1R-1 PE0603884C BMD Sensors. Annual appropriation scope, not lifetime development cost. FY2026 includes the listed reconciliation spend plan; FY2027 includes discretionary and mandatory requests where present. Shared program scope; cannot be attributed solely to this product.
Support counts and export completions use different scopes
The U.S. budget’s 13-radar support scope must not be combined with a Saudi production announcement as if both measured U.S. operational inventory. Broad BMD Sensors R&D is not attributed solely to AN/TPY-2.
