What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project ET3 of PE 0603384BP. 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.
Continue enhanced capability to more rapidly characterize and develop medical countermeasures against, emerging chemical and biological threats through investment in high throughput technologies. Continue development of challenges advancing concept and technology development.
Increase supports expanded activities to strengthen industry collaboration, support adaptive acquisition and expand concept and technology development activities aligned to priority threats.
FY2025–FY2026: what came before
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.
Continue enhanced capability to more rapidly characterize, and the development of medical countermeasures against, emerging chemical and biological threats through investment in high throughput technologies. Continue development of challenges advancing concept and technology development.
Continued to enhance and rapidly develop capabilities against emerging chemical and biological threats through investment in high throughput technologies. Continued development of challenges advancing concept and technology development.
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 | 12.5 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 9.0 |
| FY2027 | Request | 11.0 |
This activity is 100% of project ET3's FY2027 request and 3.5% of PE 0603384BP'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.

Every R-2A line of this project, largest FY2027 request first. Linked where the activity has enough of its own narrative to carry a page; the rest are shown in full on the project page.
