                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To General Dynamics Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for
benefits of the General Dynamics Corporation Hourly Employees Savings and Stock
Investment Plan as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31,
1996. These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the
responsibility of the Plan Administrator. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the General
Dynamics Corporation Hourly Employees Savings and Stock Investment Plan as of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial
statements taken as a whole. The Combined Statement of Investments in Master
Trust Funds (Schedule I), is presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and is not a required part of the basic financial statement but is
supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The Fund Information in the statements of net assets
available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to
present the net assets available for benefits and changes in net assets
available for benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedule and Fund
Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated
in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as
a whole.

                          GENERAL DYNAMICS CORPORATION
               HOURLY EMPLOYEES SAVINGS AND STOCK INVESTMENT PLAN


                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                        AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995



1. The General Dynamics Corporation Hourly Employees Savings and Stock
   Investment Plan (the "Plan") is a contributory defined contribution plan
   covering eligible hourly employees of General Dynamics Corporation (the
   "Company") that have completed one year of continuous service. The
   following is a brief description of the Plan provided for general
   information purposes. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for
   more complete information.
   
   A member may contribute from 2% to 10% of base earnings up to $12.01 per
   hour and 2% - 6% of base earnings in excess of $12.01 per hour up to
   $16.01 per hour. Maximum contributions for represented employees are
   determined by the applicable collective bargaining agreements. In
   addition, members at some locations may contribute another 1% - 4% of base
   earnings up to $16.01 per hour on an unmatched basis.
   
   Each member shall direct his contributions to be invested in accordance
   with any one of the following options:

     1)   33-1/3% Government Bonds Fund, 33-1/3% Diversified Portfolio Fund and
          33-1/3% Company Stock Fund,

     2)   33-1/3% Government Bonds Fund and 66-2/3% Company Stock Fund,

     3)   33-1/3% Government Bonds Fund and 66-2/3% Diversified Portfolio Fund,

     4)   100% Government Bonds Fund,

     5)   33-1/3% Fixed Income Fund and 66-2/3% Diversified Portfolio Fund,

     6)   33-1/3% Fixed Income Fund and 66-2/3% Company Stock Fund,

     7)   100% Fixed Income Fund, or

     8)   100% Company Stock Fund.

Certain plan members not covered by collective bargaining agreements are
allowed to select investment Option 8, under which 100% of their contributions
to the Plan are invested in Company common stock. Participants selecting Option
8 receive a higher Company matching contribution of 100%. The nonrepresented
plan members who do not elect Option 8, receive a 50% Company matching
contribution in Company common stock. Contributions invested in the Company
Stock Fund must be held in that fund for five years before becoming eligible
for withdrawal or transfer to any other fund.

Also, with respect to participants who are eligible for selection of investment
Option 8, another series of plan provisions has been added:

     Investment fund transfer rules allow all plan members to elect one fund
     transfer per calendar year. Participants may transfer both their
     contributions and the Company's contributions invested in any fund to any
     other investment fund, except as follows:

     -    transfers may not be made from the Fixed Income Fund,

     -    funds may not be transferred into and out of the same investment fund
          during a transfer, and

     -    all investments in Company common stock must be held for five plan
          years before they may be transferred.

All Company matching contributions to the Plan after January 1, 1992 for
non-union participants and union participants who are members of unions that
have adopted the Option 8 provisions pursuant to collective bargaining
agreements are classified as non-participant-directed investments in the
financial statements. All participant contributions to the Company Stock Fund
and Company matching contributions to the Company Stock Fund for union
participants who are members of unions that have not adopted the Option 8
provisions pursuant to collective


                                    - 10 -


   11


bargaining agreements are reflected as participant-directed investments. With
the exception of the Company Stock Fund, all other investment funds are
completely participant-directed.

All non-union plan members and certain members covered by collective bargaining
agreements with the Company become fully vested in all investments purchased
with Company contributions upon the earlier of completion of five years of
continuous service with the Company or death, retirement, layoff (for four
consecutive weeks), permanent or total disability or involuntary entry into
military service.

Certain plan members covered by various collective bargaining agreements are
eligible to make additional matched and unmatched contributions to the Plan.
These additional contributions may not exceed the maximum percentages of base
earnings specified in the collective bargaining agreements.

The Plan provides that any special distributions payable to non-union members
with respect to Company Stock allocated to participant accounts would be
credited to the participants' Special Distribution Fund, rather than being
automatically reinvested in additional shares of Company Stock. Participants
are entitled to transfer amounts credited to their accounts in the Special
Distribution Fund to other investment funds. Special distributions include all
proceeds received from tenders or sales of Company Stock and other
distributions, except regular quarterly dividends which would continue to be
invested in Company Stock. Funds credited to these accounts in the Special
Distribution Fund would be invested in high quality securities. The Company has
negotiated similar changes in the Plan as applicable to unionized employees
with those employees' collective bargaining units.

In addition, the Plan was amended to permit non-union participants who have
shares of Company Stock allocated to their accounts to direct the trustee with
respect to tender of shares pursuant to any Company Stock repurchase program or
tender offer. Any proceeds realized from such share repurchase will be treated
as a Special Distribution. Similar changes have been negotiated with respect to
unionized employees in the Plan.

Nonunion hourly and union hourly active or employed inactive participants who
are members of unions that have adopted the loan provisions pursuant to
collective bargaining agreements are permitted to borrow up to 50% of the
vested amount in their accounts in accordance with the specific provisions of
the Plan. Participants may repay the loan by regular payroll deductions over a
period of up to five years.

