United States - Defense Budget Analysis, Competitive Landscape and Forecasts to 2024

Summary

Shifting from Post-9/11 asymmetric warfare to complete readiness for potential conflicts with peer- or near peer-competitors is a Copernican revolution for The Pentagon at every level: diplomatic, military, and doctrinal, and also in terms of procurement and training. Russia and China are normally identified as the top challengers of American hegemony around the world, notably from a military perspective. Preserving the status quo necessitates more expenditure in existing platform upgrades and new technology integration, evidenced by the current trend of budget allocation.

This year’s DoD budget will increase by 3% from FY 2018, which was already one of the highest recorded in history (although smaller than FY 2017). However, expenditures on actual acquisitions is in contrast to this trend. The procurement budget will hit $143 billion for FY 2020, after two consecutive years of $150 billion. More money is actually going into personnel, infrastructure, and O&M expenditure.
