## Summary

This activity requests $15.1M in FY2027, 11% of project 2966, down 23% on FY2026. The R-2A exhibit describes it across FY2026–FY2027, including what the FY2027 money is planned to buy.

## What the FY2027 request buys

**FY2027 planned work.** Complete the Precision Fire Control INP by: - Integrating the Data Link Assisted Navigation (DLAN) Multi-Function Data Link (MFDL) fire control element. - Procuring 12 Low-Cost Terminal Defense Missiles (LCTDM) and 4 Hypervelocity Projectiles (HVP) flight test units and test targets. - Conducting interceptor guidance testing with Data Link Assisted Navigation (DLAN), Low-Cost Terminal Defense Missiles (LCTDMs), and Hypervelocity Projectiles (HVPs).

**FY2026 to FY2027 change.** The decrease in funding from FY 2026 to FY 2027 in Precision Fire Control (PFC) is due to completion of integrating Multi-Function Data Link (MFDL) fire control element and the PFC final demonstration against surrogate threats.

## Before the request year

**FY2026 plans — current year.** Continue the PFC INP by working the following tasks: - Integration of multi-function data link (MFDL) 2 fire control element. - Procurement of 5 Hypervelocity Projectiles (HVP) and 20 Low-Cost Terminal Defense Missiles (LCTDM) flight test units and test targets. - Interceptor guidance testing with HVP and LCTDM. - Combat systems integration studies. - Complete combat systems integration studies. - Complete design and prototyping of Precision Fire-Control (PFC) Increment 2 fire control elements.
