What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 3348 of PE 0604272N. 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.
Completion of OT. Deliver LRIP units to support production line ramp up. Support fielding plan for DAIRCM system. Achieve permission to enter into FRP. Correct deficiencies found during test and integration. Continue development efforts for threat pacing capability improvements.
$0.587M for DAIRCM Primary Hardware Development to provide capability enhancements required for continued mission effectiveness.
FY2026: the year under way
Prior-year accomplishments and current-year plans from the same exhibit. Context for the FY2027 plan, not a series — an activity partitions its project exactly in the request year, but can under-cover it in earlier years.
Achieve MS-C and permission to enter LRIP. Deliver PRM. Complete IOT&E and LFT&E. Conduct Operation Test Readiness Review (OTRR) and OT.
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 41.4 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 14.4 |
| FY2027 | Request | 15.0 |
This activity is 100% of project 3348's FY2027 request and 100% of PE 0604272N'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.
