Reserve Component Equipping Challenges (Operational & Strategic Reserve Forces) The attacks on September 11, 2001, ushered in a new era of emerging threats and global instability marked by an increasing demand for U.S. military power. This resulted in the unexpected evolution of an enduring requirement for an Operational Reserve Force, necessitating a shift away from a Cold-War era construct intended to sustain a Strategic Reserve. The requirement for an operational reserve was validated in the 2008 Commission on the National Guard and Reserve Final Report, which concluded there is no reasonable alternative to the Nation’s continuing increased reliance on its Reserve Components for missions at home and abroad. In October 2008, the Department published DoD Directive (DODD) 1200.17, Managing the Reserve Components as an Operational Force. The directive established principles and overarching policies for managing the Reserve Components (RC) as an effective operational force and provided substantive steps for Total Force integration. Processes for Equipping Reserve Components: The annual President’s Budget (PRESBUD) request for procurement appropriations is based on validated requirements determined by and for the Total Force. The PRESBUD reflects and integrates two requests; the P-1, which contains the official Active and Reserve Component budget request, and the P-1R, which is provided as an estimate solely for information purposes and is not associated with actual appropriations. Despite the expectations of DoD and Congressional leaders associated with the P-1R, the Reserve Components rely on equipment filtered through the Active Component (AC) and their associated priorities. In 1981 Congress created an equipment appropriation for RCs that stood apart from the PRESBUD submission entitled the National Guard and Reserve Equipment Appropriation (NGREA). NGREA was a response to AC budget priorities and was intended to supplement the Services’ base procurement appropriations for the RC. However, the Services retain their Title 10 responsibility to fund and equip their respective RCs. The Services continue to employ an equipping mechanism termed “cascading” as the primary method for equipping their respective RCs. Cascading is the redistribution of older legacy items into Reserve units as new equipment is delivered to the AC. This traditional method was used extensively to equip a “strategic reserve” for large scale mobilizations in response to Cold-War era scenarios. Systemic Challenges in Equipping the Reserve Component: Despite the 2008 directive, systemic challenges impeding policy implementation persist.

  • National Guard and Reserve Equipment Report for FY2015
    NATIONAL GUARD AND RESERVE EQUIPMENT REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2015 (NGRER FY 2015) (In Accordance with Section 10541, Title 10, United States Code) March 2014 Prepared by Department of Defense Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Affairs Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Materiel and Facilities) COL Denise L. Loring, Editor Washington, DC 20301-1500 The estimated cost of this report for the Department of Defense is approximately $292,000 in Fiscal Years 2013–2014. Generated on 2014Feb28 RefID: 0-43F5A8A OFFICE OF THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF DEFENSE 1500 DEFENSE PENTAGON WASHINGTON, DC 20301-1500 FOREWORD The Reserve Component (RC) allows for expanded capacity and capability as a cost-effective part of the Total Force with global reach and flexibility. Since 2001, the RC has supported more than 875,000 mobilizations worldwide. Budgetary pressures will continue to require astute management of reduced resources to mitigate their effects. The RC provides capability and capacity at a reduced cost in a time of funding reductions across all components. The RC, when integrated as part of the operational force during armed conflict and peacetime, provides for a cost-effective force mix at acceptable levels of risk to support the defense strategy. The RC equipment levels are at some of the highest levels in history; however this era of postwar fiscal reductions will bring significant equipping challenges over the next several years. The Department has made strides in enhancing equipment transparency and accountability, but has not yet attained transparency into the Services procurement and distribution processes and outcomes. The Department must explore other options, such as separating the RC procurement funding, to meet the intent of the Commission on the National Guard and Reserve initiatives on equipping inadequacies between Active Component (AC) and RC.
