The Department of Defense is developing two missiles, the Army's Pershing II and the Air Force's Ground Launched Cruise Missile, as part of a program to modernize its theater nuclear forces in Europe. The two missiles are to provide the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) with the capability to launch land-based theater nuclear missiles from Western Europe that can strike targets within the Soviet Union. GAO studied the progress being made in developing the missiles for eventual deployment in Europe. The Army's schedule for developing and producing the initial quantities of Pershing II missiles contains a high degree of concurrency. Considerable subsystem and component testing has not surfaced any significant problems with Pershing II. However, the limited number of live firings held so far does not appear sufficient to indicate whether the system will be able to meet all of its performance objectives by the scheduled initial deployment date. The Ground Launched Cruise Missile contains many critical unknowns as it still must be tested in a realistic operational environment. The recent slip in the cruise missile's test schedule raises further concerns about the program. Since any modifications after deployment of the missiles could result in considerable cost, the two programs will bear close watching to assure that they perform satisfactorily before deployment begins.

The Department of Defense is developing two missiles, the Army's Pershing II and the Air Force's Ground Launched Cruise Missile, as part of a program to modernize its theater nuclear forces in Europe. The two weapons are to provide the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) with a capability to launch landbased theater nuclear missiles from Western Europe that can strike targets within the Soviet Union. Deployed theater nuclear missiles cannot reach beyond the Soviet satellite countries of the Warsaw Pact. This report presents on some of the implications of the decision by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to modernize its theater nuclear forces. It also covers the progress being made in developing Pershing II and the Ground Launched Cruise Missile for eventual deployment in Europe.
