Pratt & Whitney was asked to refund $64.5 million.

A House subcommittee wants Pratt & Whitney to reimburse the government for faulty jet engine parts that the company sold the Air Force and for an F-16 fighter that crashed due to a defective part. At issue are 77,000 allegedly defective jet engine turbine blades, seven F-100 jet engines reportedly damaged due to the faulty blades and an F-16 that crashed in the Gulf of Mexico in 1983. Pratt & Whitney has disputed the charge that the engines and the fighter were destroyed because of faulty parts it supplied.
