What it is

Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM) (0605450A) is an Army research & development line funded in the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army account. Its J-book detail breaks the line into 1 project.

What changed

No FY25→26 comparison — endpoints unavailable or on different bases.

Who gets it

No single contractor is published as this line's leader. 1 linked award record is listed below. This line's high-confidence links do not clear the floor for a published concentration index — at least 3 awards across 2 contractor families holding positive obligations, with positive net linked dollars. Why the crosswalk is partial.

FY25→26 Change

No comparison: endpoints unavailable or on different bases

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. 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.

Data coverage

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? →

Budget trajectory

The program's 3 summary figures for FY24 to FY26, plotted in fiscal-year order: this line ends lower than it starts. The points are the summary cards above, not a separate derivation; the table beside the chart carries each figure with its own citation.

Budget trajectory: one row per fiscal year, carrying the summary figure the sparkline plots. Every figure opens its own citation.

Decade view

P-1/R-1 workbook TOA basis, shown compact in $B/$M (the workbook records USD thousands); each figure cites its own President's Budget edition

11 fiscal years of this program as published (FY2015–FY2025): 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 falls across the span. The grid below is the same data as text, one cited figure per cell.

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.

Decade series values by fiscal year and President's Budget edition: one row per series (actuals, enacted, request), one column per fiscal year. Every figure opens its own citation.
Series	FY15	FY16	FY17	FY18	FY19	FY20	FY21	FY22	FY23	FY24	FY25
Actuals	$80.6M	$79.9M	$47.4M	$28.5M	$12.4M	$6.31M	$7.57M	$2.47M	$2.28M	$2.90M
Enacted		$83.1M	$43.0M	$34.6M	$11.8M	$6.58M	$7.57M	$2.13M	$2.37M	$3.01M	$3.03M
Request			$43.0M	$34.6M	$11.8M	$9.50M	$8.89M	$2.13M	$2.37M	$3.01M	$3.03M

blank = series not published for this year; – = absent from that edition.

Asked vs spent: the PB2018 book requested $34.6M for FY2018; the PB2020 book reported $28.5M as actual total obligation authority — $6.09M below the request. 28.5 − 34.6 = -6.1 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Program lineage

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 — Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM)

The AGM-179 Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM) program is an Army-led, Acquisition Category (ACAT) 1C Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) with joint interest with the Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force. JAGM is the next generation, multi-mode, air-to-ground munition replacing legacy HELLFIRE (HF) and HF Longbow munitions. JAGM will be used for destruction of high-value land and maritime targets, moving or stationary, and is capable of being fired from any platform currently firing HF from a US Army-issued M299 launcher. JAGM utilizes a HF back-end (propulsion, warhead and control system) with a new-design, Millimeter Wave (MMW) and Semi-Active Laser (SAL), multi-mode guidance section. The multi-mode capability provides fire-and-forget and precision-point targeting as well as unique, blended modes of each, for improved capability over legacy munitions.

Mission — Joint Air-To-Ground Missile (JAGM)

The AGM-179 Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM) program is an Army-led, Acquisition Category (ACAT) IC Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) with joint interest with the United States (U.S.) Air Force, U.S. Marine Corps (USMC), and U.S. Navy. The JAGM is the next generation of aviation-launched, fire and forget missiles to replace the HELLFIRE Laser and Longbow radar missiles. JAGM will be used by joint service aircraft for destruction of high value stationary, moving, and relocatable land and maritime targets from standoff range in day, night, adverse weather, and obscured battlefield conditions.

The program's money traced left to right: the A appropriation, program element 0605450A (Joint Air-to-Ground Missile (JAGM)), its 1 largest high-confidence awards, the 1 recipient family behind them, and the 1 congressional district the work is recorded in. Read it for concentration — how few families and districts the awards run through. Amounts inside the diagram are illustrative per-award transaction sums; the table below carries the cited per-district obligations.

The diagram illustrates the cited table below — amounts shown in the diagram are transaction sums per award (no citation chips); the per-district obligations in the table cite USAspending queries.

Contractor concentration

No concentration index is published for this line. This line's high-confidence links do not clear the floor for a published concentration index — at least 3 awards across 2 contractor families holding positive obligations, with positive net linked dollars. An index below that floor is a fact about the sample, not about the market. Whatever further links this line carries are medium-confidence, and what each medium evidence path does and does not establish is set out in the methodology. Both bases are in the downloadable warehouse.
