What the FY2027 request buys
Verbatim from the R-2A exhibit for project S0417 of PE 1160483BB. 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.
Continues investments and development/transition of technologies to enable assured access, in support of SOF maritime undersea technology insertion roadmap and aligned to the 2026 National Defense Strategy.
Increase of $13.206 million supports the continued investments and development/transition of technologies to enable assured access, in support of SOF maritime undersea technology insertion roadmap.
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.
Continue investments and development/transition of technologies to enable assured access in support of SOF maritime undersea technology insertion roadmap. Note: FY 2026 President's Budget included $0.00 million in discretionary funding and $16.420 million in mandatory funding for CBDIV.
Continue development/transition of technologies to enable assured access in support of SOF maritime undersea technology insertion roadmap and aligned to Interim National Defense Strategic Guidance priorities. Increases emphasis on technologies to improve survivability of SOF undersea platforms. Expands collaboration with strategic partners to transition capabilities of interest.
Three years, and no five-year plan
An R-2A activity publishes the prior year, the current year and the budget year. The FYDP outyears exist at project and program-element level and are deliberately absent here rather than inferred. Estimate types are colored and never summed into one figure.
| Fiscal Year | Estimate Type | Amount ($M) |
|---|---|---|
| FY2025 | Actual | 23.5 |
| FY2026 | Enacted | 0.0 |
| FY2027 | Request | 13.2 |
This activity is 4.6% of project S0417's FY2027 request and 3.8% of PE 1160483BB'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.
