What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project HX2 of PE 0605232A. 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.
FY 2027 AUR+C funding continues incremental funding for and delivery of AUR+C tactical rounds. Continues incremental funding for and delivers JFC test/training/certification rounds. Continues prime contractor support of overall system integration of Technology Insertions (TIs) and testing. Provides for development and implementation of improved capabilities into the AUR+C and flight software to include M-Code and improved navigation for greater survivability.
FY 2027 funding increase due to an increased requirement for AUR+Cs in FY2027, including initiation of funding for two additional test rounds.
FY2025–FY2026: what came before
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.
FY 2026 AUR+C funding continues incremental funding for and delivery of AUR+C tactical rounds. Continues incremental funding for and delivers JFC test/training/certification rounds.
FY 2025 AUR+C funding delivers AUR+C Inert Training canisters. Continues incremental funding for and begins delivery of AUR+C basic load tactical rounds. Continues incremental funding for tactical reload rounds. Continues incremental funding for and begins delivery of Joint Flight Campaign (JFC) test/training/certification rounds. Provides for prime contractor support of test planning and execution. Continues incremental funding for spare AUR+C components, subsystems and assemblies in support of the LRHW Life Cycle Sustainment program
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 | 241.9 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 152.7 |
| FY2027 | Request | 237.7 |
This activity is 53% of project HX2's FY2027 request and 53% of PE 0605232A'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 program-element page.
