striker mods, the mrap and one of our modernization priorities have also been restructured. we recognize that there is some potential risk to the industrial base with these terminations and restructuring. we believe at this point it's manageable, but those are business decisions that will rest with the private sector and we won't be able to address any of them with certainty right now. i'd like to talk about what's included in the budget beginning overall with procurement appropriations. on this summary page, $19.6 billion in oco, down about $1.9 billion from our fy 12 request. you see, some of our key systems are highlighted on this page, but as we turn to the individual appropriations, we'll show you for all the key systems in each appropriation, the dollars invested by system and the quantities invested by system and i'm highlight a few in the interests of time. securing aircraft procurement. aircraft procurement request is $6.3 billion total for fy 13. that reflects the tremendous demand on aviation assets which is greater now than it's been since any time since 2001. we

one of the best things that was developed was the mrap and it saved a lot of lives and rustam on an expedited basis and was a good example of trying to produce something needed by the men and women on the fast pace, and we are continuing of the ghastly to do that kind of research to try to develop the best ways to try to protect our young men and women. all i agree with you, anybody that has seen the result has to shoulder at the devastating wounds that result from that. the of a piece of this though relates to the supply network and in some ways the relates to the safe haven pakistan that continues to supply a lot of this committee that is an area that we believe we have urged the pakistanis to address. we think that whole issue needs to be addressed if we are going to be effective to try to cut back on these. >> that was my next question coming and i know we've discussed this before but what is the department doing to put pressure on pakistan networks in the distribution of the ammonium nitrate? pnac we have made very clear to them that where these threats emanate from we've identified loca
