U.S.A. Military spending is INSANE
Video Summary
The US spends $716 billion on its military annually, making it the largest military spender in the world. The money could buy a country like Estonia or even fund surface on the moon. Despite a decrease in defense spending from 2011 to 2016, the 2019 budget saw a significant increase. The government has pledged to increase military pay by 2.6%, with $10.5 billion allocated for military base and weapons facility construction and improvements. The budget also includes funding for the purchase of new aircraft, including F-35s, and advanced weaponry, such as smart bombs and missiles. Over $43,000 JDAM kits, 7,000 Hellfire missiles, and 6,800 small diameter bombs will be bought, along with 10,000 guided multiple launch rocket system rockets. The US is also investing in future and upgraded systems, including the B-21 bomber and $4 billion for a new ballistic missile submarine class. With a budget of $716 billion, the US has a vast array of military capabilities, from aircraft to missile defense systems, and is a dominant force in global military spending.
