What project 1100 buys
Defense University Research Instrumentation Program (DURIP) funds are awarded to universities to purchase high- cost research instrumentation that is normally not provided for in single-investigator research grants. Individual grants may range from $50K to $3.0M. Proposals for DURIP awards are submitted to the Services (Army, Navy, Air Force, Space Force) in response to a public Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA). Proposals received by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) are reviewed and all valid proposals received are prioritized. The Office of the Secretary of War (OSW) reviews, selects and announces all Department of War (DoW) awardees. Universities awarded grants are required to purchase the instrumentation and take delivery before any billing occurs. DURIP awards provide one-year funding. The DURIP proposal and award cycle is required to be completed within one fiscal year.

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. Coverage is partial across the corpus, so count activities, never total them.
FY2026 to FY2027 change FY27 decrease of $16.189M due to reductions in DURIP investments for alignment to Navy strategic goals within the S&T portfolio for Naval prioritization of Future Naval Capabilities and Technology Candidates.
FY2026 plans — current year - Completed funding awards to support purchase or development of instrumentation to enhance ONR basic research efforts across the S&T spectrum, to include workforce development of students and postdoctoral fellows.
