What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 651030 of PE 0604201F. This is the budget justification's own description of work that has not happened yet — the one thing no other level of the budget carries.
Contracting activities for Software Pathway (SWP) development contract option. Additional plans include but are not limited to special studies on developing integrated Assured Positioning, Navigation and Timing System and Multi-Global Navigation Satellite System (M-GNSS) receivers, complete security certification, formal MSI Functional Qualification Test, and Functional Configuration Audit/Physical Configuration Audit, technical analysis, experimentation, risk reduction and prototyping activities, MGUE Test Program PA, Cooperative RDT&E PA, added Satellite Signal Usage for Resilient Equipment (ASSURE) PA, and development and testing of Military Underwater Navigation System-M-Code (MUNS-M).
Funding increased due to initiation of contracting activities for Software Pathway (SWP) development contract.
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 0.0 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 0.0 |
| FY2027 | Request | 101.9 |
This activity is 14% of project 651030's FY2027 request and 14% of PE 0604201F's. In the request year the activities under a project sum to it exactly; in the current year they under-cover it in about 9% of cases, so an activity's delta can legitimately exceed its parent's and the two must not be compared row to row.

Every R-2A line of this project, largest FY2027 request first. Linked where the activity has enough of its own narrative to carry a page; the rest are shown in full on the program-element page.
