What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 675180 of PE 0304260F. 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 Deliver 9/3 capabilities for Baseline 15/16, continue 4 efforts for Baseline 16 and begin 4 new efforts for baseline 16. -Will continue SIGINT development efforts for the RC-135 fleet to include new signal sets and upgrades to current capabilities. See PE 0305207F for classified details. Classified requirements POC is HAF AF/A2OO (704) 614-7317.
Funding decreased due to a database error. $17.116M will be realigned from Common Development [675183] for a total of $45.737M. Once corrected, funding increased due to increased Air Force development in Counter-Long Range Kill Chain initiatives. Additional details available at a higher classification.
FY2026: the year under way
Prior-year accomplishments and current-year plans from the same exhibit. Context for the FY2027 plan, not a series — an activity partitions its project exactly in the request year, but can under-cover it in earlier years.
- Deliver 6 capabilities for Baseline 15, continue 14 efforts for Baseline 15 and begin 2 new efforts for baseline 16. -Continue SIGINT development efforts for the RC-135 fleet to include new signal sets and upgrades to current capabilities. See PE 0305207F for classified details. Classified requirements POC is HAF AF/A2OO (704) 614-7317.
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 41.9 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 41.9 |
| FY2027 | Request | 28.6 |
This activity is 100% of project 675180's FY2027 request and 29% of PE 0304260F'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.
