Defense Transportation: DOD Should Ensure that the Final Size and Mix of Airlift Force Study Plan Includes Sufficient Detail to Meet the Terms of the Law and Inform Decision Makers
Global mobility is a key component of U.S. national security. Since the end of the Cold War, senior decision makers have relied upon Department of Defense (DOD) mobility studies to provide insights they need to build and maintain the right mix of mobility capabilities.

According to DOD officials, the department plans to issue the next mobility study -- the Mobility Capabilities Requirements Study -- in the spring of 2009.

In accomplishing these missions, DOD depends on its airlift force.
