US Ground Forces in the US Army Budget 2022
Bayanalysis - Ground forces provide the combat power to reassure allies, deter aggression, and win USA wars. The U.S. Army 2022 budget improves the lethality and survivability of Army brigade combat teams by withdrawing vulnerable systems and investing in modernizing combat vehicles in armored brigade combat teams to include upgraded Abrams tanks, production of M109A7 Paladin self-propelled howitzers, and the construction of the Armored Multi-Purpose Vehicle (AMPV).
In fiscal year 2022, AMPV purchases 196 Command Weapon Stations (CWS): 65 that were part of limited user testing or LUT repairs and purchases 131 Hybrid Skirts. The U.S. Army 2022 budget also supports the upgrade of 187 Stryker vehicles for Major General Stryker's Combat Teams.
Alongside these efforts, the U.S. Army 2022 Budget continues its investments in research, development, testing, and evaluation of the family of future vehicle lift systems, the next generation of combat vehicles, long-range artillery, infantry support weapons, and radio for the Army's ground-based radio-controlled improvised explosive device (RCIED) war.

Another major investment in combat vehicles is the Marine Corps' purchase of 92 amphibious combat vehicles.
These systems replace the older amphibious assault vehicle and provide an armored personnel carrier with an appropriate balance of performance, protection and payload to support Marines across the anticipated range of military operations.
The March 2020 Marine Corps Planning Guide Commander focuses on the capabilities required to meet the approved naval concepts of Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO), Advanced Expeditionary Base Operations (EABO), and Coastal Operations in a Disputed Area (LOCE).

The Marine Corps continues to strip elements that do not support the force design capabilities identified above and is identifying capability gaps for future acquisition efforts.
The U.S. Army 2022 budget continues to make significant strides in close combat by investing in key recommendations made by the Killer Combat Task Force (CCLTF) that improve and enhance the lethality, survivability, and infantry performance of both the Army and the U.S. military.
The U.S. Army 2022 Budget continues the rapid field purchase of the Army's Integrated Optical Augmentation System (IVAS) that provides leap-forward technology to close combat forces.
