Air Force Projects $1.2 Billion Funding Shortfall After Fuel Prices Rise
Air Force officials are projecting a $1.2 billion funding shortfall this fiscal year if the price of a barrel of oil remains at $166, and the most likely solution to closing the budget gap would be a reprogramming request sent to Congress, according to a service official.
Interesting, as an F-35 burns more fuel than that which it replaces.
