U.S. Department Of Defense Proposed FY22 Budget Request

 

Defense One: Eyeing China, Biden’s First Pentagon Budget Would Cut Troops, Buy Future Weapons 

DepSecDef Hicks called the president’s $715 billion spending request “a foundation for fielding a full range of needed capabilities.”

Republicans called it “a cut.” The Biden administration is proposing cuts to the military’s ranks and arsenals in an effort to invest in a new generation of high-tech weapons to counter China. 

In a $715 billion spending plan sent to Congress Friday, the Biden administration proposes sidelining ships and hundreds of aircraft to pay for fast-flying hypersonic missiles and newer generation warships. 

“To defend the nation, the department in this budget takes a clear-eyed approach to Beijing and provides the investments to prioritize China as our pacing challenge,” Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks said Friday. 

“The PRC has become increasingly competitive in the Indo-Pacific region and around the world. It has the economic, military and technological capability to challenge the international system and American interests within it.”
