                               BACKGROUND

                          Purpose of the Bill

    This bill makes appropriations for the military functions 
of the Department of Defense for the period October 1, 2024, 
through September 30, 2025. Functional areas include the pay, 
allowances, and support of military personnel, operation and 
maintenance of the forces, procurement of equipment and 
systems, and research, development, test and evaluation. 
Appropriations for foreign military assistance, military 
construction, family housing, nuclear weapons programs, and 
civil defense are provided in other bills.

                                Hearings

    The Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense began hearings 
on April 9, 2024 and concluded them on July 18, 2024, after 
eight separate sessions. The subcommittee heard testimony from 
representatives of the Department of Defense and the 
Intelligence Community.

                          Summary of the Bill

    The Committee recommendation of $852,179,000,000 includes 
funding to develop, maintain, and equip the military forces of 
the United States and for other purposes, including 
$514,000,000 in mandatory spending and $20,800,000,000 in 
emergency funding.
    The fiscal year 2025 budget request for activities funded 
in the Department of Defense appropriations bill totals 
$833,415,121,000 in new budget authority, including 
$514,000,000 in mandatory spending.
    In fiscal year 2024, the Congress appropriated 
$892,059,545,000 for activities funded in this bill. This 
amount included $824,999,000,000 in base appropriations of 
which $514,000,000 was mandatory spending. Additionally, the 
Congress appropriated $67,060,545,000 in emergency 
appropriations for fiscal year 2024 in Public Law 118-50.
    The Committee recommendation in this bill is $6,380,000,000 
above the amount provided in fiscal year 2024, excluding all 
emergency funding, and $18,763,879,000 above the amount 
requested for fiscal year 2025 including emergency funding.

       scorekeeping
       adjustments).........
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Committee has displayed recommended adjustments in 
tables presented under each appropriation account.
    These adjustments reflect the following Committee actions: 
removal of funds excess to need based on contract award savings 
or changes to a program's acquisition strategy; elimination of 
funds requested for programs which are lower priority, 
duplicative, or not supported by firm requirements with out-
year development or procurement appropriations; deletion of 
excess funds based on program delays or slow execution; 
addition of funds to reflect congressional priorities, to 
include executable unfunded requirements, and to rectify 
shortfalls in the budget estimate; and implementation of 
recommendations in S.4638, the National Defense Authorization 
Act for Fiscal Year 2025, as reported by the Senate Armed 
Services Committee.

                     CLASSIFIED PROGRAM ADJUSTMENTS

    The Committee recommends adjustments to certain classified 
programs, as explained in the classified annex to the 
Committee's report.

              Definition of Program, Project and Activity

    The terms ``program, project, and activity'' for 
appropriations contained in this act shall be defined as the 
most specific level of budget items identified in the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2025, the related 
classified annexes and Committee report, and P-1 and R-1 budget 
justification documents as subsequently modified by 
congressional action.
    The following exception to the above definition shall 
apply: the military personnel and the operation and maintenance 
accounts, for which the term ``program, project, and activity'' 
is defined as the appropriations accounts contained in the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act.
    At the time the President submits the budget request for 
fiscal year 2026, the Secretary of Defense is directed to 
transmit to the congressional defense committees budget 
justification documents to be known as the ``M-1'' and ``O-1'' 
which shall identify, at the budget activity, activity group, 
and sub-activity group level, the amounts requested by the 
President to be appropriated to the Department of Defense for 
military personnel and operation and maintenance in any budget 
request, or amended budget request, for fiscal year 2026.

