Potential Reductions to Aircraft Procurement Programs Gao ID: NSIAD-91-285BR September 25, 1991

This review of the Air Force's fiscal year 1992 aircraft procurement budget request and its prior years' appropriations searched for potential reductions and rescissions for the common aircraft support equipment and for aircraft programs and modifications. These programs and modifications are for the C-17, C-130H, B-1B, B-52, F-16, KC-135, MH-60G, and F-15 aircraft. The review did not identify potential reductions or rescissions for the F-15 and the MH-60G. Among the other programs, GAO identified $352 million in potential reductions to the fiscal year 1992 budget request and $12.9 million in potential rescissions of appropriated funds from fiscal years 1991 and 1989. No potential rescissions were found in the fiscal year 1990 funds.

GAO: (1) identified $352 million in potential reductions to the FY 1992 budget request and $10.2 million and $2.7 million in potential rescissions of appropriated funds from FY 1991 and FY 1989, respectively; and (2) found no potential rescissions to FY 1990 funds.
