What project DO5 buys
Directed Energy Enhancements will increase DE system performance and further subsystem upgrades to address counter-rockets, artillery, and mortar (C-RAM) and counter rotary wing (RW) threats. Additionally, enhancements will assess size, weight and power (SWaP) to allow integration onto smaller and lighter tactical platforms. The Army is pursuing a Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA) Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) instance architecture through the current prototyping effort for Enduring High Energy Laser (E-HEL) via multiple prototype Other Transaction Authorities (OTA) enabling Government defined capability improvements within the MOSA architecture.

Project DO5 funding, FY2027–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) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2027 | Request | 94.8 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 49.0 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 30.2 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 27.5 |
| FY2031 | Outyear | 11.3 |
1 accomplishment / planned program
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 Starting in FY 2027, PAE Fires will award multiple OTAs for prototype enhancements meeting MOSA Architecture. PAE Fires will request and evaluate vendor whitepapers for potential enhancements to reduce Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) on sub-systems enabling the system to be transitioned to a smaller vehicle such as the Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV) and to increase performance to achieve additional required capabilities.
FY2026 to FY2027 change The increase in FY 2027 is due to the initiation of DE Enhancements.
Named performers on project DO5
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.
