This March, the world\u2019s largest aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford, <\/em>pulled into port at Souda Bay, Greece, scheduled for more than a week of repairs. More than 200 of its sailors were receiving treatment for smoke inhalation, a result of a laundry room fire that spread through the ventilation system into the carrier\u2019s sleeping quarters.<\/p>\n

The USS Gerald R. Ford was at sea for 10 months, long past its deployment length, and was reportedly dealing with electrical problems and delayed maintenance that led to overworked equipment. That was on top of sewage problems on the ship that left its crew unable to use its toilets.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

According to Linda Bilmes, a Harvard Kennedy School public policy lecturer and author of The Ghost Budget: U.S. War Spending and Fiscal Transparency<\/em>, the USS Gerald R. Ford represents a larger problem for the U.S. military: a massive tract of infrastructure and facilities without the proper structures to maintain them.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere you have $13 billion spent on the highest tech carrier in the entire navy, and somehow there wasn\u2019t a sufficient amount of money spent on maintaining the laundry conditions and the toilets,\u201d Bilmes told Fortune<\/em>. \u201cThat\u2019s just one example, but you have to question whether the resources are being allocated in a way that provides maximum benefits.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

A report published last week from the U.S. Government Accountability Office, the federal government\u2019s audit institution, found that across the Department of Defense\u2019s real estate portfolio of more than 700,000 facilities around the world\u2014some of which are at least 50 years old or date back to the Cold War\u2014the department is dealing with a $285 billion maintenance backlog in fiscal 2025 as a result of insufficient funding and personnel.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The findings included \u201cchronically neglected\u201d maintenance of some barracks that adversely affected the quality of life of enlisted service members, posing safety risks due to mold and broken fire systems. The report also noted crumbling parking lots at the Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota, which have been in disrepair since at least 2018, as well as narrow quarters at the Twentynine Palms Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in California, which could not accommodate the maintenance of Marine Corps vehicles.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis poses a risk to its missions and the quality of life of its personnel,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Pentagon did not respond to Fortune<\/em>\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This isn\u2019t a matter of just one administration mismanaging money. The Pentagon is the only major federal agency that has never passed an audit. While the department attributes the opacity around its procurement and distribution of its massive, $1 trillion budget to the sheer size of the agency and its responsibilities, the GAO has found evidence instead of pervasive money mismanagement. For example, the Navy lost track of $3 billion in equipment over the last three years, and at one Naval distribution center, there was a backlog of 122,000 items that had not been processed, and as a result, the Navy bought equipment and supplies it didn\u2019t need.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hegseth\u2019s implied Soviet comparison recalls the rigid structures that prioritized quantity over quality, leading the former superpower to spend up to 15% to 30% of its GDP on military industry, starving its economy and leading to its downfall. He called for defense acquisition reform, as well as systems streamlining contracting.<\/p>\n

But the U.S.\u2019s defense spending has key differences from the USSR, chiefly that it spends just about 3% of its GDP on defense. While the Soviet Union saw its military collapse because it became a poor country that ran out of resources, the U.S. military\u2019s exorbitant maintenance is instead a result of a wealthy country continuing to misallocate funds as its budget swells.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Policy experts like Bilmes suggest this trend is not just a perennial problem, but one unlikely to reverse anytime soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe question really is whether the whole system is serving the best interest of taxpayers, and I don\u2019t think it is,\u201d Bilmes said. \u201cAnd that\u2019s a larger problem and an older problem than just the last two years of the Trump administration.\u201d<\/p>\n

The GAO attributes the backlog of maintenance projects in large part to it being underprioritized and therefore underfunded. The Department of Defense did not request the full funding necessary for its maintenance needs, with the Army, Navy, and Air Force requesting just about 80% of recommended sustainment funding, according to the report. None of the eight installation maintenance offices GAO spoke with said they received funding that met the agency\u2019s 90% goal since at least fiscal 2021.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Part of this funding gap comes from the allure of building new facilities versus servicing old ones. Last year, GAO reported that the Pentagon invested $14.6 billion annually on average in the previous five years to build new military facilities. That\u2019s despite military service officials saying many facility construction and repair projects were approved by the service review board, but just did not get funded.<\/p>\n

Even with proper funding, the project of maintaining military facilities would have been jeopardized by shortages in personnel needed to carry out repairs. All 10 Department of Defense joint bases that the GAO had data access to had shortages of facility management workforce between 68% to 97% of approved positions from fiscal 2013 to fiscal 2023.<\/p>\n

The military has had trouble recruiting and retaining federal blue-collar workers who are specialists and required to conduct their work in remote environments around the world. To fill these shortages, the military often turns to contractors, whom they pay a premium.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cIt is very, very heavily reliant on the private sector, which is reliant on its own supply chain and so forth,\u201d Bilmes said. \u201cAnd if you want something fixed really fast, the military has to pay extra.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bilmes likened the difficulty of carrying out repairs on military facilities to having a broken washing machine, but on a much more vast scale: You have to call a specialized repairperson, who diagnoses the issue, has to order a part and wait for it to arrive, before installing it. And that\u2019s only if the washing machine is worth keeping and not scrapping altogether.<\/p>\n

These are challenges the military contends with in peace times, Bilmes said, and are made worse in times of conflict. NBC News<\/em> reported on Tuesday that Iranian missile and drone attacks caused billions of dollars in repairs for damage on U.S. intelligence posts and surveillance hardware in the region. A Washington Post<\/em> investigation in May revealed damage to at least 228 structures or equipment pieces across 15 military sites as a result of the war.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThis is a problem which has just been growing, but is significantly going to be exacerbated by the last six months,\u201d Bilmes said. She estimated the repair costs would exceed $200 billion and take between three to five years to fix.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s evidence to suggest the Trump administration\u2019s priorities may be coming at the cost of future maintenance projects. In July, the GAO released a report finding that President Donald Trump\u2019s increased military presence at the U.S.-Mexico border cost the military $2.64 billion, with that money being pulled from construction projects, facility maintenance, and accounts that support duty-station moves.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The neglect of U.S. military facilities highlights to Bilmes an issue the Pentagon, and the U.S. more broadly, has been grappling with since 2001, when the military budget began to balloon and eventually nearly tripled over the next 25 years.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Though she did not make comparisons between the U.S. and Soviet Union, she warned the lack of clear prioritization wouldn\u2019t be a matter of American collapse, but rather continue to unnecessarily endanger enlisted members serving on potentially dangerous, under-resourced bases, all the while draining taxpayer dollars.<\/p>\n

Within the military, \u201ceverything is important,\u201d Bilmes said, but it is sometimes hard to distinguish what is an urgent matter and what is not. The laundry and sewage systems of a massive ship may seem unimportant, she suggested, but choosing to prioritize other issues, including new construction, resulted in hundreds of injuries. The lack of clarity on what is considered most important can subsequently enable a maintenance backlog.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere has been a huge amount of money in the military\u2014what former [Secretary of Defense Robert Gates] called the \u2018culture of endless money\u2019\u2014but there really has not been a very clear way of allocating resources.\u201d<\/p>\n
