F-14 cuts threaten thousands of aerospace jobs
Defense Secretary Harold Brown orders a sharp cutback in F-14 production for the Navy, reducing yearly output from 36 to 24 and potentially costing up to 30,000 New York jobs. The plan would slow production to three per month next year, then to two by 1980, with about 8,400 employed by then. The move shapes budget fights as Carter weighs broader defense costs and engine plant effects in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
