Consider this.
US Air Force.
During these times of declining budgets, the USAF is seeking to buy KC-46's, a replacement for the MH-60 Rescue Helicopter, more C-130's, a B-1/B-2 replacement, the F-35, and upgrades to the F-16, F-15 and A-10's.
US Navy.
Needs to replace Perry class frigates (unknown if the LCS is a separate class or is indeed a Perry replacement), buy more Virginia class subs, more LPD's, a future LSD, a future LHD, MLP's, a replacement for the Ohio class, a replacement for the Carrier Onboard Delivery plane, more MH-60's, more Growlers, more F/A-18E/F's, and the F-35.

US Army.
Needs to buy the Ground Combat Vehicle, Armored Multipurpose Vehicle, Bradley Upgrade, JLTV, Assault Breacher Vehicles (not sure if this purchase is complete), a decision on the M-1A3, UH-60M's, and AH-64E's.
US Marine Corps.
If you've spent more than 5 minutes here then you already know the deal. AAV upgrade, Marine Personnel Carrier, Amphibious Combat Vehicle, MV-22, CH-53K, F-35B, and JLTV.
I initially thought that the procurement train wreck was just a Marine Corps problem. I was wrong.
This is a DoD wide issue.
