What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project CY97C1 of PE 0208097JCY. 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.
With $85.958M JCC2 will focus on the following initiatives to enhance its capabilities: • PCTE Mission Rehearsal Support (MR): Provide application support for PCTE Mission Rehearsals—primarily for OCO but also for DCO teams conducted on TS systems to ensure realistic mission space replication. JCC2 will focus on the following initiatives to enhance its capabilities: • CJADC2/JCO Interoperability: Support implementation of five JCC2–CJADC2 operational exchanges, improving interoperability in situational awareness, target data exchange, secure collaboration, and standardized reporting formats (MISREPs, MISSUMs, SITREPs, INTREPs, DISUMs, OPREPs). • Onboarding 10th Air Force: Develop infrastructure and interfaces to onboard 10th AF personnel into JCC2 R, expanding readiness visibility across the enterprise. • Mission Assurance Decision Support System (MADSS) Integration: Enable sharing and visualization of MRT C and ASI data from MADSS to JCO, improving operator awareness of critical outages and infrastructure dependencies. • Combat Power Dashboard: Integrate PSRT C data from JCC2-R into JCO to deliver a real time combat power dashboard for operational commanders.
The $0.125 million increase from FY 2026 to FY 2027 is attributed to normal inflationary adjustments required to sustain test and evaluation activities at current operational levels. This modest increase reflects routine cost growth in labor, services, and support contracts and does not represent a change in program scope or requirements.
FY2025–FY2026: what came before
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.
With $85.833M in funding JCC2 will focus on the following initiatives: • Enhanced Offensive Cyber Operations Planning: Integrate detailed targeting data from Joint Cyber Weapons and the Joint Common Access Program (JCAP) to semi automate path to target planning and capture usage metrics in near real time. • Proactive Threat Detection: Develop analytics driven tipping and queuing capabilities to reduce incident response time across the DoWIN and enable proactive cyber defense. • USSTRATCOM Alignment: Incorporate USSTRATCOM requirements into the JCC2 application suite to improve automation, synchronization, and support for integrated deterrence. • Advanced Data Sharing: Enable cross platform data sharing between Service Cyber Components’ big data platforms to improve metrics, mission planning, and reporting. • Training Integration: Develop JCC2 application training modules for hosting within the Persistent Cyber Training Environment, enhancing global force proficiency.
Funding supports the following activities: • Continue to develop application program interfaces for development and integration of data sources; develop a framework for expedient and flexible requirements gathering, processing, and capability delivery to address emerging USCYBERCOM requirements; continue to enhance automation for mapping/monitoring of Mission Relevant Terrain - Cyber (MRT-C) across all domains • Integrate Situational Awareness and Battle Management capabilities in support of the JCWA requirements construct, • Scale and deliver capability through an agile development model; consolidate Cyber Ops and Readiness applications into one tool to support operator ease of use and optimal data sharing for effective cyber mission planning; improve data sharing capabilities across the Cyber C2 portfolio in support of cyber tasking operational requirements • Enhance Cyber C2 initial training and field support capabilities to address increased application usage across the cyber mission forces.
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 | 96.9 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 85.8 |
| FY2027 | Request | 86.0 |
This activity is 100% of project CY97C1's FY2027 request and 100% of PE 0208097JCY'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.