                         Reprogramming Guidance

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow 
the reprogramming guidance for acquisition accounts as 
specified in the report accompanying the House version of the 
Department of Defense appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008 
(House Report 110-279). The dollar threshold for reprogramming 
funds shall be $15,000,000 for military personnel; $15,000,000 
for operation and maintenance; $15,000,000 procurement; and 
$15,000,000 research, development, test and evaluation.
    Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is 
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees annual DD Form 1416 reports for titles I and II and 
quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports for service 
and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of this act. 
Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with guidance 
specified in the explanatory statement accompanying the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2006. 
The Department shall continue to follow the limitation that 
prior approval reprogrammings are set at either the specified 
dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, 
development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. These 
thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value 
as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 
value of transfers into or out of a military personnel (M-1), 
an operation and maintenance (O-1), a procurement (P-1), or a 
research, development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds 
the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit 
a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 
committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior 
approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special 
interest items are established elsewhere in this report.

                           Funding Increases

    The funding increases outlined in the tables accompanying 
each appropriation account shall be provided only for the 
specific purposes indicated in the tables of Committee 
Recommended Adjustments. The Committee directs that funding 
increases shall be competitively awarded, or provided to 
programs that have received competitive awards in the past.

                  Congressional Special Interest Items

    Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 
items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 
tables detailing Committee Recommended Adjustments or in 
paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' are 
congressional special interest items for the purpose of the 
Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must 
be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as 
specifically addressed elsewhere in this report. In addition, 
section 8006 of this act provides direction on the treatment of 
increases which appear in the tables of the Committee 
Recommended Adjustments, including certain limitations on the 
use of reprogramming authority in relation to these items.

                         Committee Initiatives

    The Committee is pleased that the fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request continues to prioritize investments 
that resource the priorities identified in the 2022 National 
Defense Strategy. The Committee's recommendation builds on 
those proposals, and recommends increases that expand the 
Department of Defense's capability and capacity to confront the 
evolving global threat environment. This includes additional 
funding to improve quality of life for military personnel and 
their families; enhance military training and operational 
readiness; strengthen recruiting, retention and training of the 
Department of Defense acquisition workforce; sustain weapons 
production lines identified by the military services as 
critical; and invest in future critical technologies. Funds are 
delineated in the tables of Committee Recommended Adjustments 
and designated as congressional special interest items for the 
purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414).

                  ADDITIONAL EMERGENCY APPROPRIATIONS

    The Committee recommendation includes $20,800,000,000 in 
additional emergency appropriations, as detailed in the tables 
of Committee Recommended Adjustments, to address significant 
Department of Defense shortfalls. The Committee has worked 
closely with the Department of Defense, its military 
components, and the Combatant Commands in developing its 
recommendation. Many of the recommended additional funds 
address unfunded requirements identified by the commanders of 
the Combatant Commands and chiefs of the military services. 
Other recommendations address emerging national security 
requirements that were not known to the Department of Defense 
at the time of the delivery of the fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget request. These funding priorities include:
  --$2,727,800,000 to address the unfunded priorities of the 
        Commander of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command and for other 
        capabilities relevant to near-peer competition, 
        including $450,000,000 to accelerate offensive space 
        control efforts of the Space Development Agency;
  --$1,755,000,000 for the sustainment of operational and force 
        protection activities in the U.S. Central Command past 
        September 30, 2024, and for other readiness 
        investments;
  --$1,172,057,000 to address anticipated fuel funding 
        shortfalls in fiscal year 2025;
  --$3,445,446,000 to make an additional 500 Air Force aircraft 
        available than would otherwise be available at the 
        requested funding level;
  --$838,660,000 to increase and accelerate the fielding of 
        counter unmanned aerial system capabilities to address 
        the growing and rapidly evolving threat posed by drones 
        to U.S. forces;
  --$781,447,000 for quality of life initiatives for service 
        members and their families, including to accelerate the 
        U.S. Army's implementation of operational deployment 
        pay to recognize the rigors of overseas deployments and 
        to accelerate modernization of Marine Corps barracks to 
        improve the quality of unaccompanied housing for 
        service members;
  --$2,153,500,000 for Navy shipbuilding for select acquisition 
        of battle force ships, including advance procurement 
        funding for a four-ship amphibious ship procurement, as 
        agreed to by the Navy and the shipbuilding industry 
        that will lead to cost savings of approximately 
        $900,000,000 versus buying the ships individually;
  --$2,720,307,000 to revitalize the U.S. defense industrial 
        base, including expansion of solid rocket motor 
        production, raw materials purchases for critical 
        weapons systems, and modernization of Army ammunition 
        plants and Navy shipyards;
  --$1,218,895,000 for air defense, missiles, and other 
        munitions;
  --$478,488,000 for counterterrorism activities, including 
        increases intelligence, surveillance, and 
        reconnaissance and addressing worldwide force 
        protection requirements; and
  --$3,508,400,000 for other targeted investments in air, land, 
        cyber, and space military capabilities.
    The Committee believes that inclusion of these funds is 
necessary in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2025 
for the Armed Forces to have the proper resources to counter 
Russia, deter the People's Republic of China, and continue to 
address threats from Iran and terrorist groups against U.S. 
forces and our allies and partners, consistent with the 2022 
National Defense Strategy.

