No FY25→26 comparison — endpoints unavailable or on different bases.
Who gets it
No company is linked to this line. Award records do not carry the program element, so the crosswalk is silent here — why.

One fiscal year of this program as published: a line through the actuals (filled dots), with the enacted (hollow circles) and request (diamonds) markers each edition reported. Read it for direction, not for precision — this program's actuals line is too short to show a direction. The grid below is the same data as text, one cited figure per cell.

Description

Mission — Electromagnetic Battle Management (EMBM)

Electromagnetic Battle Management is an Air Force capability to provide electromagnetic spectrum situational awareness, decision support, and command and control linked by common architectures, standards, and data to enable planning, coordination, and synchronization of electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO) across the range of military operations. EMBM will consist of five component capabilities; the ability to attain and maintain EMS Situational Awareness (SA), EMS planning and decision support, non-kinetic command and control, spectrum deconfliction, and a training interface - linked by common architecture, standards, and data. EMBM enables the Combined/Joint Force Air Component Commander to prioritize, integrate, synchronize, C2, and de-conflict non-kinetic operations in support of current operations. AF EMBM will feed into EMBM-J at the COCOM-level. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605829F, 060531F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full rate production.

Justification

Accomplishments & Planned Programs (1)

EMBM Development

Perform assessments and analyses for an Air Force capability to analyze adversaries' use of the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS), make real-time decisions assisted by machine learning/artificial intelligence, preform effective electromagnetic attack (EA), and share EA techniques and identification/targeting criteria to the joint warfighting force.

Follow the dollar

No follow-the-dollar view — this program's awards haven't been crosswalked at high confidence (flows cover 312 of 1,938 programs). why coverage is partial? →

Awards

No awards are linked to this program element at high or medium confidence — the budget→award crosswalk only asserts links it can defend, and this line has none yet.

Lobbying mentions

No Senate LDA lobbying filing in the tracked data mentions this program element by code or alias.

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 Electromagnetic Battle Management (EMBM). No program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.

Program dossier

No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,938 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
