摘要

With its Fiscal 2017 budget request, the Pentagon is shedding its posture of focusing almost exclusively on coun-terinsurgency and the all-out pursuit of terrorists, saying the threats posed by near-peers, such as Russia and China, are now its top priority. While the fight against ISIS and terrorism broadly will still be vigorous-and would get a huge boost in the spending plan now before Congress-the "base budget" request clearly emphasizes investment in modernization, research, and development geared for a future, high-end fight. The $582.7 billion budget request marks a full pendulum swing away from the policies of just seven years ago, when then-Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates fired the Air Force's top leaders partly because of what he viewed as their "next-war-itis"-what Gates considered to be the inexcusable sin of continuing to prepare for high-end major-nation warfare instead of bending every dollar and asset available to the lower-tech fights in Afghanistan and Iraq.