                               Readiness

    The Committee recommends an additional $2,000,000,000 in 
title VIII of this act to be transferred to the operation and 
maintenance accounts and be divided proportionately among the 
services and the National Guard and reserve components to 
address shortfalls in weapons sustainment, training, and 
operations for which funding was not requested in the fiscal 
year 2025 President's budget request. The funding provided is a 
congressional special interest item. The Secretary of Defense 
and the Service Secretaries are directed to submit a detailed 
spending plan by sub-activity group to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
not less than 30 days prior to the obligation of these funds. 
These transfers may be implemented 30 days after congressional 
notification unless an objection is received from either the 
House or Senate Appropriations Committees.

                               Innovation

    The Department of Defense [DOD] remains rightly focused on 
driving innovation into its acquisition programs and internal 
processes. During the past fiscal year, innovation at the 
Departmental-level has taken on new forms, to include the 
initiation of the Replicator program, the expansion of the 
Defense Innovation Unit [DIU], and further maturation of the 
Rapid Defense Experimentation Reserve [RDER]. The Committee 
continues to view the end goal of defense innovation as 
fielding the most advanced capabilities to operational units at 
scale, thereby strengthening our National defense.
    While innovation within acquisition programs requires 
understanding a range of threats and potential concepts to 
defeat them, the Committee believes that the importance of a 
rigorous understanding of the technical maturity and 
manufacturability of potential material solutions must also be 
key considerations when deciding how to allocate limited 
resources. Similarly, innovation should not create additional 
layers of bureaucratic review, but must instead empower the 
end-users the military services are responsible for manning, 
training, and equipping. In fiscal year 2025, the Committee 
again recommends substantial DOD resources for flexible, 
innovation-focused spending, including more than $2,179,364,000 
in Department-wide and Service funding for the prototyping and 
maturation of promising, early-stage, and commercial 
capabilities. While the Department has made progress in 
coordinating enterprise-wide efforts with the establishment of 
the Defense Innovation Working Group and the Defense Innovation 
Community of Entities, the Committee believes additional action 
is warranted to maximize the impact of the totality of 
Department ``innovation-tagged'' resources, which are managed 
by numerous entities with disparate reporting chains, and which 
may or may not include the Department's acquisition executives.
    In particular, the Committee believes that the DOD's RDER 
initiative could be better positioned to support rapid 
experimentation. The Department characterizes RDER as a process 
through which the Undersecretary of Defense (Research and 
Engineering) assesses military services prototypes' operational 
relevance to the Joint Force through field experimentation. 
Following these experiments, DOD stakeholders then analyze 
collected data to, in part, inform future budgetary decisions. 
However, the Committee notes that RDER has to date not resulted 
in accelerated fielding outcomes. For example, less than one-
third of RDER programs funded in fiscal year 2023 have 
``graduated'' from the program and formally transitioned into 
the Services. Additionally, the majority of these projects will 
lack dedicated Service funding in the fiscal year 2025 
enactment due to lack of transition to the Services. While the 
Committee is supportive of data-driven joint experimentation, 
it is unaware of significant operational improvements derived 
from the RDER funding construct to date. Therefore, the 
Committee recommends slowing the rate of growth requested for 
RDER and other adjustments, as detailed in the tables of 
Committee Recommended Adjustments.
