The Last B-2s: A Wobbly Iron Triangle
Abstract
Two years ago, Congress and the Administration agreed to halt procurement of B-2 bombers after funding 20 aircraft. The Republican victory in the 1994 congressional elections that gave them control of the House of Representatives, and the "iron triangle" of mutual interests formed by the Air Force, Northrop-Grumman and its subcontractors, and members of the key House defense committees whose districts benefit from B-2 spending, however, have revived the issue of further B-2 procurement despite the opposition of the Clinton Administration.
