Advanced Innovative Technologies
The Strategic Capabilities Office (SCO) develops, demonstrates, and transitions operationally impactful capabilities and effects to shape and counter emerging threats and increase the lethality of the Joint Force in contested environments. The SCO combines innovation with concepts of operation and information management to develop novel capabilities solving critical national security challenges in partnership with the Services, Defense Agencies, Combatant Commands (CCMDS), Joint Chiefs of Staff, Intelligence Community, and the Office of the Secretary of War (OSW). SCO's FY 2026 Pacific Deterrence Initiative (PDI) spending under Exercises, Training, Experimentation, and Innovation includes $639.296 million discretionary and $167.000 million mandatory for a total of $806.296, an increase of $150.786 million from FY 2025, with five new capability projects transitioning into Execution in FY 2026.
These funds provide for SCO labor and travel to support the ~40 project teams that will be active in FY 2027.
