## Summary

This activity requests $110.3M in FY2027, 100% of project 657111 — a new start with no prior-year and no current-year money. The R-2A exhibit describes it across FY2027, including what the FY2027 money is planned to buy.

## What the FY2027 request buys

**FY2027 planned work.** Begin high value Mesh Data Transport and processing upgrades to connect MW assets and enable data distribution. Begin stand up cloud infrastructure to establish central and edge-node compute processing. Start containerizing of missile warning applications to enable globally accessible Missile Warning and Tracking (MWT) mission baseline and geographically-agnostic baseline management. Start cloud proliferation to enable a MWT baseline globally accessible with high availability. Begin technology maturation and risk reduction for S/E-capable communication antenna, mission antenna, and containerized processing capabilities. Begin S/E prototype development: building prototype S/E node with pathway to delivering first operational S/E node.

**FY2026 to FY2027 change.** FY 2027 increased due to new Resilient Ground Architecture efforts beginning in 2027.
