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.

Asked vs spent: the PB2024 book requested $165.3M for FY2024; the PB2026 book reported $160.1M as actual total obligation authority — $5.21M below the request. 160.1 − 165.3 = -5.2 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Description — Artillery Weapons System
This line item both modernizes and sustains essential expeditionary long-range precision fires capabilities integral to the design of the National Defense Strategy (NDS) driven force in accordance with the Commandant's Planning Guidance. Funding procures launchers, carriers, missiles, training equipment, and associated support. The three primary weapons systems are: 1) As the Marine Corps' first Ground Based Anti-Ship Missile (GBASM) capability, the Navy/Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System (NMESIS) is a force Design priority central to the Marine Corps' contribution to the Naval Expeditionary Force's (NEF) surface warfare campaign. This is a critical service modernization capability requirement focused specifically on countering the nation's pacing threat. Ground-based launchers add a new type of threat against a peer adversary, stress different surveillance and offensive systems, are hard to detect and track in a cluttered environment and add a significant level of persistence and depth to existing anti-ship capabilities. NMESIS will be employed by Medium-range Missile (MMSL) batteries within the Marine Divisions and will be especially suited for operations with Marine Littoral Regiments and Marine Expeditionary Units and when integrated into sensor and communication networks supporting a naval/maritime mission thread, and synchronized with employment of other missile systems, the NMESIS-equipped MMSL batteries will serve as a component of the NEF "stand-in force" providing lethal, precision anti-ship fires supporting sea denial and sea control operations. NMESIS consists of two Naval Strike Missiles (NSM) and a launcher/weapon control system integrated on to a ground-based, teleoperated carrier (called ROGUE-Fires). It will provide a ground based anti-access/area denial and anti-ship capability. 2) The High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), which is the weapon system employed by 10 active and reserve artillery batteries, is a C-130 transportable, wheeled, indirect fire, rocket/missile launcher capable of firing all rockets and missiles in the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS) Family of Munitions (MFOM). HIMARS provides Naval Expeditionary Forces with 24-hour ground-based, responsive, indirect fires to accurately engage targets at range (70+km) with high volumes of lethal effects under all weather conditions throughout all phases of combat operations. The system includes one launcher, two Re-Supply Systems, and the MFOM. HIMARS efforts align with the National Defense Strategy (NDS) to build a more lethal Joint Force in contested environments through capabilities that are able to strike diverse targets inside the adversary's weapons engagement zone (WEZ). HIMARS will be capable of firing the Army-developed Precision Strike Missile (PrSM), enabling engagement of moving land and maritime targets to complement the capabilities provided by the NMESIS. Efforts also include the modernization and obsolescence mitigation of HIMARS in order to provide improved operational capabilities. 3) The Long-Range Fires (LRF) program sought to provide Combatant Commanders with the ability to employ an agile, mobile, land-based system, capable of launching Tomahawk cruise missiles to complement surface and sub-surface launched missiles. The LRF weapon system consisted of a ROGUE-Fires carrier (same design as the Navy and Marine Corps Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System (NMESIS) carrier), integrated with a single cell MK-41 vertical launch system launcher (a similar configuration to those employed by the US Navy) for the employment of an encanistered Tomahawk missile, and Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS).
Justification
Justification — Artillery Weapons System
FY 2026 Baseline Appropriation Request: $221.897M NMESIS: The FY 2026 request is $207.431M. The increase from FY 2025 to FY 2026 is due to the initiation of the Block II NMESIS Launcher and Carrier production (QTY: 32), procurement of associated equipment sets, and initial spares. Launchers and Carriers are procured in a one-to-one relationship while the Weapon Control System (WCS), ROGUE-Fires Leader Kits, and Re-Supply System are purchased in different ratios in relation to the stand-up of individual Medium-Range Missile (MMSL) Batteries and not in relation to NMESIS Launchers or Carriers. Funds support FY 2026 production, contractor logistics support for the fielded MMSL batteries, procurement of NMESIS training rounds for unit-level training purposes, and Encanistered Missile - Telemetry (EM-T) for Fleet exercises. In addition, funds support Block I Production Qualification Testing (PQT). HIMARS: The FY 2026 request is $14.466M. The increase from FY 2025 to FY 2026 is due to the initial procurement of the Common Fire Control System (CFCS) which provides an advanced common launcher control unit, weapon control unit and power switching unit for operators. FY 2026 funding also continues the procurement of Reduced Range Practice Rockets (RRPR) required to maintain the Standards in Training Commission (STRC) inventory levels. The RRPR is currently the only training rocket that meets the annual certification and pre-deployment requirements for HIMARS capable units. LRF: The Marine Corps has concluded that the LRF system was not able to be employed in austere, expeditionary, littoral environments and has made the decision to terminate the program. The net increase from FY 2025 to FY 2026 reflects the termination of LRF and the initial procurement of NMESIS Block II systems. The FY 2026 request was reduced by $3.762 million for Advisory and Assistance Services to promote efficiencies and advance the policies of the Administration in alignment with Executive Order 14222, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Cost Efficiency Initiative."

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.
