Written by Todd Harrison, the think-tank's budget expert, the report discusses just about every angle of the Pentagon's budget problems. Personnel costs, training expenses, research, weapons systems, munitions, space operations, even the "black budget" get scrutiny. Harrison analyzes future trends and discusses options for savings and their risks. There have been numerous such studies of the FY2012 budget, but I think this one is particularly insightful.<p><a href="http://www.csbaonline.org/publications/2011/07/analysis-of-the-fy2012-defense-budget/">Click here </a>to read the report.</p></div> <ul class="links inline list-inline"><li class="node-readmore"><a href="/blog/csbas-todd-harrison-dissects-the-defense-budget" rel="tag" title="CSBA&#039;s Todd Harrison dissects the defense budget" hreflang="en">Read more<span class="visually-hidden"> about CSBA&#039;s Todd Harrison dissects the defense budget</span></a></li><li class="comment-forbidden"></li><li></li></ul> </div> </article> Mon, 18 Jul 2011 21:42:13 +0000 admin 11016 at http://archive.smallwarsjournal.com
