鉴于美国在军事上有可能介入中东,所以需要更强调发展军用电子系统以充份利用和保护现有的贵重器材。1981年度的预算是苏联入侵阿富汗之前编制的,正在编制的1982财政年度预算对此将给予更明显的重视。更有效地利用和保护现有贵重器材(简称BEPAA)计划是因为认识到不可能短期内大大加快新军用机种的生产,而航空电子设备的研制周期则较短。 Given the military involvement of the United States in the Middle East, more emphasis needs to be placed on the development of military electronic systems to fully utilize and protect the existing valuable equipment. The 1981 budget was prepared before the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the 1982 budget year now under preparation will give it a more visible priority. The more effective use and protection of existing valuable equipment (BEPAA) programs stem from the realization that it is impossible to significantly accelerate the production of new military aircraft in the short term, while the avionics development cycle is shorter.
