Budget Figures
FY2026 award data is a partial year — USASpending awards are reported on a rolling basis and the fiscal year does not close until September 30. why partial FY2026 data? →
| Fiscal year | Amount |
|---|---|
| FY24 | $50.7M |
| FY25 | $86.2M |
| FY26 | $16.3M |
All series figures: R-1 TOA · PB2026
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.

blank = series not published for this year; – = absent from that edition.
Asked vs spent: the PB2024 book requested $131.8M for FY2024; the PB2026 book reported $50.7M as actual total obligation authority — $81.1M below the request. 50.7 − 131.8 = -81.1 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Mission — Rapid Technology Capability Prototype
The Marine Corps Rapid Capabilities Office (MCRCO) is established under the direction of the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC) to identify, develop, and transition emergent and disruptive capabilities that significantly enhance survivability, lethality, and effectiveness for the Fleet Marine Forces (FMF). MCRCO focuses on rapid prototype development, testing, and integration of cutting-edge technologies at Technology Readiness Level 7 or higher, ensuring seamless and efficient transition to the FMF. Leveraging both government and commercial off-the-shelf solutions, as well as developmental items, MCRCO plays a critical role in maintaining the Marine Corps' strategic readiness and technological edge.

Mission — Congressional Adds
Wing-in-Ground-effect (WIG) platforms are an emerging alternative maritime transportation capability that will disrupt the adversaries kill chain and result in a cost imposition on enemy targeting. WIG platforms have potential to fill capability gaps in the Marine Corps' family of Littoral-Maritime Transportation & Mobility Systems. WIGs are water borne, inexpensive, maneuverable, platforms offering an alternative mode of high-speed surface transportation in a contested maritime, anti-access/area denial (A2AD) environment. Operating in ground effect provides maximum operational efficiency and allows the vessels to be certified as a maritime platform vice an aircraft, reducing certification and training requirements.

Awards
No awards are linked to this program element at high 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 Rapid Technology Capability Prototype — no program-specific GAO finding for this line is in the ingested data. See the DOD oversight record.
No research dossier for this program — dossiers cover 50 of 1,741 programs, the largest fully J-book-detailed lines by FY2026 requested dollars. why no dossier here? →
