## What project 675029 buys

Strategic Mission Planning and Execution System (SMPES) will be the U.S. Air Force (USAF) and U.S. strategic nuclear forces' principal nuclear planning and analysis tool for accessing consequence analysis information and strategic deterrence. SMPES consolidates the following six independently managed programs into one system: 1) Mission Planning and Analysis System (MPAS); 2) Global Adaptive Planning Collaborative Information Environment (GAP-CIE); 3) Decision Support Service (DSS) - Nuclear Command and Control (NC2) Conference Module; 4) Nuclear Planning and Execution System Recapitalization (NPES Recap); 5) Force Status Readiness (FSR); and 6) Force Survivability Analysis and Management (FSAM). This program element included all necessary expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605833F, and 0605898F.

**R-3 lines of work:** Product Development; Support; Test and Evaluation; Management Services.

## What is NOT on this page

Congressional marks, the R-2 mission description and acquisition strategy, the industry vs government split of the whole request, and related program elements are recorded at **program-element** grain — an NDAA mark lands on a PE, never on a project.
