procurement
The Senate committee backed $726.2 million for continued Bi bomber R&D to build a fourth prototype while denying $222 million for procurement to defer a production decision. It rejected a plan to add 12 F111s as an alternative to the B1, and denied $257 million for a fifth nuclear powered anti aircraft frigate. It trimmed frigate construction from 10 to 7 ships and urged wider contractor participation beyond Bath Iron Works. It also approved $142.4 million for five R&D programs to improve accuracy and yield of ICBMs and submarine missiles.
