What proposed $1.5 trillion 2027 US defense budget means for global security

The Trump administration seeks a $1.5 trillion defense budget for 2027. That's a 44% rise in Pentagon spending, the largest such request in decades. It reflects the US administration's military investment priority over domestic programs, even before the US-led war against Iran. The proposed 2027 budget highlights the Trump administration's priorities. However, the US Congress, which has the sole power to determine federal spending, can reject it. So, how worrisome is a sharp rise in US defense spending, with the Trump administration's stated policy of military dominance over the Western hemisphere? As new drone, missile and artificial intelligence technologies change modern warfare, what can $1.5 trillion buy in military hardware? How does a far greater US military budget affect the global security architecture?
