Summary:

GAO reviewed fiscal year 1993 budget requests by the Army, Navy, and Air Force as well as prior years' appropriations for command, control, and communications satellite programs. Schedule slippages and technical risks, together with cost, requirements, and program changes, have affected the program funding requirements for both fiscal years 1993 and 1992. GAO identified $120 million in potential reductions and rescissions. GAO focused on program cost, schedule, and performance issues and examined expenditure documents to see whether requests were adequately justified and prior years' unobligated funds should be retained. GAO also evaluated budgetary implications of program changes arising from threat changes identified by the Defense Department.
