Neuware - Does the Department of Defense have adequate funding to meet its requirements Does it have what it needs to defend the interests of the United States Does the defense budget need to increase, or can the Department accomplish the National Military Strategy with less Finally, what threats are driving defense budgets today and what type of military force is required On the surface, these questions seem easy to answer, but in reality, they are quite difficult.