    The Committee recommends full funding for Replicator funds 
requested in the fiscal year 2025 President's budget request. 
During fiscal year 2024, senior Department officials engaged 
extensively with the Committee on the Replicator initiative. In 
response to reporting requirements in the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47), the Department is 
reviewing Replicator system selections to account for the 
doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership, 
personnel, facilities, and policy [DOTMLPF-P] considerations 
associated with the initiative. The Committee believes that 
this comprehensive understanding and plan to address the 
DOTMLPF-P implications are critical to the initiative's success 
and has apparently not yet occurred in full. Additionally, the 
Committee believes that selected programs would benefit from 
the development of robust test and evaluation master plans 
[TEMP] or similar test and evaluation (T&E] plans to ensure 
that concepts as envisioned are technically capable of meeting 
stated objectives. The Committee directs the Director of the 
Defense Innovation Unit to engage with the Department's and 
respective Services' technical leadership as well as the 
Director, Operational Test and Evaluation, to ensure that 
developed T&E plans are adequate, as well as fully resourced. 
Not later than 60 days after the enactment of this act, the 
Deputy Secretary of Defense and the Vice Chairman of the Joint 
Chiefs of Staff shall provide a briefing to the congressional 
defense committees on the DOTMLPF-P and T&E plans for each 
selected Replicator system.
    Additionally, the Committee understands that Replicator 
Tranche Two selections are forthcoming, and that the Department 
may seek congressional action to ensure additional funding for 
Tranche Two systems is included in the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2025. In anticipation of these emerging 
requirements, and in light of the Committee's substantive 
concerns about the lack of results of RDER, the Committee 
recommends reallocating RDER resources into a Rapid Defense 
Innovation Reserve. The intent of this reallocation is to 
enable the Department of Defense to reassess the RDER concept 
and provide the Committee additional information on the most 
effective use of requested funds for fiscal year 2025, which 
may include continuing RDER efforts or accelerating Replicator 
Tranche Two systems, until such time as funds for these systems 
can be aligned in the appropriate appropriations accounts in 
future budget submissions. Not later than October 1, 2024, the 
Secretary of Defense shall brief the congressional defense 
committees on the outcome of this assessment, to include a 
determination of whether the funding proposed in the fiscal 
year 2025 President's budget request would be better allocated 
in support of alternative innovation concepts, to include 
Replicator.
    Notwithstanding the importance of the Department's priority 
innovation initiatives, the Committee also notes that novel 
advancements and integration of existing high-end weapons 
systems remain critical forms of defense innovation. 
Historically, the Strategic Capabilities Office [SCO] has 
primarily focused on this form of innovation, identifying 
instances in which existing Service capabilities can be 
modified to enhance already fielded capabilities. In line with 
past successes of these types of initiatives, the Committee 
recommends an additional $75,000,000 in emergency funding to 
integrate the PATRIOT Missile Segment Enhancement with the 
Aegis Combat System aboard Navy warships.
    The Committee again notes that many of the acquisition 
controls and oversight mechanisms in place within statute and 
regulation are the result of previous instances of financial or 
acquisition mismanagement, unacceptable cost growth, or 
wasteful acquisition strategies that delayed fielding 
timeframes for programs. Innovation alone is not a substitute 
for the sound financial, acquisition, and management best 
practices that are essential to fielding capability to the 
warfighter on time and on budget.

