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 FY2025. 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. Where this line's funding went is recorded under Program Lineage below.
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.

Description
Mission — Spectrum Situational Awareness System (S2AS)
Spectrum Situational Awareness System (S2AS) supports Army key modernization initiatives by allowing commanders to sense and see themselves in the Electro-Magnetic Spectrum (EMS), preventing electronic fratricide, helping shape the electronic operating environment, and increasing Command Post (CP) survivability. Operationally S2AS allows commanders to determine and impact their visibility to enemy fire chain. S2AS is a dedicated EMS situational awareness management system that provides the Commander with real time EMS Situational Awareness to support Emissions Control (EMCON) decisions, Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Resolution, and detect/warn operations centers of unauthorized or intentional sources of interference on today's complex battlefield. S2AS will employ sophisticated hardware and software to strengthen the capabilities of the Army and ensuring resilience against potential adversarial threat. S2AS will address current and future EMS challenges, ensuring awareness and secure use of the EMS. Enables integration, interoperability and force modernization with emerging capabilities in support of USAREUR-AF and USARPAC Operational Needs Statements, Transformation in Contact (TiC) initiatives, and Presidential Directives.

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 Spectrum Situational Awareness System (S2AS). 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? →
