BY VHE COMPTROLLER GENERAL

Report To The Chairman, Subcommittee

On Defense, Committee On Appropriations,

House Of Representatives

OP THE UNITED STATES




Adjustments Recommended In Fiscal

Year 1982 Ammunition Procurement

And Modernization Programs


At the request of the Subcommittee on De-
fense of the House Committee on Appropria-
tions, GAO has reviewed the military services'
annual requests for funds to purchase ammu-
nition and to modernize ammunition produc-
tion facilities. GAO's review was limited pri-
marily to those items involving large dollar
amounts or items being bought for the first
time.

GAO recommends that the Committee (1) re-
duce the services' $3.7 billion request for items
by $157.9 million, (2) reduce the Army's
$306.4 million request for the ammunition
production base by $15.3 million, and (3)
closely monitor the ammunition programs for
three items until problems are resolved.
