摘要

The KC-46 tanker program is doing uncommonly well and figures to deliver on time and at the expected cost, according to the never-kind Government Accountability Office. But if Congress allows sequestration to resume in 2016-and there's no reason to think it won't-it will put a stop to such absurd success, potentially adding hundreds of billions to the tanker's cost and possibly throwing the whole project back open for renegotiation. In an April report, "KC-46 Tanker Aircraft: Program Generally on Track, but Upcoming Schedule Remains Challenging," the GAO determined that the Pegasus tanker is actually under-running its cost estimates by about $300 million, for a cost of $51.4 billion for 179 aircraft. The average program acquisition cost is now projected to be $287 million per airplane, some $1.8 million less per tanker than originally expected. The GAO warned that testing could slip due to delays in training air and ground crews, but noted that so far, "the program has not missed any major milestones" and that fabrication of the first four test aircraft is on schedule. The first is expected to roll out as soon as this month.
