Analysis of the FY 2008 Defense Budget Request
Report (PDF file - opens in new window)
By Steven Kosiak

in coming years pressure will grow for DoD to scale back its plans, including both major modernization efforts (e.g., the F-35, FCS and DDG 1000 programs) and force structure plans. There is good reason to believe that by adopting a scaled-back and more transformation-oriented defense plan the United States could avoid (or offset) much of the cost growth that is otherwise projected in DoD’s plans, by CBO and others, and still adequately meet its security requirements. However, so long as a large US military presence is required in Iraq or it is deemed necessary to maintain the capability to conduct such large-scale stability operations in the future, it will be difficult or impossible to make reductions in some programs and activities—especially in Army and Marine Corps force structure.

By Steven Kosiak

The Bush Administration today announced that it will request some $483 billion to cover the peacetime costs of Department of Defense (DoD) in fiscal year (FY) 2008.1 In addition to this funding in DoD’s “base” budget, the administration’s latest plan includes a request for $141.7 billion to cover the FY 2008 costs of the Global War on Terror (GWOT), including military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thus, altogether, under the new plan DoD is projected to receive some $624.6 billion in FY 2008.
