What project 3301 buys
Improved Capabilities for SPY-1 Radar: These Reliability, Maintainability, and Availability (RM&A) improvements and solid state technology insertions are intended to reduce cascading failures, mitigate obsolescence issues, and improve reliability in support of Anti-Air Warfare (AAW) and Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) missions while still providing AN/ SPY-1 Radar Total Ownership Cost Reductions. Improvements, such as Solid State Insertion to address Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS), will yield reductions in annual fleet maintenance costs and is a top fleet requirement as part of the AEGIS Wholeness initiative. In addition to RM&A improvements, warfighting improvements funded in this line includes the following: Transmitter Noise Cancellation (TNC) development includes hardware/software to counter low radar cross section, low altitude threats. The Ship-Based Non-Cooperative Target Recognition (SBNCTR) program Phase 2A will develop algorithms to provide classification for targets. Advanced Calibration Experiment (ACE) Phase 2 is being incorporated into Baseline 9. Elevated Radar Advanced Calibration Experiment (ERACE) Backfits and Phase 3 will incorporate into Baseline 9. Electronic Attack (EA) and Rapid Radar Capability Improvement Program (R2CIP) develop solutions for evolving EA threats. The development of MMSP provides simultaneous Anti-Air Warfare (AAW)/Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) multi-mission capability for DDG 51 class ships as part of the Aegis Modernization Program. This capability is utilized for DDG 113 and follow new construction and Aegis Ashore. Modifies SPY-1D transmitters to enable dual beam for reduced frame times and better reaction times, provides stability for all D(V) waveforms, and avoids operational degradation. The SPY-1 radar system detects, tracks, and supports engagements of a broader range of threats. MMSP improves performance in littoral, ducted clutter, electronic attack (EA), and chaff environments and provides greater commonality in computer programs and equipment. This effort also provides for the development of MMSP-Restoration (MMSP-R) to support system security requirements on Destroyers Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) refresh and MMSP/MMSP-R technology refresh.

Project 3301 funding, FY2025–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) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 16.7 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 13.9 |
| FY2027 | Request | 22.2 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 31.4 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 30.7 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 29.9 |
| FY2031 | Outyear | 30.6 |

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. Each describes FY2027 work in enough detail to have its own page; the rest are shown here in full. Coverage is partial across the corpus, so count activities, never total them.
- Continue ACE Phase 2 development and complete demo - Continue SBNCTR Phase 2A development to include integration of other sensors, and complete Integration and Test - Continue TNC Phase 1/2 development - Continue EA improvements technology development - Continue Radar Improvements Analysis - Continue ERACE Backfits - Continue ERACE…

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.
