Highlights of the Department of the Navy FY 2013 Budget
Abstract
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 budget reflects a strategic inflection point as we transition from today s conflicts and position the Navy-Marine Corps team for the challenges of tomorrow. Aligned with the new strategic guidance for the Department of Defense (DoD) and constrained by economic and fiscal challenges, the Department of the Navy (DON) will continue operating forward across the globe, providing the nation offshore options to deter and defeat aggression today and into the future. Navy and Marine Corps capabilities and capacity will prove crucial as our Nation s focus shifts to the Asia-Pacific region. Additionally, forward deployed forces are a cornerstone to assured access to the global commons. Going forward, the Department will present a more streamlined force, born of this changing strategy and tempered by difficult decisions reflective of constrained resources. The DON budget request for FY 2013 is $9.5 billion less than planned for in the FY 2012 President s Budget. In total, the DON s FY 2013 President s Budget Future Years Defense Program (FYDP) incorporates over $58 billion in reductions.
