U.S. NAVY (continued)
Avondale (support ships and air cushion craft), Textron Marine (air cushion craft) and McDermott (mi- nehunters).
More than $6.1 billion has been appropriated for procurement of weapon systems. This provides funding for 66 Trident 11 missiles, 510 Tomahawk missiles, 320 MK48
ADCAP torpedoes and 140 MK50 advanced lightweight torpedoes.
Major beneficiaries of this funding are Lockheed (Trident II missile),
General Dynamics and McDonnell
Douglas (Tomahawk missile),
Hughes and Westinghouse (MK48
ADCAP torpedo).

A total of $4.8 billion has been approved for procurement of ship support and other support equip- ment. Much of this equipment is earmarked for the fleet moderniza- tion program. A major beneficiary is
General Electric (sonar upgrades).
Citing slippage in ship overhaul schedules, Congress cut $200 million from the budget request for equip- ment and systems earmarked for fleet modernization. Because of maintenance slippage attributable to shortage of O&M funds, equip- ment has been arriving at a faster rate than the pace of installation.
Parts inventory has grown as a re- sult. This cut is intended to bring inventory down to a more reason- able level.
The research and development budget is set at $9.4 billion. Among the major programs are the new submarine combat system, various antisubmarine warfare systems and the new SeaLance missile.
Quanities for ships and major weapon systems funded in FY 1989 are shown in Exhibits 1. and 2.
Ship Maintenance
And Repair
Congress added $240 million to the Navy's budget request for ship modernization and maintenance.
These additional funds are to be used for installing the VLS system in two Spruance destroyers and per- forming New Threat Upgrade over- hauls on surface combatants during this year.
An additional $97 million was added to the budget to repair the frigate Samuel Roberts. This work is to be performed by Bath Iron
Works.
