Long-Term Implications of the 2019 Future Years Defense Program

Abstract

In most years, the Department of Defense (DoD) produces a five-year plan, called the Future Years Defense Program (FYDP), that is associated with the budget it submits to the Congress. This report describes the Congressional Budget Offices analysis of the 2019 FYDP, which was issued in April 2018 and summarizes DoDs expectations about the costs of its plans from 2019 through 2023. Because decisions made in the near term can have consequences for the defense budget in the longer term, CBO projected the costs of that plan through 2033.
