What project 112 buys
Hypersonic development remains a top priority for the Department. The Multi-Service Advanced Capability for Hypersonics Test Bed (MACH-TB) accelerates delivery of advanced hypersonic and strategic capabilities to the warfighter by leveraging commercial space launch and non-traditional test beds to provide the Department, other Federal agencies, industry, and academia the capability to affordably and rapidly conduct hypersonic experiments and test hypersonic system components.
Project 112 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.

|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 0.0 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 537.6 |
| FY2027 | Request | 1,124.2 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 1,224.4 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 1,308.0 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 1,410.5 |

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.
In FY 2027, MACH-TB will continue to accelerate the cadence of flight tests supporting hypersonic experimentation and hypersonic system component testing. Highlights include: - Continue challenge-based acquisition, Multi-Service Advanced Capability Hypersonic Accelerator (MACH-XL), to test and demonstrate affordable hypersonic systems…
