US President Joe Biden has asked Congress to approve a fiscal year (FY) 2024 government budget request that includes USD842 billion for the US Department of Defense (DoD), up 3.2% or USD26 billion from the FY 2023 enacted level and nearly USD100 billion above the FY 2022 actual level, the Biden administration announced on 9 March 2023.

The request would maintain “robust deterrence” against China and Russia while enabling the DoD to continue countering Iran, North Korea, and “violent extremist organisations”, according to summary documents released by the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB).

“The president's budget request provides the resources necessary to address the pacing challenge from the People's Republic of China, address advanced and persistent threats, accelerate innovation and modernisation, and ensure operational resiliency amidst our changing climate,” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said in a statement.
