In most years, the Department of Defense (DoD) provides a five- or six-year plan, called the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP), associated with the budget that it submits to the Congress. Because decisions made in the near term can have consequences for the defense budget well beyond that period, the the programs and plans contained in DoD's FYDP have been examined and their budgetary impact in subsequent years has been projected. For this analysis, the FYDP provided to the Congress in April 2011was used, which covers fiscal years 2012 to 2016. The projections span the years 2012 to 2030. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important, hard-to-find report.

In January 2003, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) published The Long-Term Implications of Current Defense Plans (ADA410669), which was based on the fiscal year 2003 budget and the Department of Defense's Future Years Defense Program (FYDP) of that same year. CBO updated that analysis in July 2003 (ADA416284); its publication The Long-Term Implications of Current Defense Plans: Summary Update for Fiscal Year 2004 revised CBO's earlier work to take into account changes incorporated in the President's budget for fiscal year 2004 and the 2004 FYDP. Because it was a summary, the July 2003 paper omitted many of the detailed data displays contained in CBO's January 2003 study. This briefing updates those omitted displays consistent with the 2004 FYDP. The briefing does not incorporate changes to the FYDP resulting from Congressional action on the President's fiscal year 2004 budget request.

In most years, the Department of Defense (DoD) provides a five-year plan, called the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP), associated with the budget that it submits to the Congress. Because decisions made in the near term can have consequences for the defense budget well beyond that period, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) regularly examines DoD's FYDP and projects its budgetary impact roughly a decade beyond the period covered by the FYDP. For this analysis, CBO used the FYDP that was provided to the Congress in April 2013; that FYDP spans fiscal years 2014 to 2018, and CBO's projections span the years 2014 to 2028. For fiscal year 2014, DoD requested appropriations totaling $607 billion. Of that amount, $527 billion was to fund the "base" programs that constitute the department's normal activities, such as the development and procurement of weapon systems and the day-to-day operations of the military and civilian workforce. The remaining $79 billion was requested to pay for what are termed overseas contingency operations (OCO)-the war in Afghanistan and other nonroutine military activities elsewhere. The FYDP describes DoD's plans for its normal activities and therefore generally corresponds to the base budget. DoD's 2014 plans are similar to its 2013 plans. CBO produced two projections of the base-budget costs of DoD's plans (expressed in terms of total obligational authority for each fiscal year) as reflected in the FYDP and other long-term planning documents released by DoD. The "CBO projection" uses CBO's estimates of the costs of military activities and the extent to which those costs will change over time; those estimates reflect DoD's experience in recent years. For comparison, the "extension of the FYDP" starts with DoD's estimates of the costs of its plans through 2018 and extends them beyond 2018 using DoD's estimates if available and CBO's projections of price and compensation trends for the overall economy if DoD's estimates are not available. Neither projection should be viewed as a prediction of future funding for DoD's activities; rather, the projections are estimates of the costs of executing the department's current plans without changes. Under either projection, the costs of DoD's plans would rise steadily over time. In addition, those costs would significantly exceed the limits on budget authority established by the automatic enforcement provisions of the Budget Control Act of 2011, as amended by the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012-hereafter referred to collectively as the Budget Control Act (BCA)-for all remaining years subject to those limits (2014 through 2021). To close that gap, which CBO estimates will average between about $60 billion and about $90 billion per year, DoD would have to make sharp cuts to the size of its forces, the development and purchase of weapons, the extent of its operations and training, or some combination of the three.

To provide information about its plans beyond the coming year, the Department of Defense (DoD) gener-ally develops a five-year plan, called the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP), that is associated with the budget it submits to the Congress. Because decisions made in the near term can have consequences for the defense budget in the longer term, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) regularly examines DoD's FYDP and projects its budgetary impact for roughly a decade beyond the period it covers. For this analysis, CBO used the FYDP that was provided to the Congress in April 2014; it spans fiscal years 2015 to 2019, and CBO's projections span the years 2015 to 2030. For fiscal year 2015, DoD requested appropriations totaling $555 billion. Of that amount, $496 billion is for the base budget and $59 billion is for what are termed overseas contingency operations (OCO). The base bud-get covers programs that constitute the department's normal activities, such as the development and procure-ment of weapon systems and the day-to-day operations of the military and civilian workforce. Funding for OCO pays for U.S. involvement in the war in Afghani-stan and other nonroutine military activities elsewhere. The FYDP describes DoD's plans for its normal activities and therefore generally corresponds to the base budget. DoD's 2015 plans differ from its 2014 plans in important ways. For example, in an effort to reduce costs, the cur-rent FYDP includes sizable cuts in the number of military personnel, particularly in the Army. CBO produced two projections of the base-budget costs of DoD's plans as reflected in the FYDP and other long-term planning documents released by DoD. The "CBO projection" uses CBO's estimates of the costs of military activities and the extent to which those costs will change over time; those estimates reflect DoD's historical experience. The "FYDP and extension" starts with DoD's estimates of the costs of its plans through 2019 and extends them beyond 2019 using DoD's estimates if available and CBO's projections of price and compensa-tion trends for the overall economy if DoD's estimates are not available. Neither projection should be viewed as a prediction of future funding for DoD's activities; rather, the projections are estimates of the costs of executing the department's current plans without changes. The amount requested for the base budget in 2015 would comply with the limits on budget authority established by the Budget Control Act of 2011 as subsequently mod-ified, hereafter referred to simply as the Budget Control Act (BCA). After 2015, however, the costs of DoD's plans under both projections would significantly exceed CBO's estimate of the funding the department would receive under the BCA, which limits appropriations for national defense through 2021. To remain in compliance with the BCA after 2015, DoD would have to make sharp additional cuts to the size of its forces, curtail the devel-opment and purchase of weapons, reduce the extent of its operations and training, or implement some combination of those three actions.
