Lawmakers forcing Gates to consider buying F-15, F-16 and F/A-18
An amendment sponsored by Reps. Frank LoBiondo and Gabrielle Giffords in the 2010 defense authorization bill would force U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates to submit within 90 days of the authorization bill becoming law, a report on the procurement of modernized F-15, F-16 and F/A-18s.
The move is to curtail a severe fighter jet shortfall in the Air National Guard.
