What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 2464 of PE 0204202N. This is the budget justification's own description of work that has not happened yet — the one thing no other level of the budget carries.
- Continue maintenance and readiness between ship delivery at the end of the Build Yard Modernization Period (BYMP) and Joint Flight Campaign (JFC-6) test shot from Zumwalt. Planned activities to maintain readiness consist of stage testing, alignment testing, grooming, repairs and shakedown. - LYNDON B JOHNSON (LBJ) CPS weapon control system installation - Provide TSCE support for Shakedown in preparation for JFC-6 events to include data analysis and test reporting. -Report, and support Weapon System Explosives Safety Review Board (WSESRB) for installation authorization of CPS elements (certification event) during the DDG 1002 Mission Systems Activation (MSA) Period. - Continue to operate and support two ZUMWALT TSCE virtual twins for use by the Conventional Prompt Strike Program to support CPS Weapon System end-to-end, land-based, developmental integration testing. - Continue to provide TSCE support for T&E and Integration activity, including data analysis and test reporting. - Deliver TSCE R10.01 software in support of CPS on DDG 1001. - Planning for combat system modernization for class
Decrease for FY26 to FY27 is due to completion of CPS development efforts at BIW and associated Program Support Services.
FY2026: the year under way
Prior-year accomplishments and current-year plans from the same exhibit. Context for the FY2027 plan, not a series — an activity partitions its project exactly in the request year, but can under-cover it in earlier years.
Specific planned design and prototyping efforts include: - Complete development of CPS weapon system ship installation drawings, including delivery of drawings for DDG 1001. - Complete development and deliver qualified ZUMWALT CPS WCS Hardware Kit for installation and integration on DDG 1002. - Release the CPS Installation Authorization Package for the Installation Readiness Review on DDG 1002, deliver Certification Data Report, and support Weapon System Explosives Safety Review Board (WSESRB) for installation authorization of CPS elements (certification event) during the DDG 1002 Mission Systems Activation (MSA) Period. - Maintain material condition and readiness between ship delivery at the end of the Build Yard Modernization Period (BYMP) and Joint Flight Campaign (JFC-6) test shot from Zumwalt. Planned activities to maintain readiness consist of stage testing, alignment testing, grooming, repairs and shakedown. - Commence LYNDON B JOHNSON (LBJ) CPS MSA integration and testing. - Continue to operate and support two ZUMWALT TSCE virtual twins for use by the Conventional Prompt Strike Program to support CPS Weapon System end-to-end, land-based, developmental integration testing. - Continue to build and deliver TSCE hardware modifications kit to support CPS integration on DDG 1002. - Continue support of non-recurring engineering for Combat System development and integration and evaluation of IWS enterprise Integrated Combat System (ICS) in the TSCE virtualized environment. - Continue to provide TSCE support for T&E and Integration activity, including data analysis and test reporting. - Deliver TSCE R10.0 software in support of CPS on DDG 1002. - Continue support of CPS WCS Stage IV, V, and VI testing (end-to-end) onboard DDG 1002. - Provide TSCE support for Shakedown in preparation for JFC-6 events to include data analysis and test reporting. - Planning for combat system modernization for class
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 180.7 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 51.8 |
| FY2027 | Request | 44.9 |
This activity is 89% of project 2464's FY2027 request and 89% of PE 0204202N's. In the request year the activities under a project sum to it exactly; in the current year they under-cover it in about 9% of cases, so an activity's delta can legitimately exceed its parent's and the two must not be compared row to row.

Every R-2A line of this project, largest FY2027 request first. Linked where the activity has enough of its own narrative to carry a page; the rest are shown in full on the program-element page.
