What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 2195 of PE 0604759N. 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.
- Complete replacement of prime movers at NAWCWD. - Continue the minor upgrade and modernization of test capabilities at NAWCAD, NAWCWD and PMRF. - Continue upgrades to telemetry collection and processing capabilities at NAWCWD. - Continue upgrades to telemetry collection and processing capabilities at PMRF. - Continue modernization of five radar systems at NAWCWD. - Continue instrumentation radar replacement at NAWCAD. - Continue large telemetry antenna modernization at PMRF. - Continue networked based telemetry upgrade at NAWCAD. - Continue optical tracking mount replacement at PMRF. - Initiate modernization of fiber infrastructure at NAWCWD South Range. - Initiate network upgrade at NAWCWD Sea Range - Initiate telemetry recorder upgrade at NAWCWD. - Initiate optical tracking mount procurement at NAWCWD. - Initiate optical tracking mount procurement at NAWCAD. - Initiate network modernization at NAWCWD. - Initiate spectrum monitoring equipment purchase at NAWCAD. - Initiate Networked telemetry fielding at NAWCAD. - Initiate V/UHF radio purchase at NAWCWD. - Initiate traveling wave tube purchase for multiple radars at NAWCWD. - Initiate and complete communication radio replacement at NAWCAD.
Funding increases from FY 2026 to FY 2027 due to the initiation of multiple projects.
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.
- Complete upgrade of the R2508 microwave radar relay system at NAWCWD. - Complete the development and integration of Telemetry equipment on the Range Support Aircraft. - Complete communication system upgrade on Mobile At Sea Sensor at PMRF. - Complete imaging radar transmitter replacement at PMRF. - Complete network upgrade on Mobile At Sea Sensor at PMRF. - Complete upgrade of telemetry data routing at PMRF. - Complete replacement of UHF and VHF radios at NAWCWD. - Complete modernization of multi-target instrumentation radar at NAWCAD. - Complete replacement of low speed time space position trackers at NAWCWD. - Complete modernization of fiber infrastructure at NAWCWD. - Continue the minor upgrade and modernization of test capabilities at NAWCAD, NAWCWD and PMRF. - Continue upgrades to telemetry collection and processing capabilities at NAWCWD. - Continue upgrades to telemetry collection and processing capabilities at PMRF. - Continue modernization of five radar systems at NAWCWD. - Continue replacement of prime movers at NAWCWD. - Initiate imaging radar radome replacement at PMRF. - Initiate instrumentation radar replacement at NAWCAD. - Initiate large telemetry antenna modernization at PMRF. - Initiate networked based telemetry upgrade at NAWCAD. - Initiate optical tracking mount replacement at PMRF.
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 | 43.3 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 31.7 |
| FY2027 | Request | 81.9 |
This activity is 73% of project 2195's FY2027 request and 73% of PE 0604759N'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 project page.
