As the last year wound down, Breaking Defense set out to do two things at once: summarize the biggest trends and stories from 2021 and lay out the key trends and stories to watch for in 2022. The result of that was our 2021 Year in Review/2022 Year Preview package, which we are now happy to present as a single, downloadable eBook.

2021 was, potentially, a pivotal year in defense, with the start of the new Biden administration opening up new areas of focus for the Pentagon and its partners. But the word “potentially” is important, as many of the ideas and goals stated by the Biden national security team ran up against real-world challenges: the continued pandemic, the disaster in Afghanistan, Russian threats of invasion of Ukraine, and the still-as-of-writing unresolved inability to pass a budget.
While looking back, we tried to highlight stories or trends that may have fallen through the cracks as major world events took place. What struck is just how much news there was last year. There is so much that happens on a day-to-day basis that stories can simply get lost or forgotten about days after they publish, no matter how impactful they may have been in the moment. Our 2022 predictions, meanwhile, focused on core issues for our readership, providing a roadmap of sorts for what to look for in the coming months.
This past year was one of astounding change for the Breaking Defense team, with our number of reporters doubling in size and an enhanced push towards international reporting. But one thing that this collection should highlight is that this team has always done exemplary work — a standard we expect to continue into 2022.
Topics: Air Force, Army, cyber, eBook, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Inc., Navy, Year in Review 2021
