The Pentagon plans to merge three combatant commands into two to cut costs and streamline leadership under the Trump administration’s “America First” strategy.
The Pentagon is planning a major overhaul of its military command structure, reducing combatant commands from 11 to eight by merging U.S. Central, European, and Africa Commands into a new U.S. International Command, and combining Northern and Southern Commands into a new U.S. Americas Command.
The reorganization, driven by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, aims to cut the number of four-star generals and admirals reporting directly to the Pentagon chief, streamline decision-making, and shift focus toward the Western Hemisphere.
The changes align with the Trump administration’s “America First” national security strategy, which emphasizes reduced global military commitments.
The plan requires approval from Hegseth and President Trump and is subject to a 60-day delay for a cost and impact review by Congress.
Critics warn the consolidation could weaken alliances and crisis response capabilities.
