If the Air Force does not solve its Year 2000 computer problems in time, its computer systems could malfunction or generate erroneous information. The impact of these failures could be widespread, costly, and debilitating to important Air Force warfighting and military support missions. This report evaluates (1) the status of the Air Force's efforts to oversee its Year 2000 program and (2) the appropriateness of the Air Force's strategy and actions for ensuring that the problem will be addressed successfully.
