What project 666157 buys
Development Planning (DP) funds activities to analyze the Force Design in support of the Capability Development Enterprise. DP conducts coordinated Mission Engineering and Analysis to identify and refine key capability trades, technology needs, and cost and schedule implications. Emphasis is placed on developing options that address force design gaps by analyzing multi-domain capabilities and evaluating Doctrine, Organization, Training, Materiel, Leadership and Education, Personnel, and Facilities-Planning (DOTMLPF-P) concepts. This analysis informs trade space of candidate concepts, ensuring required attributes are met. The outcome of this effort will be trade space attributes and mission engineering artifacts which will underpin Capability Development decisions. Program management support costs including, but not limited to, hardware, software, travel, contractor support services, civilian pay, supplies, facilities, and infrastructure. This program may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Requirements Analysis and Maturation capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605833F, 0605898F, and 0606398F.
Project 666157 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.

|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 13.7 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 29.0 |
| FY2027 | Request | 10.8 |
| FY2028 | Outyear | 11.1 |
| FY2029 | Outyear | 11.3 |
| FY2030 | Outyear | 11.5 |

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.
- Maintain current and future force design and threat in scenarios that are used for analysis - Conduct analysis aligned to demand signal, capability-based gap identification, and the scope of DOTMLPF-P in candidate design development to support acquisition decision development - Continue efforts prioritized based on force design…
