This book was released on 2015-01-16 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Equipment Program in support of the President's Budget 2015 (AEP PB describes the Army Research, Development and Acquisition (RDA) budget for key capability portfolio areas and the Science and Technology portion of the Fiscal Year 2015 (FY 2015) President's Budget request. The AEP PB 15 is renamed this year to better reflect the focus of the Army's portfolio management and equipment descriptions, but flows from the previous Army Equipment Modernization Strategy and 2014 Army Equipment Modernization Plan. This document delineates RDA investments into 11 capability portfolio areas, highlights the portfolio accomplishments over the last two years and provides intent for FY 2015 investments. The dollars and quantities in this document reflect President's Budget 2015. The objective of Army equipment modernization is to enable our Soldiers to fight and win across the entire range of military operations by developing and fielding versatile and tailorable equipment that is affordable, sustainable and cost-effective. The Army has developed several initiatives to guide equipment modernization during this period of fiscal constraint. The Total Army focuses equipping modernization on the Soldier and squad providing them with the Network and key enablers. We use incremental improvements to improve existing systems as our first option and build new systems only by exception. The Army is divesting older systems and niche capabilities to decrease sustainment costs and generate additional resources for modernization and readiness. Next, we are developing smaller procurement objectives because the Army cannot afford to equip and sustain the entire force with the most advanced equipment. Our procurements are to insert needed technologies and capability improvements, leveraging commercial investment where we are "technology-takers" (e.g., information technology, fixed wing aviation) and our own focused investments in technology where we are "technology-makers" (e.g., lethality, armor, rotary wing aviation). Finally, each equipment decision is reviewed to ensure it is both affordable within the overall budget and is cost-effective in addressing the capability gap.

This book was released on 2016-01-03 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army Equipment Program in support of the President's Budget 2016 (AEP PB 16) describes the Army RDA budget for key capability portfolio areas and the S&T portion of the Fiscal Year 2016 President's Budget request. The AEP PB 16 flows from the recent Army Equipment Modernization Strategy revision and the 2015 Army Equipment Program in support of the President's Budget 2015. This document delineates RDA investments into 11 capability portfolio areas, highlights the portfolio accomplishments over the last two years and provides intent for FY 2016 investments. The dollars and quantities in this document reflect President's Budget 2016. Total Army equipment modernization enters a critical funding year. This year's budget represents Total Army equipment modernization during a period where the operational and fiscal environments are straining Army efforts to balance modernization to meet current demands while building the foundations of a force that can meet future challenges. Over the past several years the Army has absorbed significant reductions in RDA accounts increasing risk to Soldiers as the velocity of instability increases around the world. When Budget Control Act (BCA) of 2011 levels of funding return in FY 2016 the Army will be vulnerable to delay, restructure or termination of over 80 acquisition programs, particularly large ones. Trends in threats, the operating environment, and technology highlight the enduring need for ready Army forces operating as part of joint, interorganizational, and multinational teams to prevent conflict, shape security environments, and win in a complex world. Enemies, adversaries, and individual threats make future armed conflict complex. The Army's competitive advantages in the land, air, maritime, space, and cyberspace domains are challenged by elusive and capable combatants. Advanced technologies will transfer readily to state and nonstate actors imposing costly capability gap solutions on the Total Army. The complexity of future armed conflict will require Army forces capable of conducting missions in the homeland or in foreign lands including defense support of civil authorities, international disaster relief and humanitarian assistance, security cooperation activities, crisis response, or large-scale operations to be well equipped and modernized. Army forces have long been essential to preventing conflict through the forward positioning or rotation of forces overseas. Regionally engaged Army forces are needed to build partner capability, assure allies, and deter adversaries. The Department of Defense (DoD) requires the Army, as part of the Joint Force, to deploy credible and reliable combined arms capabilities across the range of military operations. To prevent conflict, shape security environments and win wars in a complex world, Army forces will be essential for projecting national power through support for diplomatic, political, law enforcement, economic development, and other efforts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The federal government wastes your tax dollars worse than a drunken sailor on shore leave. The 1984 Grace Commission uncovered that the Department of Defense spent $640 for a toilet seat and $436 for a hammer. Twenty years later things weren't much better. In 2004, Congress spent a record-breaking $22.9 billion dollars of your money on 10,656 of their pork-barrel projects. The war on terror has a lot to do with the record $413 billion in deficit spending, but it's also the result of pork over the last 18 years the likes of: - $50 million for an indoor rain forest in Iowa - $102 million to study screwworms which were long ago eradicated from American soil - $273,000 to combat goth culture in Missouri - $2.2 million to renovate the North Pole (Lucky for Santa!) - $50,000 for a tattoo removal program in California - $1 million for ornamental fish research Funny in some instances and jaw-droppingly stupid and wasteful in others, The Pig Book proves one thing about Capitol Hill: pork is king!

Download or read book Chinese Military Reform in the Age of Xi Jinping Drivers Challenges and Implications written by Joel Wuthnow and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) has embarked on its most wide-ranging and ambitious restructuring since 1949, including major changes to most of its key organizations. The restructuring reflects the desire to strengthen PLA joint operation capabilities- on land, sea, in the air, and in the space and cyber domains. The reforms could result in a more adept joint warfighting force, though the PLA will continue to face a number of key hurdles to effective joint operations, Several potential actions would indicate that the PLA is overcoming obstacles to a stronger joint operations capability. The reforms are also intended to increase Chairman Xi Jinping's control over the PLA and to reinvigorate Chinese Communist Party (CCP) organs within the military. Xi Jinping's ability to push through reforms indicates that he has more authority over the PLA than his recent predecessors. The restructuring could create new opportunities for U.S.-China military contacts.

Download or read book Unified Action Partners Quick Reference Guide written by United States Army and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-18 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This quick reference guide describes U.S. Army organizations, planning, and operations. Unified action partners (UAPs) are those military forces, of the private sector with whom U.S. Army forces plan, coordinate, synchronize, and integrate during the conduct of operations (Army Doctrine Reference Publication 3-0, Unified Land Operations).UAPs include joint forces (activities in which elements of two or more U.S. military departments participate), multinational forces, and U.S Government (USG) agencies and departments. The Iraq and Afghanistan wars highlight the necessity for collaboration, cooperation, and synchronization among USG, NGOs, and private sector agencies to focus the elements of national power in achieving national strategic objectives. Our experience in these conflicts accentuates the importance of foreign governments, agencies, and militaries participating, in concert with the United States, to achieve common objectives. Meeting the challenges of complex environments, infused with fragile or failing nation states, non-state actors, pandemics, natural disasters, and limited resources, requires the concerted effort of all instruments of U.S. national power plus foreign governmental agencies, military forces, and civilian organizations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2019 Missile Defense Review - January 2019 According to a senior administration official, a number of new technologies are highlighted in the report. The review looks at "the comprehensive environment the United States faces, and our allies and partners face. It does posture forces to be prepared for capabilities that currently exist and that we anticipate in the future." The report calls for major investments from both new technologies and existing systems. This is a very important and insightful report because many of the cost assessments for these technologies in the past, which concluded they were too expensive, are no longer applicable.
