(Public Law 103-337; 108 Stat. 2844) that the heavy cruiser U.S.S. 
INDIANAPOLIS (CA-35)--
            (1) served the people of the United States with valor and 
        distinction throughout World War II in action against enemy 
        forces in the Pacific Theater of Operations from December 7, 
        1941 to July 29, 1945;
            (2) with her courageous and capable crew, compiled an 
        impressive combat record during the war in the Pacific, 
        receiving in the process 10 battle stars in actions from the 
        Aleutians to Okinawa;
            (3) rendered invaluable service in anti-shipping, shore 
        bombardment, anti-air, and invasion support roles and serving 
        as flagship for the Fifth Fleet under Admiral Raymond Spruance 
        and flagship for the Third Fleet under Admiral William F. 
        Halsey; and
             (4) transported the world's first operational atomic bomb 
        from the United States to the Island of Tinian, accomplishing 
        that mission at a record average speed of 29 knots.

        Pacific; and
            (2) the selfless, courageous, and outstanding performance 
        of duty by that ship and her crew throughout the war in the 
        Pacific reflects great credit upon the ship and her crew, thus 
        upholding the very highest traditions of the United States 
        Navy.
    (c) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that the 
President should award a Presidential Unit Citation to the crew of the 
U.S.S. INDIANAPOLIS (CA-35) in recognition of the courage and skill 
displayed by the members of the crew of that vessel throughout World 
War II.
    (2) A citation described in paragraph (1) may be awarded without 
regard to any provision of law or regulation prescribing a time 
limitation that is otherwise applicable with respect to recommendation

            (1) Current inventories of many precision munitions of the

        Defense for two Major Theater Wars, and with respect to some 
        precision munitions, such requirements will not be met even 
        after planned acquisitions are made.
            (2) Production lines for certain critical precision 
        munitions have been shut down, and the start-up production of 
        replacement precision munitions leaves a critical gap in 
        acquisition of follow-on precision munitions.
            (3) Shortages of conventional air-launched cruise missiles 
        and Tomahawk missiles during Operation Allied Force indicate 
        the critical need to maintain robust inventories of precision 
        munitions.
    (b) Reports.--(1) Not later than 90 days after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Defense shall submit to the 
congressional defense committees a report on the requirements of the 
Department of Defense for quantities of precision munitions for two 
Major Theater Wars, and when such requirements will be met for each 
precision munition.
    (2) Not later than March 15, 2000, the Secretary shall submit to 
the congressional defense committees a report on--
            (A) the options recommended by the teams formed under 
        subsection (c) for acceleration of acquisition of precision 
        munitions; and
            (B) a plan for implementing such options.
    (c) Recommendations for Options.--The Secretary of Defense shall 
form teams of experts from industry and the military departments to 
recommend to the Secretary options for accelerating the acquisition of 
precision munitions in order that, with respect to any such munition 
for which the requirements of the Department of Defense for two Major 
Theater Wars are not expected to be met by October 1, 2002, such 
requirements may be met for such munitions by such date.

SEC. 808. PROGRAM TO INCREASE OPPORTUNITY FOR SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION 
              IN DEFENSE ACQUISITION PROGRAMS.

    (a) Requirement to Implement Program.--The Secretary of Defense 
shall implement a program to provide for increased opportunity for 
small-business concerns to provide innovative technology for 
acquisition programs of the Department of Defense.
    (b) Elements of Program.--The program required by subsection (a) 
shall consist of the following elements:
            (1) The Secretary shall establish procedures through which 
        small-business concerns may submit challenge proposals to 
        existing components of acquisition programs of the Department 
        of Defense which shall be designed to encourage small-business 
        concerns to recommend cost-saving and innovative ideas to 
        acquisition program managers.
            (2) The Secretary shall establish a challenge proposal 
        review board, the purpose of which shall be to review and make 
        recommendations on the merit and viability of the challenge 
        proposals submitted under paragraph (1). The Secretary shall 
        ensure that such recommendations receive active consideration 
        for incorporation into applicable acquisition programs of the 
        Department of Defense at the appropriate point in the 
        acquisition cycle.
    (c) Report.--The Secretary of Defense shall report to Congress 
annually on the implementation of this section and the progress of 
providing increased opportunity for small-business concerns to provide 
innovative technology for acquisition programs of the Department of 
Defense.
    (d) Small-Business Concern Defined.--In this section, the term 
``small-business concern'' has the same meaning as the meaning of such 
term as used in the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 631 et seq.).

SEC. 904. FURTHER REDUCTIONS IN DEFENSE ACQUISITION AND SUPPORT 
              WORKFORCE.

    (a) Reduction of Defense Acquisition and Support Workforce.--The 
Secretary of Defense shall accomplish reductions in defense acquisition 
and support personnel positions during fiscal year 2000 so that the 
total number of such personnel as of October 1, 2000, is less than the 
total number of such personnel as of October 1, 1999, by at least 
25,000.
    (b) Defense Acquisition and Support Personnel Defined.--For 
purposes of this section, the term ``defense acquisition and support 
personnel'' means military and civilian personnel (other than civilian 
personnel who are employed at a maintenance depot) who are assigned to, 
or employed in, acquisition organizations of the Department of Defense 
(as specified in Department of Defense Instruction numbered 5000.58 
dated January 14, 1992), and any other organizations which the 
Secretary may determine to have a predominantly acquisition mission.

