What project 613003 buys
Basic research in the Mathematics, Information Sciences, and Life Sciences Project seeks to expand fundamental knowledge and enable revolutionary advances and supporting technologies critical to the future of the Department of the Air Force. Major areas being investigated in this project are data fusion, machine learning and artificial intelligence, information and complex networks, cyber-security, autonomous decision making, dynamical systems, optimization and control, and natural materials and systems. While the following are specific sub-areas within this Project, there is a continuing interest to explore novel ideas to bridge disciplines within 0601102F, Defense Research Sciences.
Project 613003 funding, FY2025–FY2031
Prior years are actuals, the budget year is the request, and the outyears are the FYDP plan. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure. Projects carry the full five-year plan; the activities inside them stop at the budget year.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 98.9 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 95.4 |
| FY2027 | Request | 96.9 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 102.1 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 108.4 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 112.3 |
| FY2031 | Outyear | 114.7 |

The R-2A exhibit — the only level of the budget that describes work that has not happened yet. Activities carry the prior, current and budget year only, no five-year plan. Each describe FY2027 work in enough detail to have their own page; the rest are shown here in full. Coverage is partial across the corpus, so count activities, never total them.
