DOD plans to spend about $70 billion during the next 5 years on military and intelligence space programs and activities. This represents 5.7 percent of DOD'S total planned military budgets during this period. By comparison, NASA plans to spend about $65 billion on the space portion of its mission during the next 5 years. In addition to intelligence, over 75 percent of DOD'S military space dollars are planned for communications, surveillance, launch vehicles, launch facilities, and satellite control. The remaining amounts are planned for navigation, meteorology, supporting research and development, and general support.
