Region Nation Tfe Spectrlm Page A5 Monday, November 25, 1996 War veaponry Woman throws kids off roof, jumps to her death By JOHN DIAMOND aircraft and their relative effectiveness." It also found that "the air campaign data did not validate the purported efficiency or effectiveness of guided munitions, except in a qualified way." The Pentagon, which quoted from the classified report in its reply to the GAO. said the Congressional investigative agency failed to consider the difficulty of various missions when it evaluated the performance of aircraft and weapons in the 1991 Gulf conflict. The F-117, armed with laser-guided bombs, was-used against the most heavily defended Iraqi targets. Nonstealthy planes with "dumb" bombs were used most often against less-protected targets where U.S. aircraft could fly with relative impunity.

In a rebuttal letter sent to senior House and Senate mem Affairs," said precision weapons could allow the United States to destroy fixed enemy targets with one or two bombs instead of a sustained campaign. Actual Pentagon analysis of training runs shows that one laser-guided bomb has a 65 percent chance of hitting its aim point. One of two bombs will hit 88 percent of the time. The Pentagon reply states that during and after the relatively effortless six-week air-based campaign that drove Iraq from Kuwait, 'There certainly were some examples of such hyperbole. Nevertheless, no one has ever seriously ed to argue that one-shot, one-kill is a realistic expectation for our platforms and weapons.

Obviously, all machines and their human operators are imperfect." bers last week, the GAO stuck by its critique. It said it based its comparisons of weapons effectiveness on statistics drawn from similar missions flown by stealthy and nonstealthy aircraft. The main thrust of the GAO critique is that the Pentagon should reconsider its long-term plans to invest $58 billion in precision-guided weaponry. The GAO. noted that senior Pentagon officials have touted high-tech guided weapons as the wave of the future.

Paul Kaminski, the Pentagon's acquisition chief, wrote in a recent article in "Air Force Magazine" that "we are moving closer to a situation known as 'one-target, one This has been the promise for the past 20 years. Now it is becoming a reality." Defense Secretary William Perry, in an article in "Foreign The Associated Press 0 WASHINGTON Replying to a critical congressional report, the Pentagon insists the radar-evading F-117 stealth fighter and precision-guided bombs performed well during the Persian Gulf War. The reply, however, also appears to back down from 1 Pentagon assertions that the i' military is moving toward a A "one-target, one-weapon" capability, the ability to regularly knock out targets with a single bomb. Monday's edition of Defense a magazine covering defense matters, describes the Pentagon reply. Last summer, the General Accounting Office, an investigative arm of Congress, said in a 274-page classified report that it could find "no consistent rela-1 tionship between the cost of Police did not find any suicide note.

Neighbors also said they did not know why Roveal jumped, but one said she had been having problems with her mother, who was recently released from jail. "Her mother used to go back and forth to jail," neighbor Darryl Johnson said. "She raised herself and her kids. She always used to tell us her mother was never there for her." A law-enforcement source, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed that Roveal's mother was released from prison last month. The woman was not in the building at the time of the deaths.

Johnson said Roveal was a good mother.
