GAO Report in PDF Format B-2 Bomber: Assessment of DOD's Response to Mandated Certifications and Reports (Letter Report, 11/03/93, GAO/NSIAD-94-75). The Air Force is restricted from using about $2.3 billion in recent appropriations to procure B-2 aircraft until (1) it gives Congress certifications and reports on the B-2 bomber program and (2) a law is passed authorizing release of the funds. In October 1993, the Secretary of Defense certified that 28 legislative requirements associated with B-2 performance, fiscal controls and quality practices, and submission of a cost report had been met. The Pentagon gave GAO evidence that the requirements involving B-2 performance and fiscal controls and quality practices had been met. The requirement concerning submission of a cost report, however, has not been met. --------------------------- Indexing Terms ----------------------------- REPORTNUM: NSIAD-94-75 TITLE: B-2 Bomber: Assessment of DOD's Response to Mandated Certifications and Reports DATE: 11/03/93 SUBJECT: Reporting requirements Air Force procurement Military aircraft Bomber aircraft Maintenance costs Repair costs Life cycle costs Military cost control Quality control Quality assurance IDENTIFIER: B-2 Aircraft DOD Selected Acquisition Reporting System ************************************************************************ See the GAO FAQ - Section 2.0 for printed copy ordering information.
