Pentagon budget 2022: DoD requests less aircraft and related systems spending

by Pat Host

The US Department of Defense (DoD) is requesting USD52.4 billion for aircraft and related systems in its fiscal year (FY) 2022 budget request, which would represent a decrease of 7.9% from the nearly USD57 billion provided in FY 2021.

DoD requested roughly USD12 billion for the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) programme, 6.7% less than the USD12.9 billion provided in FY 2021. This is according to budget documents released on 28 May. The Pentagon wants 85 F-35s in FY 2022, 11 fewer than the 96 provided in FY 2021.
