### Project 907 — Tactical Exploitation Of National Capabilities

FY 2026 $9.800 million Congressional Add for Program increase - expeditionary command & control node in project 907. Details provided under separate cover. FY2027 funding enables systems engineering and collaborative development and prototyping on multiple National Intelligence Community (IC) Electronic Warfare (EW) advanced software and prototype developments that leverage upcoming National IC and DoW investments.

### Project BX9 — Tactical Intel Targeting Access Node Adv Develop

See classified quad chart for more information FY2027 funding enables the TENCAP program to provide Pre-Planned Program Improvements (P3I) engineering support to the Space Ground Station (SGS), and Space Ground Component Kits (SGCK)

### Project CC5 — Low Earth Orbit (LEO) / Intel Surv Recon (ISR)

See classified quad chart for more information FY2027 funding provides prototyping, experimentation, and risk reduction activities to All Domain sensors and effectors.

## Mission & acquisition strategy

Tactical Exploitation of National Capabilities (TENCAP) exploits national intelligence capabilities to pace evolving threats in support of operations during conflict and competition. TENCAP systems and technologies provide deep sensing to support commanders' situational understanding (patterns of life, threat intentions, etc.), indications & warnings (detection of enemy mobilization and hostile activity), and intelligence support to targeting (order of battle, electronic target folders, target detection, Battle Damage Assessment, etc.). TENCAP systems and technologies support Theater-level fires and effects.
