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.

Asked vs spent: the PB2024 book requested $34.8M for FY2024; the PB2026 book reported $28.6M as actual total obligation authority — $6.25M below the request. 28.6 − 34.8 = -6.2 USD millions — the compact figures above are rounded for reading.

Description

Description — F-15

The F-15C and F-15D Eagle are highly maneuverable all-weather air superiority fighters. The F-15E Strike Eagle retains the basic air-to-air capability of the F-15C and F-15D, but adds a weapon systems officer (WSO), rear cockpit, conformal fuel tanks, and advanced systems for all-weather, day/night, all-altitude, deep penetration, air-to-surface attack. F-15E Integrated Aircrew Trainers (IATs), funded in PE 0207134F, supported the procurement of additional IATs in order to better implement formal syllabus training and meet HAF intent by preparing for 20% increase in FTU production (in accordance with ACC/A3T memo, dated 29 Jun 2016). Training plans included moving all Computer Based Training (CBTs) from desktop PCs to the IATs for increased fidelity and reduced Subject Matter Expert (SME) hours when teaching basic avionics use in IATs and Mission Training Center (MTC) events. Through FY 2023, the program continued post-production support of the F-15C, F-15D, and F-15E support equipment and tooling, to include Electronic Systems Test Set (ESTS) and post production support for the F-15 tooling storage at Granite City, IL. This equipment is used for the manufacture, test, support, or repair of the F-15 aircraft and/or its associated system components. The retention of Special Tooling/Special Test Equipment (ST/STE) is based on past usage history, current spare/repair parts contracts, and projections for future requirements. In accordance with Section 1815 of the FY2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), this item is necessary for use by the active and reserve components of the Armed Forces for homeland defense missions, domestic emergency response, and providing military support to civil authorities. No Research Development Test and Evaluation funding is associated with this effort. Funds may be used to address Diminishing manufacturing Sources (DMS) efforts to include removal of end-of-life software/hardware within simulators systems and move to a modular, common open system architecture that is sustainable and cyber-resilient. Tooling is loaned/leased to support manufacturing of spares, as well as to support the execution of modification programs, life extension activities, and sustainment efforts.

Description — F-15

This line item funds modifications to the F-15 aircraft. The F-15C and F-15D is a twin engine (F-15C single seat; F-15D dual seat) supersonic, all-weather, day/night, air-superiority fighter. The F-15E is a twin engine, two seat, supersonic dual-role, day/night, all-weather, deep interdiction fighter with multi-role air-to-air capabilities. As of June 2025, Air Force inventory included 92 F-15C, 7 F-15D, and 217 F-15E aircraft. F-15 modifications are to improve operational capability, reliability and maintainability, and flight safety. The specific modifications budgeted and programmed are below. Funding may be used to address Diminishing Manufacturing Sources (DMS) issues. In accordance with Section 1815 of the FY 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), this item is necessary for use by the active and reserve components of the Armed Forces for homeland defense missions, domestic emergency responses, and providing military support to civil authorities. Funding for this exhibit is contained in PEs 0207130F, 0207134F, 0207445F, 0207146F, and 0809731F. The FY 2026 request was reduced by 4.024 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.

Lobbying mentions
