          MUNITIONS LIFT TRAILERS FOR STRATEGIC  BOMBERS



Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee:

     We are here today to discuss our work on the acquisition

and modification of munitions lift trailers  for the nation's

strategic bomber force.  Our evaluation of munitions  lift trail-

ers focused on issues related to the quantity of  lift trailers

needed to support B-52s and B-1B bombers.  We also examined Air

Force strategies to improve lift trailer operational effective-

ness and reduce their acquisition and support cost.  Last week

the Department of Defense commented on our draft report  and con-

curred that lift trailer requirements for the bomber force

should be reevaluated.  This review is now underway.  We expect

to issue our final report within the next few weeks.
