What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project DJ6 of PE 0607865A. 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 program development through system level modeling, simulation, integration and test support to address emerging threats -Continue test program to include utilization of targets/threat simulators, flight simulator and modeling efforts to maintain effectiveness -Continue supporting Integrated Fires and current force PATRIOT integrated fires PAC-3 missile segment testing -Continue PATRIOT program M&S laboratory infrastructure maintenance as well as the conduct of M&S for hardware/software capability improvements -Continue U.S. Government and contractor support to ensure force effectiveness is maintained to keep pace with evolving and emerging threats -Continue system integration activities, test and analysis, and threat analysis and modeling -Continue development of PAC-3 Fire Control and LoE -Continue AMD Effectors Survivability efforts for enhanced electronic protection across lower tier effectors (interceptors, fire control and M903 launching stations) -Continue development of PAC-3 MSE and Fire Control Enhancements specific to GDS for use in developmental testing in the LTAMDS/IBCS configuration. -Continue support for Hardware in the Loop (HWIL): Millimeter-wave Simulation System - 1 (MSS-1), Millimeter-wave Simulation System - 2 (MSS-2), and PATRIOT Simulation (PATSIM)
Funding increase is due to acceleration of AMD Effectors Survivability efforts and increased Hardware in the Loop activity
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.
Activities continued below were funded through project DV8 prior to FY25 -Continue program development through system level modeling, simulation, integration and test support to address emerging threats -Continue test program to include utilization of targets/threat simulators, flight simulator and modeling efforts to maintain effectiveness -Continue supporting Integrated Fires and current force PATRIOT integrated fires PAC-3 missile segment testing -Continue PATRIOT program M&S laboratory infrastructure maintenance as well as the conduct of M&S for hardware/software capability improvements -Continue U.S. Government and contractor support to ensure force effectiveness is maintained to keep pace with evolving and emerging threats -Continue system integration activities, test and analysis, and threat analysis and modeling -Continue development of PAC-3 Fire Control and LoE -Continue AMD Effectors Survivability efforts for enhanced electronic protection across lower tier effectors (interceptors, fire control and M903 launching stations) -Continue development of PAC-3 MSE and Fire Control Enhancements specific to GDS for use in developmental testing in the LTAMDS/IBCS configuration.

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 | 83.1 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 123.1 |
| FY2027 | Request | 161.4 |
This activity is 100% of project DJ6's FY2027 request and 74% of PE 0607865A'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.
