purchases from the United States
probably will stay at about that
level.
McNamara is worried about
where the next generation of weap
ons is to come from, informed
sources said.
He intends to inaugurate dis
cussion of a tank of the
future which the two countries
perhaps with the cooperation of
other NATO states could de
velop and produce jointly. That
tank would be the replacement for
the M60 now used by U.S. troops
and for the standard tank the
Germans have just ordered into
production.
Joint development of either a
short or vertical take off and
landing combat plane also is on
the agenda. The United States,
Britain and Germany already arc
jointly financing research in this
field.
