Change Summary Explanation
The FY 2019 funding request was reduced by ($6.149) million to account for the availability of prior year execution balances. The increase of $24.341M in FY19 can be attributed to the first year of development of the Advanced Capability Extended Range Mortar (ACERM) and initiation of the integration and test of an anti-ship missile capability into the USMC HIMARS battalions.