              Department of Defense Acquisition Workforce

    On May 15, 2024, the Committee received testimony from the 
Department of Defense Acquisition Executive and each of the 
Military Service Acquisition Executives to better understand 
factors affecting acquisition outcomes. While the Department of 
Defense's acquisition programs continue to deliver unparalleled 
capabilities to the joint force, these capabilities are all too 
often under-performing, behind schedule, and over budget.
    The Committee confirmed that a robust and well-trained 
acquisition workforce is one of the Department of Defense's 
strongest assets in achieving programmatic goals, and urges 
continued investment in its well-being and growth. The 
Committee remains committed to ensuring that this workforce has 
the capacity, in both personnel and skills, to properly perform 
its mission and recommends funding, as requested, in the 
Services' operation and maintenance, and research, development, 
test and evaluation accounts; as well as in the Department's 
Acquisition Workforce Account and Defense Working Capital 
Funds. Further, the Committee includes an additional 
$200,000,000 for Department acquisition management initiatives 
to enable the workforce to improve oversight capabilities and 
achieve more effective and efficient outcomes for the 
warfighter and taxpayer.
    With the submission of the President's budget request for 
fiscal year 2026, the Committee directs each of the 
Department's acquisition executives to provide a report to the 
congressional defense committees identifying their respective 
acquisition workforce requirements in support of acquisition 
programs included in the Fiscal Year 2026 Future Years Defense 
Program. Further, the Service Financial Managers and 
Comptrollers of the Army, Navy, and Air Force are directed to 
certify, with submission of the fiscal year 2026 President's 
budget request, to the congressional defense committees, that 
these acquisition workforce requirements are fully funded in 
the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request. Finally, in 
order to maintain visibility into and oversight of funding for 
the defense acquisition workforce, these funds are designated 
as congressional special interest items for the purpose of the 
Base for Reprogramming, DD Form 1414.

                     Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii

    The Committee is aware that the requirements for the Next 
Generation Interceptor program no longer necessitate the 
program of record for the Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii [HDR-
H]. The Committee notes that in fiscal year 2021 and 2022, the 
Missile Defense Agency received $208,000,000 in additional 
appropriations to continue production of the HDR-H radar. In 
response to Senate Report 118-81, the congressional defense 
committees were notified on May 9, 2024 that the panels 
procured for HDR-H are being modified in support of Homeland 
Defense Radar-Guam as excess articles under the Federal 
Acquisition Regulation. The Committee notes that funds 
appropriated for the Homeland Defense Radar-Hawaii in fiscal 
year 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022 were specifically 
appropriated for the purpose of the HDR-H program of record 
and, therefore, a change to the purpose and amount of funds 
enacted into law should have been notified in accordance with 
section 8005 of applicable Department of Defense Appropriations 
Acts. Therefore, the Committee directs the Comptroller General 
of the United States to provide a legal opinion to the Defense 
Appropriations Subcommittees of the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
evaluating the Missile Defense Agency's compliance with all 
applicable appropriations law.

            Guam Enhanced Integrated Air and Missile Defense

    The fiscal year 2025 President's budget request includes 
$1,494,555,000 to deliver enhanced integrated air and missile 
defense of Guam. The Committee recognizes the investment in 
advanced radar systems and interceptors contribute to a layered 
defense network while enhancing the overall security 
architecture against emerging threats in the region, and 
therefore includes an additional $181,300,000 in emergency 
funding for the Missile Defense Agency [MDA] to accelerate 
deployment of the Guam Defense System [GDS].
    The Committee is encouraged by the progress of the GDS 
Joint Executive Program Office in support of a robust missile 
defense posture on Guam. The Committee notes the development of 
architecture requirements, maturation of weapon system 
technology, identification of a designated lead for specific 
programs of record, coordination of test events, and 
synchronization and fielding of systems with required 
construction facilities will continue to require the sustained 
commitment and attention of Department of Defense senior 
leadership.
    The Committee recognizes the challenges posed by a threat-
informed timeline for meeting initial operating capability of 
GDS. However, the presentation of information provided in the 
Department of the Army's fiscal year 2025 President's budget 
request is limited, and in some cases, it has been consolidated 
into single cost elements, limiting the ability of the 
Committee to clearly identify the full scope of funding that 
has been requested for the defense of Guam. Moreover, there is 
no clear distinction of how these funds requested for GDS are 
dissimilar from previously funded system enhancements, such as 
for the battle command system architecture and system 
survivability enhancements. The Committee notes that additional 
detail and justification is needed in future budget materials 
to provide congressional defense committees with the confidence 
that the funds being requested are tied to established 
requirements, a validated acquisition strategy, an identified 
sustainment strategy, and an operational employment plan.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Army 
and the Director of MDA to provide a briefing not later than 90 
days after enactment of this act, and quarterly updates 
thereafter, to the congressional defense committees on the 
status of the funds that have been appropriated, to include 
supplemental funding. The update shall include the status of 
each of the following: (1) a consolidated presentation of all 
Department of Defense funding for GDS, to include obligation 
and expenditure data, (2) the acquisition development and 
schedule of anticipated weapon systems delivery, (3) the 
sequencing of integrated test events between the military 
departments and MDA, and (4) justification for any new 
investments necessary to keep pace with advanced threats.

