Budget figures
No FY2026 R-1/P-1 request line for this program element. The FY2026 President's Budget request workbook carries no FY2026 line for it; its last workbook figure is FY2024. The PB2026 J-book detail below does carry an FY2026 row for this line, recorded as zero. A workbook blank and a documented zero are different records, and this page shows both. An absent line is not by itself an ending — PB2026 renumbered program elements at scale across the services and defense agencies, so this work may continue under a different number. No successor is linked for this line: this site's program-lineage layer holds no keyed edge pointing forward from here. That is an absence in this site's lineage layer, not a finding about the program: if the J-book narrative on this page describes a realignment, it is quoted below in the document's own words, and this note does not restate it.
FY2026 award data is a partial year — USAspending reports awards on a rolling basis, and this corpus runs through 2026-09-04. why partial FY2026 data? →

The vertical scale does not start at zero: the baseline sits just below this program’s smallest year, so a low point on this line is not a small amount. Read the shape for direction and the grid below for the figures.
● actuals (line) · ○ enacted · ◇ request — gaps are editions the program is absent from, never interpolated.

Asked vs spent: the PB2018 book requested $58.7M for FY2018; the PB2020 book reported $53.4M as actual total obligation authority — $5.32M below the request. 53.4 − 58.7 = -5.3 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

No predecessor/successor lineage was recorded for this program element — no FY-to-FY transfer into or out of this line was stated in the ingested J-books, and none was inferred from the program structure.
Description
Mission — Amphibious Assault Vehicle
The Assault Amphibious Vehicle (AAV) program provides life-cycle support to ensure cost-effective combat readiness for the AAV Family of Vehicles (FOV). This is accomplished through engineering changes resulting from continuous review of sub-systems to maintain system supportability, safety, reduce total ownership costs, improve fleet readiness, address obsolescence issues, and improve vehicle performance. The Recovery variant will provide recovery support for the Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) until an ACV Recovery variant is fielded. Improvements to the fleet reduce total ownership costs and improve sustainability. The AAV Modifications Line procures modernized components and subsystems that impact safe and reliable use of the AAV such as the Water Egress Capability (WEC), Tactical Communication Modernization (TCM) to meet NSA's cryptographic modernization mandates, quarterly software refresh of servers and laptops for Command-variant (C-Variant), and associated production support for the AAV FOV. Funding for the AAV FOV is critical to maintaining the amphibious capability of the USMC until the ACV is fully fielded and operational. In accordance with the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) Force Design 2030, the order and testing of preplanned product improvements for the AAV program has come to an end; the program will continue to support the fleet of AAVs for emerging issues pertaining to design/redesign of parts and components for obsolescence, supportability, and safety issues through system retirement of the AAVP7s and AAVC7s in FY 2027 and the AAVR7s in FY 2029.

Justification
Accomplishments & Planned Programs (1)
Product Development
This cost element provides funding for design and development engineering for the AAV Modifications Line. The AAV Modifications Line provides Nonrecurring Engineering (NRE) and design for AAV safety, obsolescence, and performance improvement engineering for the AAV Family of Vehicles (FOV).

Oversight
Department-level designation (not specific to this program)
GAO lists 5 high-risk areas for DOD as a whole. That designation covers the department, not Amphibious Assault Vehicle. No program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.
