5 fiscal years of this program as published (FY2022–FY2026): 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 rises across the span, and 1 year is a break in the line rather than a low value: an edition the program is absent from, never interpolated. 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.

Description

Description — MID-RANGE CAPABILITY (MRC)

This budget line procures Tomahawk and Standard Missile-6 (SM-6) missiles to meet the Army Total Munition Requirement and procures MRC Ground Support Equipment end items and components. The Mid-Range Capability is a ground launched, long-range precision fires offensive weapon system to defeat Anti-Access/Area-Denial (A2/AD) threats and other high value targets to enable warfighter dominance in support of Long-Range Precision Fires, Multi-Domain Operations, and Joint Force objectives. Each battery consists of four launchers equipped with a Vertical Launch System capable of carrying four of the U.S. Navy's Tomahawk and/or SM-6 with a basic load of 16 missiles, one Battery Operations Center (BOC), one BOC Support Vehicle, and a reload capability. Tomahawk missiles procured on Navy contracts will include the Block V modernized Tactical Tomahawk (TACTOM) missile that includes navigation communications upgrade and advanced communication package (ACP). These TACTOM upgrades consist of the Integrated Single Box Solution radio, two new antennas and associated cabling, a new mid-body cover, changes to the aft-body structure and aft-body cover, and installation of the ACP. In FY25, the Army is procuring a mix of Block V and Block Va Maritime Strike Tomahawks (MST). Beginning in FY26, the Army will only procure the MST variant. SM-6 missiles procured on Navy contracts will be in the Block IA configuration. The MRC SM-6 missiles provide land and naval surface targeting capability. SM-6 missiles are procured as an all up round including guidance, ordnance, MK 72 Boosters, and a MK 21 Canister.

Justification

Justification — MID-RANGE CAPABILITY (MRC)

C81214 | FY 2026 funding of $42.874 million supports the procurement of seven MSTs and MK14 cannisters, along with program management costs. C81215 | FY 2026 funding of $4.801 million supports MRC GSE systems engineering and program management costs. C81216 | FY 2026 funding of $34.732 million supports the procurement of six SM-6 Block IA configuration missiles. This funding line is directly aligned to the Army Long-Range Precision Fires Modernization Priority and the requirements of the MRC Abbreviated-Capabilities Development Document. The Army intends to convert any price advantage created through Navy contract negotiations, other service procurement, and/or foreign military sales to support procurement of additional MRC munitions. Decrease in funding from $233.037 million in FY 2025 to $82.407 million in FY 2026 is due to reduced missile quantities procured in FY26 and completing GSE end item procurement in FY25. C81214 | FY 2024 quantity of 58 locked from prior budget submission. Program Office anticipates a reduced quantity of 26 in response to unit cost increase on Navy TLAM production contract.

Oversight

GAO oversight of this program

GAO assessed Mid-Range Capability (MRC) in its June 2025 Weapon Systems Annual Assessment, as an Army MTA program.

“The Army is developing an offensive, ground-based MRC weapon system to bridge a capability gap between systems designed for short- and long-range fires. MRC is leveraging existing Navy Standard Missile - 6 and Tomahawk cruise missile technology and modifying the Navy's ship-based vertical launching system for containerized use with existing Army vehicles. The Army's Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO) delivered the first MRC battery in September 2023 through a prototype development effort. The Army, through Program Executive Office Missiles and Space, intends to deliver batteries 2 through 4 during the current MTA rapid prototyping effort, and battery 5 during a follow-on MTA rapid fielding effort.”

GAO-25-107569, p. 109 — the assessment page in GAO’s 2025 report

Earlier editions of the same assessment: June 2024

GAO assessed Mid-Range Capability (MRC) in its June 2024 Weapon Systems Annual Assessment, as an Army MTA program.

“The Army is developing an offensive, ground-based MRC weapon system to bridge a capability gap between systems designed for short- and long- range fires. MRC is leveraging existing Navy Standard Missile (SM)-6 and Tomahawk cruise missile technology and modifying the Navy's ship-based vertical launching system (VLS) for containerized use with existing Army vehicles. The Army intends to deliver three MRC batteries under the current MTA rapid prototyping effort no later than fiscal year 2026.”

GAO assessed the program, not this budget line. MID-RANGE CAPABILITY (MRC) is one of the lines that funds it, and GAO’s work above says nothing about this line’s own figures. Which line each GAO item attaches to is a hand-ratified crosswalk — how it was checked.

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 MID-RANGE CAPABILITY (MRC). GAO's program-level work on this line is above. See the DOD oversight record.
