What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project 3240 of PE 0607658N. 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.
Continue CEC system hardware and software integration efforts. As incremental CEC Increment 2 software capabilities and system signal data processor and antenna technologies evolve, conduct the necessary integration efforts to meet requirements in the CEC Increment 2 CDD.
Increase is due to end of CEC BLK II efforts and transition from CEC BLK II to BLK III efforts. Continued CEC software development and integration with modernized CEC system hardware is required to support increased CEC Increment II capabilities outlined in the CEC Increment II CDD as well as continued system hardware production and sustainment. This includes integration and testing of CEC BLK II and BLK III software with Engineering Development Models (EDM) for the CEC Signal Data Processor (SDP)-008 and Planar Array Antenna Assembly (PAAA)-Advanced.
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.

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 | 0.0 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 10.1 |
| FY2027 | Request | 15.0 |
This activity is 24% of project 3240's FY2027 request and 12% of PE 0607658N'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 project page.
