A New US Defense Strategy is emerging. Four prominent defense think tanks agree that future defense strategy must be in line with shrinking resources. DoD can’t do more with less. The US must defend itself more efficiently and our allies must do more for themselves. Likely future DoD reductions: European bases, F-22, F-35, healthcare, lead system integrators, contractor labor, nuclear arsenal, Army force structure, protracted land wars, incremental force modernization and one aircraft carrier group. Likely future spending increases will be toward: specific Navy & Air Force platforms, SOF, Space, Cyber, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, S&T funding for development of leap-ahead military technologies, operations & maintenance funding for existing military equipment and joint force cooperation.
