Lastly, 2.4% per annum doesn't qualify as a "big" cut. Most of that 41% increase over the last three years remains.

I guess 60 billion sounds a lot bigger than 2.4%.

Agree about the Raptor, I'm surprised they'd cut the budget to their air-superiority vehicle of the future. Maybe they could afford them w/out missile defense... [/b][/quote]
If I was reading it right, its $10 billion a year over six years on a $420 billion annual budget. That's 2.4%.