             Improving Cooperation With Partners and Allies

    The Department of Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 
2024 (Public Law 118-47) included $100,000,000 for the United 
States Africa Command [USAFRICOM] and the United States 
Southern Command [USSOUTHCOM], in addition to $200,000,000 
included in the Defense Appropriations Act, 2023 (Public Law 
117-328), to expand cooperation, share information, to train 
and ultimately improve the abilities of our partner nations in 
their specific areas of responsibility. The Committee maintains 
the belief that a misconception exists that USAFRICOM and 
USSOUTHCOM mission sets revolve solely around counter-terrorism 
and counter-drug activities. In reality, both combatant 
commands are immersed in peer-competition with the People's 
Republic of China [PRC] with direct implications for our 
Nation's overall security posture: The PRC's first overseas 
base in Djibouti allows for power projection in the Horn of 
Africa and Indian Ocean. In South America, the PRC has built a 
space ground station in Argentina that can monitor the United 
States' space assets. The PRC has also secured rights to build 
infrastructure near the Straits of Magellan, and is competing 
in projects related to the Panama Canal, both key chokepoints 
for our Navy. In both commands, so-called Chinese fishing 
vessels have illegally and systematically violated sovereign 
territory through the use of gray zone pressure tactics.
    Additionally, illegal mining and resource acquisition by 
Chinese-owned entities is a growing concern. While the 
Department's force management process excels at meeting 
immediate and pressing warfighting needs, the Committee remains 
concerned that underinvestment in these key geographic areas 
fails to meet the Nation's long-term security needs. The 
Committee notes that today's security situation has resulted in 
the systematic de-prioritization of USAFRICOM and USSOUTHCOM 
with respect to force allocation and resources by the 
Department. As a result, the Committee reStates its belief that 
the Department of Defense is underfunded in these regions.
    The Committee believes there are unrealized opportunities 
to increase our military cooperation and improve the 
capabilities of our partners in these regions. Therefore, the 
Committee recommends an additional $400,000,000, only for the 
USSOUTHCOM and USAFRICOM areas of operation, to improve the 
capabilities of its allies and partners in their respective 
regions. This includes training partner forces, joint 
exercises, purchasing equipment, intelligence activities, 
preventing violence and stabilizing conflict-affected areas, 
and other security cooperation activities as determined by the 
Commander, USSOUTHCOM and Commander, USAFRICOM. The Committee 
directs that none of these funds may be obligated or expended 
until the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller), in 
coordination with Commander, USSOUTHCOM and Commander, 
USAFRICOM presents an execution plan to the congressional 
defense committees. Further, the Committee notes that while 
some of these activities may be undertaken through title 10 
United States Code section 333, the Commander, AFRICOM and 
Commander, SOUTHCOM may propose projects utilizing any existing 
authorities.

