Change Summary Explanation
The FY2020 funding request was reduced by $7.60M to account for the availability of prior year execution balances. The net decrease from FY19 to FY20 attributed to a combination of the following programmatic events: Funds from project 2928 (HIMARS) realigned from BA7 in FY19 to BA4 in FY20 to support the Anti-Ship Missile (ASM) capability developmental and testing efforts and the realignment of development funding in project 1901 (Company and Battalion Mortars) to PE 0603635M, Project 7400 - Organic Precision Fires (OPF)in FY20. Additionally, there is a decrease in funding for Project 4002 (Aerial Delivery and Autonomous Distribution Entry) due to completion of testing of Unmanned Logistics System (ULS)/Aerial Delivery and Autonomous Distribution (A2D2) testing.
