Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments
The Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments (CSBA) is an independent, non-profit, Washington, D.C.-based think tank specializing in US defense policy, force planning, and budgets. It is headed by Andrew Krepinevich, a West Point graduate. According to its website, CSBA’s mission is “to promote innovative thinking and debate about national security strategy, defense planning and military investment options… () to enable policymakers to make informed decisions in matters of strategy, security policy and resource allocation.”〔(www.csbaonline.org )〕 CSBA emphasizes initiatives the United States and its allies can take to wisely invest in the future, even during periods of fiscal austerity and uncertainty. CSBA evaluates its policy proposals through the net assessment methodology, wargaming, and by estimated impact on the Department of Defense budget over multiple Future Years Defense Programs.
==Background==
CSBA traces its origins to the Defense Budget Project, which was established by Gordon Adams in 1983 at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in order to “fill a vital information gap in the policy debate” during the Reagan Administration’s defense buildup.” In May 1995, the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments was incorporated in its current form under the leadership of Andrew F. Krepinevich, Jr. Over the next decade, CSBA played a prominent role in the debate over the revolution in military affairs (RMA) and the transformation of the US military.
Since September 11, 2001, CSBA has focused its analysis on linking near-term requirements to longer term challenges. According to the group’s website, CSBA “looks out two to three decades to identify emerging security challenges and opportunities.” CSBA describes its current efforts as “drawing attention to a set of worrisome and profound emerging areas of concern: a rising China threat in the Pacific Theater; a nuclear-armed Iran; maintaining the US defense industrial base; and realigning the defense budget.” Over the past few years, CSBA has played a prominent role in the ongoing development of an AirSea Battle concept by the U.S. Air Force and Navy.〔(What's New About the AirSea Battle Concept? | U.S. Naval Institute ).

CSBA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational organization. The group’s public education and research program is funded by grants and contributions from a range of foundations and corporations. The majority of CSBA's income comes from research support under contract with the Department of Defense, military Services and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).
