Weinberger, congressmen spar
over conditions on Lavi funding
by Joseph Polakoff
TSI’s Washington correspondent
WASHINGTON—Secretary of
Defense Caspar Weinberger and
influential congressmen appear
headed for controversy over his
attachment of conditions to the
Pentagon's belated release of $67
million for contracts involving Is
rael’s Lavi jet fighters that was
unveiled in July.
Weinberger said through a De
fense Department spokesman,
Larry Icenogle, that the Pentagon
is studying various alternatives to
reduce production expenses and
expects Israel to “review the matter
with us.’’ Icenogle indicated the
possibility of a co-production a-
greement with a U.S. defense con
tractor and use of Israeli gun and
missile-control systems on a U.S.-
built air frame.
The U.S., which is funding much

of the Lavi’s cost, has put up about
a billion dollars toward its produc
tion. The Pentagon said that each
plane will cost about $22 million
while Israel’s estimate is $15 mil
lion. Most of the money goes to
American contractors.
A group of congressmen headed
by Reps. Les Aspin (D-Wis.), chair
man of the House Armed Services
Committee, and Mel Levine (D-
Calif.), a leading member of the
House Foreign Affairs Commit
tee, protested to Weinberger in
mid-July against the Pentagon
slowdown in releasing funds ear
marked for the Lavi. Referring to
the conditions Icenogle mentioned,
an aide to Levine said to The
Southern Israelite that they were
“not appropriate,” and that he was
“totally dissatisfied” with the Pen
tagon’s position. The group that
wrote to Weinberger, the aide said,
“will respond in some way to the
conditions attached to future co
operation with Israel on the Lavi.”
