In this paper, experts from five leading think tanks lay out 1) their preferred US defense strategies for the future; 2) the capabilities, investments and organizational reforms the strategies would require; and 3) the costs they would entail. Although the experts’ visions for the future did vary from each other, they also agreed that the Army needed more armored brigades, fire battalions, and air and missile defense batteries; the Navy needed to ramp up its underwater forces; and the Air Force needed to prioritize longer-range and stealthier platforms.
