According to the <a href="/wiki/Congressional_Budget_Office" title="Congressional Budget Office">Congressional Budget Office</a>, defense spending grew 9% annually on average in fiscal years 2000–2009.<a href="#cite_note-115">[112]</a> Because of <a href="/wiki/United_States_Constitution" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Constitution">constitutional</a> limitations, military funding is appropriated in a <a href="/wiki/Discretionary_spending" title="Discretionary spending">discretionary spending</a> account. (Such accounts permit government planners to have more flexibility to change spending each year, as opposed to <a href="/wiki/Mandatory_spending" title="Mandatory spending">mandatory spending</a> accounts that mandate spending on programs in accordance with the law, outside of the budgetary process.) In recent years, discretionary spending as a whole has amounted to about one-third of total federal outlays.<a href="#cite_note-116">[113]</a> Department of Defense spending's share of discretionary spending was 50.5% in 2003, and has risen to between 53% and 54% in recent years.<a href="#cite_note-117">[114]</a> For FY2017, Department of Defense spending amounts to 3.42% of GDP. Because the US GDP has grown over time, the military budget can rise in absolute terms while shrinking as a percentage of the GDP. For example, the Department of Defense budget was slated to be $664 billion in 2010 (including the cost of operations in Iraq and Afghanistan previously funded through supplementary budget legislation<a href="#cite_note-118">[115]</a><a href="#cite_note-119">[116]</a>), higher than at any other point in American history, but still 1.1–1.4% lower as a percentage of GDP than the amount spent on military during the peak of Cold-War military spending in the late 1980s.<a href="#cite_note-FY2010Budget-120">[117]</a> Admiral <a href="/wiki/Mike_Mullen" class="mw-redirect" title="Mike Mullen">Mike Mullen</a>, former <a href="/wiki/Chairman_of_the_Joint_Chiefs_of_Staff" title="Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff">Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff</a>, has called four percent an "absolute floor".<a href="#cite_note-121">[118]</a> This calculation does not take into account some other military-related non-DoD spending, such as Veterans Affairs, Homeland Security, and interest paid on debt incurred in past wars, which has increased even as a percentage of the national GDP. In 2015, Pentagon and related spending totaled $598 billion. In addition, the US will spend at least $179 billion over the fiscal years of 2010–2018 on its nuclear arsenal, averaging $20 billion per year. Despite President Barack Obama's attempts in the media to reduce the scope of the current nuclear arms race, the US intends to spend an additional $1 trillion over the next 30 years modernizing its nuclear arsenal. In September 2017 the Senate followed President Donald Trump's plan to expand military spending, which will boost spending to $700 billion, about 91.4% of which will be spent on maintaining the armed forces and primary Pentagon costs.<a href="#cite_note-122">[119]</a> Military spending is increasing regularly and more money is being spent every year on employee pay, operation and maintenance, and benefits including health benefits.

In FY2022, the US had the largest defense budget and expenditures of any other country in the world totaling around $777.1 billion. The rise in the military budget over the last decade can be traced to the production of new technologies such as a 5th generation fighter aircraft to meet the increase in demand for new combat capabilities.
