Summary:

In the 1980s, the Navy began a program to replace its aging fleet of A-6 medium attack aircraft with a new aircraft--the A-12--that would incorporate stealth technology and could be launched from an aircraft carrier. In January 1991, the Navy canceled the A-12 contract due to problems the contractors had in executing the contract. This report details the status of A-12 appropriations and the expenditures that are planned because of the termination. It also discusses the lawsuit filed by the A-12's contractors against the government.
