IAW 2012 Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) directing Army reductions, the Army is reducing its Active Component endstrength by 80,000 Soldiers, from an FY2010 peak of 570,000 to 490,000 by the end of FY2017.
This reduction includes a reduction of at least 12 BCTs and the decision to move to a 3-BN design.
No force structure reductions in ARNG or USAR; RC BCT design will match AC.
Simultaneously, the Army will distribute and shape the remaining force to enhance readiness, increase balance and flexibility, and meet the requirements of the Nation’s Defense Strategy in a fiscally constrained environment.
The 80,000 Active Component reduction represents a 14% decrease from 570K in 2010 to 490K NLT 2017.
What The Army Announced
This announcement has nothing to do with BRAC or the potential impacts of Sequestration

BCT Reorganization 2 vs 3 BN
Extensive Modeling, Analysis, and CDR Interviews. Significant analysis included using 34 vignettes, over 6,500 hours of simulated combat (ranging from 7 to 72 hrs of operations), and extensive interviews with all the Army’s Division Commanders plus 23 combat veteran BCT Commanders.
Preserves combat power/Reduces HQs. This plan retains 33 AC BCTs with 95 combat battalions, eliminating 12 HQs. Only 3 fewer battalions than the 45 BCT force (98 battalions), and 13 more than the un-reorganized 37 BCTs (82 battalions). Hawaii, Alaska, and Italy will not receive a third maneuver battalion.
Increases Operational Capability. Reorganized BCTs with a third maneuver battalion, an engineer battalion, and enhanced fires capabilities are more lethal with less overhead. More capable BCTs to meet the New Defense Strategy. Analysis on future missions and scenarios indicate that 33 AC and 28 ARNG BCTs is sufficient to support COCOM demands. Minimizes cost (MILCON). The Army avoids almost all MILCON through internal BCT installation reorganizations. Reorganizing ARNG BCTs. The ARNG will begin reorganizing without growth by aligning 17 Tactical Combat Forces (infantry battalions) to 28 of their BCTs.
