Summary
This bill directs the Department of Defense, in order to mitigate the risk posed to U.S. nuclear forces by the failure to replace the UH-1N helicopter, to make (and implement within 60 days) a decision for securing land-based missile fields using alternative helicopters, or making a change in security posture, until the acquisition process for a replacement helicopter has concluded.
