See the comparisons of the U.S. net interest payments on the national debt with national defense spending from 1962–2025 using OMB historical budget data.
Interest costs surged during the high-rate environment of the 1980s, declined during the post-2008 low-interest-rate era, and have risen sharply again following recent rate hikes and rapid growth in federal debt.
