@Turambar: The military's focus now in regards to training revolve around Pacific operations now. I'm sure running a Navy is much more costly than giving some grunts some trucks and guns. But I do not know where this 2 trillion dollars is going specifically. I'm not an economist, I'm just giving an example at the costs of a low-budget first-world Army.

The US Military doesn't need more equipments.
I'm not going to argue weither or not the military needs more equipment. I personally don't know. I have my grocery list, but my needs as an individual soldier aren't expensive. But that article is specific to the armor division, I don't think it's clear if that proposal is part of said 2 trillion dollars. Is it cheaper to keep Lima up and running and to reopen when tanks need updated/a new war? Maybe.
