1Annual research appropriation/reference, not lifetime development cost. FY2025 figures in PB2025 are requests; PB2027 shows FY2025 actuals, FY2026 enacted/spend plan, FY2027 request.
2Annual program funding in the cited budget vintage; not a unit price, contract award, or actual delivery count.
A program objective is not current inventory
PB2025 describes a 689-set acquisition objective and sustainment through 2050. Those are historical planning assumptions, not a current fielded count.
