Book Description
GAO reviewed the development and production of the Sheridan Weapon System and the M60A1E1 and M60A1E2 tank systems. GAO noted that: (1) the Army has purchased Sheridans, M60A1E1 tank turrets, and M60A1E2 tanks which will require substantial modification before they will be fully suitable for operational use; (2) appreciable quantities have been authorized for production despite known development deficiencies in essential components; (3) as a result, many of these weapons have been put into storage instead of being added to the combat effectiveness of the Army as planned; and (4) GAO believes this situation occurred because of: (a) the absence of specific and agreed upon ammunition performance requirements early in the development program; (b) insufficient testing prior to limited production; (c) the development of portions of a weapon system being out of phase with each other; (d) the desire to minimize the possibility of program fund restrictions as a major factor in approving production authorizations; (e) the failure to take timely actions to limit or terminate weapon production where warranted; (f) delay in initiating backup development effort for a deficient weapon system component; and (g) the commitment of unproven weapon concepts to other systems prior to acceptability in the initial application.
