The new forecast presents two scenarios:
- One scenario funds all US Army and USMC vehicle programs according to future acquisition strategies communicated today by those services.
- A second scenario matches future funding levels to the current amount of base budget funding that ground military vehicles have been receiving.
Conclusions from Vector's May 2011 US Military Ground Vehicle and Armor Procurement Forecast:
- Vehicle procurement declines 38% from FY11 to FY12 and another 33% from FY12 to FY13.
- FY13 represents the lowest year of US military ground vehicle procurement from FY05 to FY20.
- FY13 is a particularly difficult year because it represents a transition between procurement of current force platforms with strong OCO requests and future year modernization plans that will depend on base budgets for their funding.
- Vehicle and armor procurement in FY14 to FY16 is very dependent on the US Army's ability to advance combat vehicle modernization programs through Milestones A and B into Milestone C and low rate initial production. This likely represents a larger risk to the industrial base than lack of funding.

Methodology
Vector Strategy analyzes DoD, Army, Navy, USMC, and Air Force fiscal year regular and supplemental budget requests, as well as congressional actions and budget releases throughout the year.
We also gather military program office communication regarding specific armor programs during conferences, in press releases and industry publications, as well as track congressional testimony regarding vehicle and armor programs.
We monitor contract awards, access contract documents, and adjust our procurement forecast based on actual contract quantities and contract costs.
Finally, we review vehicle and armor build rates of manufacturers to determine current production volumes to validate our estimate of current market size and estimate backlog and lead times.
