Project 0304 — Technology Maturation and Transition requests $25.4M in FY2027, 79% of the $32.3M requested for program element 0603382N — a new start, with no prior-year and no current-year money. 1 R-2A activity decomposes the request, 1 new this cycle. TDT is the largest named R-3 performer at $0.4M, 1.5% of the project's FY2027 R-3 total.

New start

This project requests $25.4M in FY2027 with no prior-year and no current-year funding. There is no incumbent line to compare it with — it did not exist before this President's Budget.

What project 0304 buys

Technology Maturation and Transition: Funds vetted and endorsed experimentation, demonstration and prototyping of technologies and capabilities based on projects curated from initiatives throughout the joint and USN innovation portfolio. Projects align with National Defense Strategy (NDS), Chief of Naval Operations and Fleet priorities and receive USN endorsement based on a rigorous vetting process and the closure of critical capability gaps. Projects are cross-domain and accelerate integration of high priority technologies to enable transition into Programs of Record and support warfighter needs.

Project 0304 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.

Inside the project

1 accomplishment / planned program

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 describes FY2027 work in enough detail to have its own page; the rest are shown here in full. Coverage is partial across the corpus, so count activities, never total them.

Named performers on project 0304

Performers named in the R-3 exhibit under this project. Share is of the project's whole FY2027 R-3 total — the same denominator the program-element split uses, so the two read on one scale and will not sum to 100% when unnamed or government work is in the mix. Budget-justification contract funding, not obligations.
