Forecasted costs for major Canadian Armed Forces operations

* Due to rounding, totals may not add up to totals as shown.

NOTES:

1. Incremental Department of National Defence (DND) Cost is the additional costs for personnel and equipment that are directly attributable to the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) operation. More specifically, incremental costs include the additional cost to deploy troops and equipment and to provide ongoing maintenance and support during the applicable operation, in addition to any specialized training required for the operation. DND does not include the full capital acquisition cost of major equipment in incremental cost, unless procured specifically for the mission with no life expectancy post operation. Based on Departmental decision and starting in FY 2016-17, aircraft operating costs and associated National Procurement (NP) will be considered to be within Yearly Flying Rate (YFR) and will therefore not be deemed to be incremental costs to DND/CAF.
