"sources said the current development budget of $28.5 billion over five years ending in 2029 could be spread out over more time or scaled-back as the Pentagon searches for a cost-effective solution."

Gee, "$28.5 billion over five years ending in 2029", too much! America just can't afford it.
But OTOH, $61 billion for Ukraine in 2024, and unending support for Ukraine in the future, Yeah!

Talk about misguided priorities!
