What project 0954 buys

EW Rapid Capability Insertion Process (RCIP) identifies system and mission capability gaps by analyzing EW baseline and fleet requirements, prioritizes those gaps based on fleet input and critical technology maturity, and develops upgrades to the AN/SLQ-32(V) product line to address those gaps. RCIP also integrates Future Naval Capability (FNC) programs into SEWIP. The Surface Electronic Warfare Improvement Program (SEWIP) provides incremental upgrades to the AN/SLQ-32 and consists of Blocks 1A, 1B, 2, and 3, the Soft Kill Coordination System (SKCS), SEWIP Lite, and Scaled Onboard Electronic Attack (SOEA). The FY27 budget request supports continued development, test, and integration of SKCS with AEGIS Baseline (BL) 9 and BL 10, continues RCIP #8 to improve anti-ship missile defense capability of SLQ-32(V)6/7 when operating with other netted EW sensors and effectors, continues RCIP #6 efforts to implement Built In Test, and Signal Processing and continues RCIP #10, #11,#12, and #13 Measurement Based Adaptive Response, the Electronic Warfare (EW) Planning Aid, the Tactical Simulator (TACSIM) Technology Refresh, and MK-59, SLQ-32(V)6 and (V)7 Integration.

Funding trajectory

Project 0954 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.

Inside the project

1 accomplishment / planned program

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.

Named performers on project 0954

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.
