Justification— ORDNANCE ITEMS <$5M

1. Air Delivered Munitions. Provides 20+ AC-130 gunship munitions to include several tactical and training configurations of the 30mm, 105mm and fuzes, including the associated safety certification, Insensitive Munitions (IM) production verification testing, production engineering, and transportation. FY 2026 PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION: Procures and qualifies 48,000 30MM air delivered ammunition to meet mission requirements essential to maintain AC-130 Gunship crew mission-related readiness skills and provide combat mission support. Actual quantities vary depending on training requirements. 2. Small Caliber Bullets. Provides 75+ barrel launched munitions including the associated safety certification, Insensitive Munitions production verification testing, production engineering and transportation. Provides several tactical and training configurations of the U.S. and non-standard foreign munitions, weapons and related equipment, in calibers of 4.6mm, 5.45mm, 5.56mm, 6.5mm, .260, 7.62mm, .300NM, .338NM, 9mm, .357, .380, .40, .44, .45, .50 caliber, 12.7mm, 14.7mm, 12 gauge, 25mm, 40mm, 60mm, 64mm, 66mm, 81mm, 84mm, 105mm, 4.2", 107mm, 120mm, 155mm, rocket propelled grenades and other calibers as required. FY 2026 PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION: Funding procures the following munitions: Handgun; Rifle; Sniper Rifle; and Machine Gun (all types of 5.56mm, 7.62mm, .300 BLK, .50 Caliber, 6.5MM, .300NM, .338NM and others as required); replenishes munitions expended in real-world events and training. Procures various types of non-standard foreign ammunition. Actual quantities vary depending on training requirements. FY 2025 to FY 2026 Net increase of $2.132 million includes $0.298 million realigned to Operation and Maintenance (O&M), Maintenance Sub Activity Group. Funds procurement of required munitions. 3. Demolition, Breaching and Pyrotechnics. Provides 85+ munitions including the associated safety certification, Insensitive Munitions production verification testing, production engineering, and transportation. Provides several tactical and training configurations of munitions and related equipment of explosively formed penetrators, conical shape charges, linear shaped charges, diversionary devices, demolition hand grenades, breaching devices, demolition hand grenades, breaching devices, explosives, firing devices, underwater munitions, flares, signaling devices, along with tools, equipment, and attaching devices for constructing and emplacing a variety of demolition charges and other munitions as required. Funding will accelerate fielding upgraded capabilities while at the same time fielding innovative technologies and creative operational concepts to target adversary vulnerabilities. FY 2025 to FY 2026 increase of $4.555 million to support procurement of required devices and training requirements. FY 2026 PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION: Procures grenades (offensive/smoke), training devices, a variety of demolition materiel consisting of explosives, firing devices, accessories, and flares. Replenishes munitions expended in real-world events and training. Actual quantities vary depending on training requirements. 4. Shoulder-Fired Munitions and Rockets. Provides unguided and laser-guided shoulder fired munitions, launchers and rockets, including the associated safety certification, IM qualification, production engineering, and transportation. Provides tactical and training configurations of munitions and related equipment providing armored vehicle destruction, bunker and hardened facility destruction, soft target destruction, fire from enclosure, anti-personnel, smoke obscuration, visible and infrared illumination, as well as sub-caliber training devices with back blast simulation. These systems give SOF extended range fires to operate where no artillery, mortar, or armor support is available. FY 2026 JUSTIFICATION: Procures shoulder fired munitions, launchers and rockets. Replenishes munitions expended in real-world events and training. Actual quantities vary depending on training requirements. 5. Stand-Off Precision Guided Munitions (SOPGM), Program Number 8XE. Provides precision guided munitions including the associated safety certification, IM qualification, production engineering, transportation, and provides for the integration of service-common and SO-peculiar (SO-p) SOPGM onto SOF platforms to support lethal strike and armed overwatch capability on the battlefield. Includes procurement of SO-p munitions for designated SOF platforms and modification of service-provided munitions to meet specific SOF mission sets including first-pass lethality, low collateral damage requirements, net enabled weapons, and dynamic moving targets. The SOPGM program has been designated a Major Capability Acquisition (MCA) at Milestone C, in accordance with the authority in DoD Directive 5135.02, the guidance in DoD Instruction 5000.85. The purpose of the MCA is to acquire air-to-ground precision guided munitions capabilities by delivering first pass lethality against targets requiring a one-shot kill engagement and also includes integration of long-range, low-cost strike missiles, and improved warheads to support global operations in diverse environments with varying threat level. FY 2026 PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION: Procures 175 Hellfire modifications/All Up Rounds, 84 small cruise missiles, as well as necessary integration/shipping services. SOPGM unit costs are estimates; the price fluctuates based on quantities of systems procured during the ordering period. FY 2025 to FY 2026 net increase of $2.643 million supports increased costs for Hellfire missile Selectable Precision Effects Articulated (SPEAR) warhead integration and shipping and small cruise missile procurement. 6. Ground Organic Precision Strike Systems (GOPSS), Program Number 710. Provides a family of precision strike munitions with the ability to rapidly launch, fly, track and engage stationary and moving targets in a variety of environments. GOPSS provides SOF units an organic capability in contested and multi-domain battlefield where close-air support may not be available. Man-packable, crew served, and vehicle mounted systems with Electro-Optical/Infrared sensor downlink keeps operators in-the-loop. Datalink, global positioning system, and inertial aided guidance extends range beyond laser-guided shoulder launched munitions. FY 2026 PROGRAM JUSTIFICATION: Procures 12 Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) micro munitions, 4 VTOL control kits micro, 24 crew-served PSS munitions, 5 crew-served ground data terminals, 4 crew-served fire control kits, 8 crew-served spares, and 3 crew-served simulators. Actual quantities may vary based on actual funding and the overall GOPSS requirement. Funding supports planned GOPSS allocations for Marine Special Operations Command and Naval Special Warfare Command. FY 2025 to FY 2026 decrease of $21.320 million is due to reprioritization of FY 2024 FY 2025 funding between Demolition and GOPSS programs to take advantage of cost savings achieved through larger bulk buys for both programs, resulting in purchase of increased quantities at lower prices, as well as the projected completion of HERO-120 system procurement for United States Army Special Operations Command in FY 2025. 7.
