What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 670001 of PE 0207247F. 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.
- Will continue to rapidly prototype projects and focus warfighter support and resource allocation based on AF TENCAP mission/investment areas - Will continue to rapidly prototype projects and focus warfighter support and resource allocation based on AF TENCAP's focused efforts to increase Battlespace Awareness and Command and Control; support to Special Operations Forces and Advanced Capabilities; support to Space; and support to ISR and Combat Applications to meet Air Force and Joint Warfighter requirements
Funding increased to fund additional rapid prototype projects and focus warfighter support and resource allocation based on AF TENCAP mission/investment areas
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.

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 | 24.1 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 25.8 |
| FY2027 | Request | 31.2 |
This activity is 61% of project 670001's FY2027 request and 61% of PE 0207247F'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.
