In many ways, 2023 was a year of chaos. Chaos in Congress, with former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy barely getting the job, then losing it nine months later. Chaos with the budget, which, as of this writing, Congress still has not settled on. Chaos geopolitically, with the Ukraine war continuing to rage and then, in October, the assault by Hamas on Israel leading to another major conflict.
So it’s not a surprise that the defense community had a lot of thoughts to share throughout the year. And share they did: In 2023, Breaking Defense published over 100 op-eds and analytical pieces. What you’re reading now is our attempt to collect just some of those in one place.
