12.8 over 5 years. But some of it has already been announced, like 2.something for new helos to replace the whateber the fuck helo;s that fly on the frigates that i can't fucking remember the name of for the life of me and its pissing me off because i was thinking about it a minute ago.

It'll be good, but I don't think it'll do much for expansion. Basically they need the money to keep up what we have right now. They say they are expanding regs by 5000 and reserves by 3000, but I doubt they'll beable to do that. People want to get into the forces, but theres pretty much a 1 year long waiting list because of all the logistics stuff that has to be done. Not enough people.
