Read them and weep. $1 billion for NGAD in FY21, which is a big cut.

No P-8s, despite unfunded requirement to replace Navy Reserve P-3C squadrons.

115 fighters: 79 F-35s, 12 F-15EXs & 24 Super Hornets.

And $100 million for five Armed Overwatch aircraft for USSOCOM.


...

What is the Air Force cutting?
-17 B-1s
-24 Block 2 and 3 Global Hawks (but buying 5 E-11As over next 5 years)
-44 A-10s
-16 KC-10s
-13 KC-135s
-24 C-130Hs (but getting 19 Js)
