What project 2221 buys
This exhibit has been updated to reflect the establishment of the Navy Analytic Office (NAO), which is responsible for the executive oversight of Navy studies and analysis. The NAO was stood up to better align the annual Analytic Agenda to Chief Naval Operation's (CNO) strategic priorities while also providing for study of the more tactical requirements of the Fleet and Navy writ large. The outcome will be synchronized modeling, simulation, assessments, wargames, experiments and exercises providing rich, shared data to support and refine warfighting concepts and to inform budget decisions. The Navy Annual Studies Program supports the Analytic Agenda by providing both the development and use of modeling, simulation and analytically-based warfare, business analyses and analytic tools that provide the basis for decision making with respect to concepts of operations (CONOPS), Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Systems; warfare systems, and analytical underpinnings/basis for programmatic decisions of the Navy's top leadership regarding their architectures, force structure, and the Navy's core "organize, train, and equip mission" (the warfare and provider Enterprises). The program provides capability-based planning assessment for Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS), conducts analysis to affect warfighting capability trades and enterprise resources, identifies needs, gaps and overlaps, and assesses alternative solutions to Joint needs. The program provides overarching Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution System (PPBES) analyses and guidance for PPBES which provides gap analysis and investment strategy and total obligation authority allocation. It provides independent capability analysis and assists in structuring follow-on Navy analyses. The program coordinates Navy's position for the enhanced planning process and conducts net assessments. It serves as the lead campaign analysis to approve Navy warfare and support requirements. The program supports the Maritime Strategy which charts a course for the Navy, Coast Guard and Marine Corps to work collectively with each other and international partners to prevent crises from occurring, or reacting quickly should one occur to avoid negative impact to the United States.
Project 2221 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.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 26.4 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 25.4 |
| FY2027 | Request | 24.6 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 30.9 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 29.3 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 27.7 |
| FY2031 | Outyear | 28.2 |

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. 1 of them 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.
- Continue to develop, update and maintain detailed level Navy Standard scenarios based on Defense Planning Guidance, alternative scenarios in support of Defense Review guidance, Joint studies, Navy resource analyses, analytic baselines for the Major combat operation, execute analysis of designated Defense Planning Scenarios and their…
Read the FY2027 plan →FY2027 planned work CBA such as advanced Naval Warfare fires and Naval aviation integrated analysis to identify future capability requirements. Develop metrics to describe the effectiveness of solutions,and evaluate current and programmed systems ability to meet capability requirements to determine capability gaps. Expand warfighting gap assessments addressing interaction of mission area kill chain platforms, sensors, and weapons in a system-of-system construct. This analysis supports the Warfighting Integration Navigation Plan Implementation Framework (WIN), aligned under Fleet Integration and Interoperability, and provides mission area assessments and Joint Multi Cross Domain kill chain gaps and solution…
FY2026 to FY2027 change Decrease from FY 2026 to FY 2027 reflects a reduction in support of mission area assessments.
