>>the nation intelligently scaled back it's military procurement<<

It has been widely reported that the US military was overextended in recent years, with active missions in distant locations such as Iraq, Bosnia, Kosova, Haiti, East Timor, etc. In the current Afghan campaign there have already been shortages of smart munitions. Also there were only a few Predator drones and many have already crashed. The entire defense structure should get a thorough review in light of the current terrorism threat.
