Hey there @Mmm71,

How are you doing? The large jump in defense spending during those two years, would probably be because of the Cold War. During the period 1947-1950 real annual military spending never exceeded $60 billion; after 1952 it never fell below $143 billion and usually was substantially higher. They were doing this to avoid Communism spreading. Defense was very important. I hope you understand, and if you need more help, contact me!

Thank you,
Darian D.
