Oft-quoted slogans can sometimes capture nuggets of wisdom that actually are helpful in informing our decisions in extraordinary times like these. Some slogans serve as heuristics and some to describe behaviors good and bad. Most are comfortingly familiar. Some slogans emerge when times are tough and we face difficult choices. Here are a few familiar ones that may prove helpful as we move forward into a much more austere defense budget environment.

In November 2013, the Deputy Secretary of Defense issued a memorandum titled Defense Acquisition, which stated that the 2008 version of the DOD Instruction (DODI) 5000.02 required revision in order to create an acquisition policy environment that will achieve greater efficiency and productivity in defense spending, and effectively implement the Defense Department s Better Buying Power initiatives. A year later, the Interim DODI 5000.02 was issued and required for use, and the final instruction...

After more than a decade of conflict, the United States is drawing down defense spending. The Defense Department must cope with declining resources at a time when it also faces persistent global threats and is under pressure to modernize aging systems to deter future competitors. Faced with declining defense budgets, aging weapon systems, and growing personnel costs, the Department of Defense (DoD) must avoid austerity measures that result in a hollow force and focus on how to maintain and...

The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) faces a tightening budget in the coming years. Despite the lean budget years, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) are expected to be a priority. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta has pledged to maintain or even increase spending in critical mission areas, such as cyber offense and defense, special operations forces, and UAS (Shanker and Bumiller 2011). Due to their usefulness for intelligence collection in irregular warfare (IW) and counterinsurgency (COIN), UAS...

For better and worse, 2011 was a banner year for US domestic and foreign policy in the fight against violent extremists.

Spring came to flower in parts of the Middle East leading to the collapse of dictatorial regimes in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. The United States observed the tenth anniversary of the attacks of 9/11 while Congress debated the scope and size of cuts to discretionary spending in the wake of the...

DOD's acquisition of major weapon systems has been on GAO's high risk list since 1990. Over the past 50 years, Congress and DOD have continually explored ways to improve acquisition outcomes, including reforms that have championed sound management practices, such as realistic cost estimating, prototyping, and systems engineering. While some progress has been made, too often GAO reports on the same kinds of problems with acquisition programs today that it did over 20 years ago. The topic of...

The challenge of providing an adequate defense with limited resources is a challenge to which all of us with leadership and management responsibilities in the Department of Defense cannot fail to respond. The international security environment, and the opportunity before us for a generation of peace, require a strong defense posture. This is why I want to sustain a process in the Department of Defense which, under my leadership and with the full participation of all its members, meets the...

Both the ongoing global economic crisis and historical defense budget trends indicate that the Department of Defense (DoD) could soon be facing a period of sustained pressure to reduce its topline budget. Since 1947, DoD has experienced cycles of decreased budgets after periods of significant increase. Therefore, the Department should consider how it might cope if it again finds itself in this predicament. The Chairman of the Defense Business Board (DBB) requested a review of the existing...

The report presents a new theoretical model of military alliances and other international organizations. The assumptions basic to the model are that nations act in their own best interests and that there is a 'public goods' aspect to all joint undertakings. The main conclusions drawn from the analysis are that (1) a less than optimal amount of resources will be devoted to an alliance or other international organization; (2) the burden of an alliance will be borne in a disproportional way, the...

This issue of L'Armement discusses new directions in civil and defense research. Following the end of the Cold War, pressure on defense budgets had a disproportionate impact on basic research. To compensate for reduced funding, research was closely targets to defense requirements. The General Delegation for aMmarnents (Delegation Generale pour l'Armernent) established research priorities based on Frances's and Europe's projected technology needs in 2012. This planning resulting in a 10 percent...

From fiscal year 2001 through April 2007, Congress has provided DOD with about $454 billion for its efforts in support of GWOT.

This paper reflects the GAO's observations on how well the DoD is planning and executing its $1.602 trillion portfolio of major weapon programs. Although the total projected cost of the portfolio remains significant, that cost has declined since peaking at $1.75 trillion in 2010 and is currently at its lowest point in over five years. In addition, the number of programs in the portfolio has decreased from 98 programs in 2010 to 86 programs in 2012. DoD weapon system acquisition represents one...

James Carafano's April 20, 2011 commentary, Resetting Missile Defenses is breathtaking in scope as it moves from missile defense, to the overall defense budget, to prescriptions regarding government-wide spending and national priorities. While there is much in his piece we agree with--particularly the importance of ballistic missile defense to the United States and key allies--some of his remarks fly in the face of the current realities regarding one aspect of the National Ballistic Missile...

With estimated acquisition costs of nearly $400 billion, the F-35 Lightning II also known as the Joint Strike Fighter is DOD's most costly and ambitious acquisition program. The U.S. portion of the program will require annual acquisition funding of $12.4 billion on average through 2038 to complete development and procure a total of 2,457 aircraft. GAO s prior work has found that the program has experienced significant cost, schedule, and performance problems. In 2009, Congress mandated that GAO...
