29 Defense Funding Goals (Dollars in Billions) $610 $590 Goal Minimum $570 $550 $530 $510 $490 Original BCA Caps FY18 gap >$30B $470 FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 FY17 FY18 FY19 FY20 FY21 29
30 Looking Ahead on Defense Topline o Desirable outcome Broad budget deal -- Address mandatories (> 60% of federal budget) -- Consider revenues -- Establish higher caps for discretionary spending -- Control deficits History suggests next year is key o Undesirable outcome Continued focus on discretionary spending Muddle thru with small budget deals 30
31 $800 Importance of OCO (DoD Discretionary Budget Authority in $ Billions) $700 $600 $500 $400 $ $ $100 $0 FY01 FY02 FY03 FY04 FY05 FY06 FY07 FY08 FY09 FY10 FY11 FY12 FY13 FY14 FY15 FY16 FY17 Base Budget OCO Supplementals 31
32 Future of OCO o Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) key to defense budget success Intended to finance war costs Not subject to caps o Pros/Cons of OCO Permitted DoD to meet warfighter needs Avoided timing problems caused by supplementals But increasingly used for non-war needs o Options Restrict OCO to temporary needs (most desirable) Keep OCO but revise (most practical) 32
33 Bow Wave of Spending in the 2020s o High rate production for current major weapons programs -- F KC-46 o New programs -- Ohio-class replacement submarine -- Bomber -- Army ground combat vehicle o Continued demand for readiness o Growth in operating and support costs o Additional force cuts problematic 33
34 How Big is Potential Bow Wave? (Projected increases above FY16 funding in FY16 $B*) $90 $80 $80 $70 $60 $50 $40 $30 $20 $10 $44 $60 $0 FY19 FY25 FY30 * Source: CBO Study (November 2014), adjusted 34
35 Accommodating the Bow Wave o Added topline o Transfers among services o Offsetting cuts within a service -- Further cuts in lower priority programs o Delay start of new programs o Reduce total buys o Stretch programs 35
36 Sharp Growth in Operating and Support (O&S) Costs* o Rapid long-term growth Consider cost per troop : real O&S divided by active military personnel Up 25% since 2000 Has grown relentlessly for past 50 years o Causes are diverse Health care costs Military pay costs Growth in maintenance complexity and costs Training to operate and maintain more complex weapons *O&S defined as O&M plus military personnel costs (excluding OCO) 36
37 Cost Growth Exerts Downward Pressure on Size of Force o Budgets and force size Since 2000: real base budget up 18%, size down 4% (# milpers) Since 1960: real base budget up 24%, size down 44% o Examples of actions needed Health care reform Limits on military pay so long as recruiting/retention sustained Monitor O&S during early phases of weapons design Make trade-offs early Look for technology that holds down costs, especially O&S costs Acquisition Reform Needs to Focus on Costs, esp O&S 37
38 Limiting End-Year Spending o End-year processes seek to obligate almost all available funds o Result Spending on lower priority programs o Tough problem to solve Incentives are strong o Approach worth trying Permission to carry over small amount of 0&M and military personnel funding 38
