Air Force Request Moves 98 JSFs Out of FYDP, Buys Fewer Reapers
The Air Force's fiscal year 2013 budget request recommends moving the procurement of 98 Joint Strike Fighter aircraft out of the current five-year defense plan, buying half as many MQ-9 Reapers as in FY-12, cutting two acquisition programs designed to build partnership capacity and continuing early research on a next-generation bomber, two senior service budget officials said this morning.
So much for "commitment". But they were not getting anything near "plan" anyway.
