U.S. Strategy in the 1990s: Requirements versus Resources

Anthony H. Cordesman

The ANNALS of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, 1991, vol. 517, issue 1, 39-65

Abstract: Especially in a decade of heightened budgetary restraints, the United States will continue to confront the practical problem of how to reduce strategic commitments and force levels in keeping with future military roles and missions. It will be necessary to break the cycle of the past in which the United States formulated strategies and requirements that could not be met and then procured forces based on available funds simply by cutting the share of the pie for each service.