SEC. 905. CENTER FOR THE STUDY OF CHINESE MILITARY AFFAIRS.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) The strategic relationship between the United States 
        and the People's Republic of China will be very important for 
        future peace and security, not only in the Asia-Pacific region 
        but around the world.
            (2) The United States does not view China as an enemy, nor 
        consider that the coming century necessarily will see a new 
        great power competition between the two nations.
            (3) The end of the cold war has eliminated what had been 
        the one fundamental common strategic interest of the United 
        States and China, that of containing the Soviet Union.
            (4) The sustained economic rise, stated geopolitical 
        ambitions, and increasingly confrontational actions of China 
        cast doubt on whether the United States will be able to form a 
        satisfactory strategic partnership with the People's Republic 
        of China and will pose challenges that will require careful 
        management in order to preserve peace and protect the national 
        security interests of the United States.
            (5) The ability of the Department of Defense, and the 
        United States Government more generally, to develop sound 
        security and military strategies is hampered by a limited 
        understanding of Chinese strategic goals and military 
        capabilities. The low priority accorded the study of Chinese 
        strategic and military affairs within the Government and within 
        the academic community has contributed to this limited 
        understanding.
            (6) There is a need for a United States national institute 
        for research and assessment of political, strategic, and 
        military affairs in the People's Republic of China. Such an 
        institute should be capable of providing analysis for the 
        purpose of shaping United States military strategy and policy 
        with regard to China and should be readily accessible to senior 
        leaders within the Department of Defense, but should maintain 
        academic and intellectual independence so that that analysis is 
        not first shaped by policy.
    (b) Establishment of Center for the Study of Chinese Military 
Affairs.--(1) Chapter 108 of title 10, United States Code, is amended 
by adding at the end the following new section:
``Sec. 2166. National Defense University: Center for the Study of

              TITLE XII--MATTERS RELATING TO OTHER NATIONS

    (a) Report.--Not later than September 1, 2000, the Secretary of 
Defense shall submit to the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate 
and the Committee on Armed Service of the House of Representatives a 
report, to be prepared by the Defense Science Board in consultation 
with the Director of Central Intelligence, on the strategic stability 
of the future nuclear balance between (1) the United States, and (2) 
Russia and other potential nuclear adversaries.
    (b) Matters To Be Included.--The Secretary shall include in the 
report the following:
            (1) The policy guidance defining the military-political 
        objectives of the United States against potential nuclear 
        adversaries under various nuclear conflict scenarios.
            (2) The target sets and damage goals of the United States 
        against potential nuclear adversaries under various nuclear 
        conflict scenarios and how those target sets and damage goals 
        relate to the achievement of the military-political objectives 
        identified under paragraph (1).
            (3) The strategic nuclear force posture of the United 
        States and of Russia that may emerge under a further Strategic 
        Arms Reduction Treaty (referred to as ``START III'') and how 
        capable the United States forces envisioned under that posture 
        would be for the achievement of the damage goals and the 
        military objectives against potential nuclear adversaries 
        referred to in paragraphs (1) and (2).
            (4) The Secretary's assessment of (A) whether Russian 
        strategic forces under a START III treaty would, or would not, 
        likely be smaller, more vulnerable, and less capable of launch-
        on-tactical-warning than at present, and (B) in light of such 
        assessment, whether incentives for Russia to carry out a first 
        strike against the United States during a future crisis 
        probably would, or would not, be greater than at present under 
        a START III treaty.
            (5) The Secretary's assessment of (A) whether China and so-
        called nuclear rogue states probably will, or will not, remain 
        incapable in the foreseeable future of carrying out a launch-
        on-tactical-warning and be more vulnerable to United States 
        conventional or nuclear attack than at present, and (B) in 
        light of such assessment, whether incentives for China and 
        nuclear rogue states to carry out a first strike against the 
        United States during a future crisis probably would, or would 
        not, be greater than at present.
            (6) The Secretary's assessment of whether asymmetries 
        between the United States and Russia that are favorable to 
        Russia in active and passive defenses may be a significant 
        strategic advantage to Russia under a START III treaty.
            (7) The Secretary's assessment of whether asymmetries 
        between the United States and Russia that are highly favorable 
        to Russia in tactical nuclear weapons might erode strategic 
        stability.
            (8) The Secretary's assessment of whether a combination of 
        Russia and China against the United States in a nuclear 
        conflict could erode strategic stability under a START III 
        treaty.
            (9) The Secretary's assessment of whether doctrinal 
        asymmetries between the United States and Russia, such as the 
        expansion by Russia of the warfighting role of nuclear weapons 
        while the United States is de-emphasizing the utility and 
        purpose of nuclear weapons, could erode strategic stability.

Service of the House of Representatives, not earlier than one month 
before the beginning of that year, a certification in writing that such 
contacts during that year--
            (1) will be conducted in a manner consistent with the

            (2) are in the national security interest of the United 
        States.

        participants in those contacts.
            (2) A description of the military-to-military contacts
