Military Airlift: The C-17 Proposed Settlement and Program Update

Abstract

I am pleased to be here today to discuss the status of the C-17 program. Based on the continuing work that we have been doing for the House and Senate Committees on Armed Services, we will provide updated information on C-17 cost, schedule, and performance issues and our observations on the Department of Defense's (DOD) proposed settlement agreement with McDonnell Douglas Corporation, the prime contractor on the C-17 aircraft. We will also discuss efforts to identify alternatives to the C-17 program.
