What project MD22 buys
The MDIOC sustains and operates a mission complex for research, development, testing, training, and operations for Missile Defense System activities 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The MDIOC supports the Ground-based Midcourse Defense Mission Control Center Facility, as well as the Command, Control, Battle Management, and Communications (C2BMC) Integration and Test Centers and the C2BMC Experimentation Laboratories. It provides infrastructure support for the Space Sensors Missile Defense Space Center and the Targets and Countermeasures Mission Control Center - Targets. The MDIOC also provides developmental support to the Enterprise Sensors Laboratory composed of a common satellite ground station and sensor netting test bed for designated Missile Defense System elements. The MDIOC supports Missile Defense System test events based on the Integrated Master Test Plan. It supports Missile Defense System Critical Engagement Conditions testing and analysis through the operation of the Test Execution Control node for distributed Missile Defense System ground tests. During system flight tests, the MDIOC provides infrastructure (power; Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning; and communications) support to the Flight Test Director and crew, and ensures the protection of facility and test assets throughout the test window. Further, the MDIOC provides the facilities that support operations of the Missile Defense Element, manned by the U.S. Army 100th Missile Defense Brigade, the United States Northern Command, C2BMC Command and Control Center, and the United States Space Command's (USSPACECOM's) Joint Functional Component Command for Integrated Missile Defense. In addition, the MDIOC supports the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Operations Support Center, which provides situational awareness on the health and status of the end-to-end Missile Defense System. The MDIOC hosts Missile Defense System wargames and exercises in support of the warfighter, and delivers the requisite infrastructure to integrate the modeling and simulation assets that form system-level constructive simulations for full-envelope Missile Defense System performance assessments, with surrogate capability for Missile Defense System ground tests.

Project MD22 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.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 50.8 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 48.9 |
| FY2027 | Request | 55.0 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 57.0 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 60.7 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 58.5 |
| FY2031 | Outyear | 59.3 |

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.

FY2027 planned work - Replace end-of-life mission-critical infrastructure components to reduce operational risk to MDIOC operations supporting Missile Defense System operations and test. These components include main transformers, Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), AHUs, Computer Room Air Conditioners (CRACs), and Fire Suppression System components.
FY2026 to FY2027 change - Increase from FY 2026 to FY 2027 provides for the replacement of mission essential infrastructure components that are at end of life. These components include main transformers, UPS, AHUs, CRACs, and Fire Suppression System components. AHU and other mission essential replacement activities lessen the risk to MDIOC operations, which support Missile Defense System operations and test.
FY2026 plans — current year - Replace four AHUs and create designs for future AHU replacements allowing the MDIOC to mitigate risk to operations in the event of an air quality and air flow failure.

Named performers on project MD22
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.
