What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 3334 of PE 0605518N. 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.
- Continued supporting and refining early maintenance concepts, storage methodologies, loading and handling processes, transportation studies, supply chain modeling, and training development necessary for rapid fielding of the CPS WS. -Continue the development of Technical Documentation for the CPS WS consisting of all organizational operational and maintenance procedures. - Continue Core Logistics Capabilities and Depot Source of Repair assessments of the initial Repair and Return Depot capability in support of the rapid fielding of CPS AUR+Cs on ZUMWALT class destroyers. The analysis will determine the process and depots that are necessary to maintain and repair the WS. - Continue development of the Naval Training Systems Plan (NTSP) prototype to define requirements and resources for the organic Navy Training required to support the CPS WS. - Continue development of the Front End Analysis (FEA) to determine training requirements in alignment with the CPS WS program mission. - Complete systems engineering and logistics support planning for JFC-6 flight test. Initiate systems engineering and logistics support planning for JFC-8 test event series. - Complete the development of the initial and interim training requirements for the crew of ZUMWALT and support personnel to support rapid fielding. - Complete the development and determination of individual training requirements and standards for initial deployment of CPS. - Complete a Business Case Analysis (BCA) to support the long-term Product Support Strategy for the CPS WS consisting of all Reliability, Maintainability, and Availability metric support. - Update the CPS WS Product Support Strategy in support of the program's requirement to be sustained after fielding. - Commence development of a Product Support plan to include technical documentation, training, transportation, supply support, maintenance and support equipment to sustain a maritime variant of BELS.
The FY 2026 to FY 2027 increase of $1.446M is due improvements for pier crane capacity to support fielding on VIRGINIA class submarines.
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.
- Completed the prototype development and test evaluation of five Shipping and Storage Containers (SSCs) and continue the design and development of the Multi-Mission Trailer (MMT) to validate its effectiveness for transportation of the AUR+C and Solid Rocket Motors (SRM). - Continued supporting and refining early maintenance concepts, storage methodologies, loading and handling processes, transportation studies, supply chain modeling, and training development necessary for rapid fielding of the CPS WS. -Continued the development of Technical Documentation for the CPS WS consisting of all organizational operational and maintenance procedures. - Continued experimental assessments of the initial Repair and Return Depot capability in support of the rapid fielding of CPS AUR+Cs on ZUMWALT class destroyers. - Continued systems engineering and logistics support planning for JFC-5 flight test. Initiated systems engineering and logistics support planning for JFC-6 test event series. - Conducted analysis to determine the Core Logistics Capabilities that are required for the initial sustainment of the CPS WS rapid fielding. The analysis determined the process and depots that are necessary to maintain and repair the WS. - Conducted Core Logistics Analysis and Depot Source of Repair. - Developed and updated the initial and interim training requirements for the crew of ZUMWALT and support personnel to support rapid fielding. - Developed and determined individual training requirements and standards for initial deployment of CPS. - Developed the Naval Training Systems Plan (NTSP) prototype to define requirements and resources for the organic Navy Training required to support the CPS WS.
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 | 21.3 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 23.9 |
| FY2027 | Request | 25.3 |
This activity is 1.9% of project 3334's FY2027 request and 1.9% of PE 0605518N'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.
