Navy Programs Cut
Two of the Navy's highest-profile programs would be cut: the Littoral Combat Ship and the VH-71 presidential helicopter.
Lockheed's VH-71 program aims to replace the 19 aircraft, some of them 40 years old, known as Marine Helicopter Squadron One. These craft ferry the president, vice president and heads of state. The Pentagon refused the Navy's request to buy four helicopters, shifting the $555 million for this purchase to continued development of a program that started at $6.1 billion and has seen major cost overruns. With the $555 million, the request for continued development totals $1 billion.
