Long-Term Implications of the Fiscal Year 2010 Defense Budget

Abstract : Over the past seven years, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has published a series of reports about its projections of the resources that could be required over the long term (typically two decades) to carry out the nation's defense plans. This report presents CBO's analysis of the Department of Defense's (DOD's) 2010 budget request, which was transmitted in 2009, including projections of resource requirements for fiscal years 20100 through 2028.
