President Joe Biden’s 2022 budget would continue a trend of providing a growing portion of the military’s resources to air and naval forces raising questions about how low the Army’s topline will go as a share of the Pentagon’s fiscal pie in coming years.
Air and naval forces went from a 48 percent share of the defense budget in 2013 to a 52 percent share in 2021, while the portion going to ground forces shrank from 35 percent to 32 percent during that same time period, said Travis Sharp, a research fellow at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments.
