Description

TODAY'S PENTAGON is led by its most widely respected secretary of defense in decades, one more in control and feared by the generals than any since the much-hated Robert McNamara. One would hope that with this stature, Robert Gates is nurturing a plan to reverse the decay afflicting our military forces. Think again. The only plan will make things worse. It was revealed in early February in an obscure, mostly ignored document that accompanied Secretary Gates's new defense budget--the "Aircraft Invest ment Plan, Fiscal Years (FY) 2011-2040." Though the Pentagon has never been able to stick to even the second year of any of its innumerable future year plans, it is confidently laying out a roadmap for the next three decades for all aircraft in the Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps.
