What project EY8 buys

This funding line is directly aligned to the Army Air and Missile Defense Modernization Priority. The IFPC Increment 2 (Inc 2) - Block 2 (IFPC 2nd Interceptor program) supports the Air and Missile Defense modernization priorities. The IFPC 2nd Interceptor will provide increased capability against advanced threats, to include in priority order, supersonic cruise missiles, groups 2 and 3 Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) at extended ranges and Large Caliber Rockets (LCR). IFPC 2nd Interceptor retains capability against subsonic cruise missiles and fixed and rotary wing aircraft. The IFPC 2nd Interceptor consists of an All Up Round-Magazine (AUR-M) with interceptors integrated onto the IFPC Inc 2 launcher and with the Army Integrated Air and Missile Defense (AIAMD) open systems architecture, IAMD Battle Command System (IBCS), and the Sentinel sensor. In FY 2027, funding will be used to support the prototype hardware development, integration, and demonstration of the IFPC 2nd Interceptor capability with up to two vendors.

Project EY8 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 EY8

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.
