What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 3418 of PE 0604610N. 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.
- Continue MOD 2 POM INC 1 AUR Rapid Prototyping. - Continue MOD 2 APB-6 operational software development. - Continue performance Modeling & Simulation and EC WAF modeling and simulation accreditation efforts. - Continue All Up Round and Platform Integration. - Continue Land Based Testing and begin Engineering and Set-to-Hit (STH) In-Water Testing. - Complete Fuel Tank/AB, Subsystem Delta, and All Up Round Critical Design Reviews.
The overall decrease of $(9.801) million from FY 2026 ($88.179 million mandatory) to FY 2027 ($78.378 million) due to decrease of requirement on the POM contract.
FY2026: the year under way
Prior-year accomplishments and current-year plans from the same exhibit. Context for the FY2027 plan, not a series — an activity partitions its project exactly in the request year, but can under-cover it in earlier years.
- Definitize MOD 2 POM INC 1 AUR Rapid Prototyping contract, which was awarded to industry Prime in Q4FY25. - Continue MOD 2 APB operational software development. - Continue performance Modeling & Simulation and EC WAF modeling and simulation accreditation efforts. - Continue system test bed development. - Complete integration of MOD 2 POD hardware (G&C, FES, WH) with the new INC 1 Fuel Tank with Adapter section and legacy
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 78.9 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 0.0 |
| FY2027 | Request | 78.4 |
This activity is 100% of project 3418's FY2027 request and 77% of PE 0604610N'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.
