Army Inventory: Current Operating and War Reserve Requirements can be Reduced

Abstract

Over the past 3 years, the Army has reduced its requirements for spare parts that are needed to meet current operating and war reserve requirements, called authorized force acquisition objective, about $10 billion-from $37 billion to $27.3 billion. The $10-billion reduction resulted from the Army's decision that a changed threat environment and reduced force structure would reduce the inventory required. Appendix I summarizes the efforts taken by the Army to reduce its current operating and war reserve requirements.