2.   According to the Plan Document, the five plan funds may hold the following
     types of investments:

     a)   Government Bonds Fund - includes only direct obligations of the
          United States Government and its agencies or obligations guaranteed
          as to the payment of interest and principal by the United States
          Government and may also include other investments of a short-term
          nature as provided in the trust agreement.

     b)   Diversified Portfolio Fund - includes only common or capital stocks
          of issuers other than the Company, bonds or debentures or preferred
          stocks convertible into common or capital stocks of issuers other
          than the Company, and other similar types of equity investments, and
          may also include other investments of a short-term nature as provided
          in the trust agreement.



                                    - 11 -


   12
     c)   Company Stock Fund - includes only common stock of the Company.

     d)   Fixed Income Fund - includes investments in fixed income and other
          investment contracts with insurance companies designated by the
          Company and may also include other investments of a short-term nature
          as provided in the trust agreement.

     e)   Special Distribution Fund - includes obligations issued or fully
          guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest by the United
          States of America or its agencies, high quality commercial paper,
          certificates of deposit, short-term investment vehicles or any high
          quality securities selected by the Company or any investment manager
          of the fund.

     All of the above Funds may hold a small cash balance for purpose of
     liquidity and expense control.

     During June 1997, the Company extended the investment options for plan
     participants.  Two of the options offered in 1996 will remain available to
     participants: the Company Stock Fund and the Fixed Income Fund.  The new
     options include:  Bond Index Fund, Balanced Fund, S&P 500 Stock Index Fund,
     International Index Fund and Small Cap Index Fund.  These investment 
     options will offer participants the opportunity to invest in a broader 
     range of the risk/return spectrum for actively traded securities. 
     Description of the new options include:

     a)   Bond Index Fund - Includes investments in government, mortgage-backed 
          and asset-backed securities.  The Fund also invests in high quality 
          bonds.

     b)   Balanced Fund - The Fund is mixed portfolio of commingled stocks and
          bond funds.  The Fund is made up of international equities, U.S. 
          large cap equities, fixed income securities, U.S. small cap 
          equities, and a small cash balance.

     c)   S&P 500 Stock Index Fund - The Fund invests in 500 U.S. common stocks
          constructed by Standard & Poor's.  It may also hold 2%-5% of its 
          value in S&P 500 futures contracts.

     d)   International Index Fund - The Fund invests in over 1,000 stocks in
          major markets outside the United States and Canada.  Investments are 
          made in all stocks in the MSCI EAFE Index in approximate proportion 
          to the weighing in the Index.

     e)   Small Cap Index Fund - The Fund invests in all 2,000 stocks in the
          Russell 2000 Index in proportion to their weighing in the Index.  
          The Russell Index represents the smallest two-thirds of the 3,000 
          largest U.S. companies.

3.   The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of additions and deductions
     from net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual
     results could differ from those estimates.

4.   The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of
     accounting.

5.   The Company has received a determination from the Internal Revenue Service
     that the Plan, including all amendments through June 20, 1994, is a
     qualified profit sharing plan under Section 401 (a) of the Internal
     Revenue Code. The trust formed thereunder is exempt from Federal income
     tax under Section 501 (a). The Plan Administrator and Plan's tax counsel
     believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in
     compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
     Therefore, they believe that the Plan was qualified and the related trust
     was tax exempt as of the financial statement date.

6.   In the event the Plan is terminated, each member will automatically be
     vested in the undistributed Company contributions. Each member will
     receive payments based on the specific dollar amounts and shares of
     Company stock in his account.

7.   The assets of the Plan are combined in a Master Trust Fund for investment
     purposes with the assets of the General Dynamics Corporation Savings and
     Stock Investment Plan. The value shown in the accompanying financial


                                    - 12 -
   13


     statements represents the Plan's proportionate interest in the reported
     market value of the assets in the Master Trust Fund. Investment income and
     net realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to the
     respective plans based on their proportionate interest, at market value,
     in the Master Trust Fund.

     Administrative expenses are primarily paid by the Plan although certain
     administrative functions are performed by employees of the Company.
     Although no costs were reimbursed by the Company in 1996, the Plan
     document provides that these costs may be reimbursed by the Company.

8.   In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, amounts
     allocated to accounts of participants who have elected to withdraw from
     the Plan but have not yet been paid as of year end are not reported as
     liabilities on the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
     However, the Department of Labor requires that these amounts be reported
     as liabilities on Form 5500. At December 31, 1996 and 1995, amounts
     payable on withdrawals and distributions were $8,898,407 and $14,257,541,
     respectively. In addition, on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets
     Available for Benefits, 1996 distributions to withdrawn participants would
     have been $69,802,698 instead of $75,161,832 if the December 31 amounts
     payable on withdrawals and distributions had been included.

9.   Most investments held by the Plan are recorded at quoted market value as
     stated on public exchanges as of December 31, 1996 and 1995. The Company
     values its guaranteed investment contracts in accordance with AICPA
     Statement of Position No. 94-4, "Reporting of Investment Contracts Held by
     Health and Welfare Benefit Plans and Defined Contribution Pension Plans."
     The statement requires that investment contracts be reported at fair value
     at either the quoted market price from reliable third-party evidence or
     determined by discounting the future cash flows by an appropriate discount
     rate. Previously, the Plan accounted for these investments at contract
     value. The effects of recognizing the fair values based on the discounted 
     cash flow method resulted in a net realized and unrealized loss of 
     approximately $7 million during 1996 and a gain of approximately $16 
     million in 1995.
