Budget figures
$7.08M discretionary + $261.2M one-time reconciliation. Discretionary change vs FY2025 enacted: -98.0%.
Two official figures, one label— reconciled below
Fiscal Receipts uses P-1/R-1 workbook total obligation authority (TOA) as the headline figure sitewide. The workbook TOA includes budget rows that the R-2/P-40 J-book program line excludes — advance procurement in an ordinary year, and in FY2026 the one-time reconciliation appropriation as well. Each row below names the one it is. How the two bases relate →
FY26 Request · $268.3M TOA − $7.08M J-book line = 261.2M (268.3 − 7.1 = 261.2) — $261.2M of one-time FY2026 reconciliation money accounts for this gap — not advance procurement
Figures in the sentence are rounded for reading; the parenthesised arithmetic is the same subtraction in USD millions, at the precision where it closes.

Asked vs spent: the PB2024 book requested $308.5M for FY2024; the PB2026 book reported $296.3M as actual total obligation authority — $12.2M below the request. 296.35 − 308.50 = -12.15 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description
Description — MK-48 Torpedo
The MK 48 Heavyweight Torpedo is the U.S. Navy's submarine launched Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and primary Anti-Surface Warfare (ASuW) weapon. The Heavyweight Torpedo provides the submarine force with an effective weapon against threat submarines and surface combatants to assist in achieving Sea Control and neutralizing or destroying threats to high value vessels. Torpedoes are the only proven weapon system that provides Navy control from the seabed to sea surface. Heavyweight AUR procurement is required to increase Warshot inventory to address increased Naval Munitions Requirement Process (NMRP) requirements gap. [P5 / G5001 - MK 48 MOD 7 Hardware]: Funding under this cost code supports the award and execution of two competitive contracts for procurement of the MK 48 MOD 7 Torpedo Guidance and Control & Warhead Electronic Systems (WES) Sections, and Afterbody Tail Cone & Fuel Tank Sections. Items in this Cost Code include: - Engineering Services / Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) funds (1) studies (2) plans (3) design changes, and (4) implementation of design changes by the contractor(s), primarily due to obsolescence that occurs during the contract performance. - Non-recurring Engineering (NRE) funding to resolve production issues including obsolescence. NRE funds (1) base contract year technology refresh due to obsolescence issues (2) production of Proof of Manufacturing (POM) units (3) first article testing (4) tooling (5) test equipment (6) procurement of technical data package updates, and (7) start-up costs for production contractors. - Installation funding for government installation and integration of MK 48 MOD 7 Guidance and Control and Afterbody Tail Cone Sections assembled into an All-Up Round (AUR). Installation costs match procurement delivery timelines. - Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS) funds are provided to address obsolescence issues in the Guidance and Control (G&C)/WES and Afterbody/Tail Cone/Fuel Tank sections during the production cycle. The contractors will be required to procure and deliver DMS material for these obsolete components. [P5 / G5002 - MK 48 TI-1 Hardware]: Funding under this cost code supports the award and execution of two contracts for procurement of a new MK 48 MOD 8 Torpedo Guidance and Control & Warhead Electronic Systems (WES) Section, and Afterbody Tail Cone and Fuel Tank Sections. MOD 8 supplies a new Guidance and Control (G&C) section including new Sonar Assembly (higher density array, transmitter, receiver), Guidance and Control Box (GCB), Tuning Box, and an Ethernet device switch. In addition, the MOD 8 will also feature a new Warhead Electronics System (WES) to support improved fuzing and the Improved Post Launch Communications System (IPLCS), which will replace the existing copper guidance wire with fiber optics. Improvements are needed in the presence of advanced countermeasures, shallow water, low Doppler targets, Very Shallow Water (VSW), and to improve fuzing and Anti-Surface Warfare (ASuW) performance. The MOD 8 G&C Section allows full fleet introduction of the APB 6 and to meet requirements of the MK 48 Improvements CDD (857-97-12). Other Items in this Cost Code include: - Engineering services / Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) funds (1)studies, (2)plans, (3)design changes, and (4)implementation of design changes by the contractor(s), primarily due to obsolescence that occurs during the contract performance. - Non-recurring Engineering (NRE) funding to resolve production issues including obsolescence.
