flag The US Army plans to reduce its force by around 24,000 personnel (4.5%) and restructure its force to better prepare for future major wars, as it struggles with recruiting shortfalls. flag The move will include cuts in Army special operations forces, but will also add about 7,500 troops in other critical missions, including air-defense, counter-drone units, and five new task forces with enhanced cyber, intelligence, and long-range strike capabilities. flag The changes aim to move away from counter-terrorism and counterinsurgency, focusing on large-scale combat operations against more sophisticated enemies, and highlight the recruitment challenges faced by all military services.
