Defense Planning Guidance

Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) is a strategic document used by governments, particularly in the military context, to outline priorities, goals, and resource allocation for national defense. It serves as a roadmap for defense agencies, helping them to prepare for various threats and challenges by assessing capabilities, setting budgets, and planning military operations. By providing clear guidelines, the DPG ensures that defense activities align with national security objectives, enabling effective responses to potential conflicts and the safeguarding of a nation’s interests.
