What project 1447 buys
AEGIS Development Support is the foundation that maintains the Research and Development Land Based Test Facilities, Technical Design Agent (TDA), Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) hardware engineering, and Program Management services required to support the development and integration efforts required to effectively design, test and certify, Combat System computer programs. Starting in FY26, this line includes the Combat System Test Bed (CSTB) efforts, which support model development designed to reduce testing requirements. AEGIS BL 9.2.2 delivered in FY21 to TI-12 hardware ships, integrated previous CSL capabilities plus Surface Electronic Warfare Improvement Program (SEWIP) BLK 2 integration (auto association); MH-60R integration; Advanced Training Doman; Boundary Defense Capability; Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) mission planner; Above Water Sensor Coordinator; Agile Moondog, Sirocco, Sundog part 1, Silent Squall part 1, and Vortex; Advanced Calibration Experiment; Cyber enhancements (cyber resource services, boundary proxy service, Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), network device integrity, update manager); and BMD 5.1.3.1 (MDA-developed). BL 9.2.2 delivered the previously listed capabilities plus warfighting improvements derived from operations in the Red Sea to remaining TI-12H ships in FY24. BL 9.2.2 will deliver previously listed capabilities with further threat-based modernization improvements derived from Red Sea operations to TI-12H ships in FY25. (Effort Completes in FY25) AEGIS Capability Package (CP) 2022, delivered in FY23, builds upon previous CSL capabilities, integrating Multi Mission Signal Processor (MMSP)-Restoration (AMOD DDG only); AEGIS Linear Processing System (ALPS); High-Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-Dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS); SM-2 Blk IIIC initial capability; Agile Firestorm; Mk 38 Mod 4 Engineering Operational Sequencing System (EOSS) integration; and BMD 5.1.4 (MDA-developed) capabilities. CP 2022-2 delivered to DDG 91 to support its modernization test program in FY24. Dependent on SEWIP BLK 3 Integration effort. CP 2022-2 was delivered to DDG 91 to support its modernization test program in FY24. Dependent on SEWIP BLK 3 Integration effort.

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. 4 of them describe FY2027 work in enough detail to have their own page; the rest are shown here in full. Coverage is partial across the corpus, so count activities, never total them.

Named performers on project 1447
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.
