This activity requests $80.6M in FY2027, 18% of project HX2, down 41% on FY2026. The R-2A exhibit describes it across FY2025–FY2027, including what the FY2027 money is planned to buy.

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.

FY2027 planned work

FY 2027 supports further analysis and assessments for development and demonstration of LRHW system components and training. Continues logistics analysis required for material release and sustainment. Supports continued integration of TIs.

FY2026 to FY2027 change

FY 2027 funding decrease due to a lower requirement in TI-22M engineering support and programmatic support required in FY 2027.

Before the request year

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.

FY2026 plans — current year

FY 2026 supports further analysis and assessments for development and demonstration of LRHW system components and training. Continues logistics analysis required for material release and sustainment. Supports continued integration of TIs, specifically TI-22M in FY26.

FY2025 accomplishments

FY 2025 supports further analysis and assessments for development and demonstration of LRHW system components and training. Continues logistics analysis required for material release and sustainment and supports continued integration of TIs.

Money

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.

This activity is 18% of project HX2's FY2027 request and 18% 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.

Where this sits

5 activities in project HX2

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.
