Change Summary Explanation
The FY 2021 funding request was reduced by $5.420M to account for the availability of prior year execution balances. The net increase from FY 2020 to FY 2021 by $9.593M is primarily attributed to the increase in funding for Project 2315 (Training Devices/Simulators) to support emerging reengineering requirements, system interoperability development/test and associated support labor. Additionally, there is an increase in funding for Project 1901 (MC Ground Weaponry Prod Improvement) for Next Gen Squad Weapon (NGSW). Funding in this line item has been reprioritized while ensuring the Marine Corps continues to evolve toward a Force that is aligned with the National Defense Strategy.
