Summary:

Describes AF aviation investment budget challenge posed by its need to replace several types of aircraft simultaneously, combined with budgetary restrictions in place under the Balanced Budget Act of 2013. Explains why this budget challenge does not look like a procurement "bow wave," with increasing numbers of programs with growing budgets all trying to fit within a fixed budget topline at the same time while building requirements for increased future funding. Addresses future changes for AF budgetary landscape, options to reduce impact of the bow wave, and issues for Congress
