The House Appropriations Committee approved their spending bill that saw cuts to select Air Force programs and budget requests, while boosting others.

The White House budget office wants to raid a Navy radar-plane account and a classified Air Force line to pull the E-7 Wedgetail back from the dead.

Pentagon negotiators are pressing contractors to move much faster to boost output.

The request includes $67.15 billion for the military, including $21 billion for munitions and to strengthen the U.S. industrial base.

The Pentagon has updated their guidance on influenza vaccinations, giving select forces and agencies exceptions to the optional policy.

It marks the first time both chambers approved directing a president to remove armed forces from hostilities since the War Powers Act was adopted in 1973.
