A Detailed Military Spending Cost Analysis by the CBO to Better Inform Policymakers and the Public

In this report, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) analyzes the structure and cost of the military from the perspective of major combat units, such as Army brigades, Navy aircraft carrier strike groups, Marine Corps task forces, and Air Force squadrons. CBO allocates most of the O&S budget and DoD s total number of military personnel among major combat units and their associated support units and overhead activities to provide a clearer picture of the size and cost of the major elements of the military s force structure. Such information can help policymakers evaluate proposals to change the structure or budget of the armed forces and better inform the general public. Tables and Figures, including illustrations of equipment, personnel and other dataare included to provide an easy method to understand this topic.
