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 $3.34M for FY2024; the PB2026 book reported $3.34M as actual total obligation authority — $2.00K below the request. 3.3 − 3.3 = -0.0 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Description — Joint Precision Approach and Landing System(JPALS)
The Joint Precision Approach and Landing System (JPALS) is the primary precision approach and landing system for CVN and LHA/D ships to support aircraft without SPN-46 Automatic Carrier Landing Systems (ACLS) capability, which include F-35B, F-35C, MQ-25, CVM-22 and future platforms. The nomenclature for JPALS has been designated AN/USN-3(V)1, Satellite Signals Landing System (SSLS). JPALS ship systems are required to provide CVN and LHA/D ships a primary precision approach capability during night and instrument flight conditions, including coupled approach capability to a hover transition point for LHA/D ships, and coupled approach to the deck (auto-land) capability aboard CVN ships, and in contested environments. JPALS also provides over-the-air inertial alignment capability for CVN and LHA/D ships to support aircraft platforms without Link-4A capability, including F-35, MQ-25, CVM-22 and future platforms. JPALS MS B occurred June 2016 and MS C occurred April 2019. Production contract awarded May 2019. Material Support date March 2023.
Justification
Justification — Joint Precision Approach and Landing System(JPALS)
FY 2026 funds the installation of (2) Landing Autonomous Navigation Technology for Enhanced Recovery to Navy Ships (LANTERNS), as well as ECPs for Agnostic Data Link, and Waveoff Circuit Card Assembly (CCA) to compensate for the erroneous Waveoff for the MQ-25A. The FY 2026 request was reduced by $.366 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.