                          Joint Strike Fighter

    The Committee is aware of significant delays to the Joint 
Strike Fighter's Technology Refresh 3 (TR-3) program, which led 
to an extended stoppage in government acceptance of aircraft 
over the past year. Moreover, the Committee understands that it 
will take a significant period of time to deliver the 
substantial quantity of parked aircraft from a contractor site 
to military installations, further complicating the balance of 
completing delivery of previously funded aircraft with the 
request for additional quantities in fiscal year 2025. 
Additionally, the Committee notes that the aircraft that the 
Department of Defense will accept within the coming months will 
not be fully capable, and will require additional software 
maturation to reach the functionality of previously delivered 
aircraft, raising significant questions about the effectiveness 
of the TR-3 program.
    While acknowledging that the Joint Strike Fighter program 
is comprised of a historically complex supply chain and must 
accommodate a diverse set of stakeholders, the Committee 
believes the program must adhere more closely to sound 
acquisition fundamentals and develop specific plans to 
stabilize cost, schedule, and performance.
    Further, the Committee is deeply concerned by the lack of 
clarity in contracting and acquisition of the fiscal year 2024 
appropriated and fiscal year 2025 requested aircraft. The 
Committee notes that the Joint Program Office and the prime 
contractor remain unable to agree upon aircraft unit cost for 
Lots 18 and 19.
    Therefore, while the Committee recommends funding for the 
number of aircraft in the fiscal year 2025 President's budget 
request, the Committee also recommends several targeted 
reductions, based on unearned award fees due to aircraft 
delivery delays, prior-year actual spending on efforts such as 
non-recurring engineering, and delivery delays associated with 
TR-3 aircraft modifications.

                      United States Cyber Command

    The Committee recommends $2,739,440,000 for United States 
Cyber Command [USCYBERCOM] in fiscal year 2025, $319,129,000 
above the fiscal year 2024 enacted level. The Committee 
commends USCYBERCOM for significant improvements in 
justification materials associated with its fiscal year 2024 
President's budget request, and directs the Commander, 
USCYBERCOM to consult with the Committees on Appropriations of 
the House of Representatives and the Senate not later than 90 
days after the enactment of this act on continued refinement of 
its budget justification materials. The Committee also supports 
the consolidation of cyber mission force resources under 
USCYBERCOM and notes that these significant increases are 
properly focused on readiness and the expansion of the 
financial management staff necessary to fully implement the 
planning, programming, budgeting, and execution processes 
associated with enhanced budget control provided by Congress.
    The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget request includes a request to include the Cyber 
Operations Technology Support program in the Software and 
Digital Technology Pilot Program within Research, Development, 
Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide budget activity 08. While the 
Committee believes that this program is too hardware centric to 
justify its inclusion in the Software and Digital Technology 
Pilot Program in fiscal year 2025, it does recognize that 
certain software centric programs within USCYBERCOM would 
potentially benefit and will consider future recommendations on 
the merits of each proposal.

         Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution Reform

    The Committee notes that the Commission on Planning, 
Programming, Budgeting, and Execution [PPBE] Reform, mandated 
by section 1004 of the fiscal year 2022 National Defense 
Authorization Act (Public Law 117-81), submitted its final 
report in March 2024. The report is the culmination of an end-
to-end review of the PPBE process and includes 28 
recommendations aligned across five categories: (1) Improve the 
Alignments of Budgets to Strategy; (2) Foster Innovation and 
Adaptability; (3) Strengthen Relationships Between DoD and 
Congress; (4) Modernize Business Systems and Data Analytics; 
and (5) Strengthen the Capability of the Resourcing Workforce.
    The Committee continues to support the language in the 
Joint Explanatory Statement [JES] accompanying the Department 
of Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47), which 
described the many existing flexible mechanisms within the 
current appropriations process available to the Department 
through the effective use of its own internal guidelines, 
regulations, and communication with Congress.
    Subsequent to the publication of the commission's report, 
the Department of Defense issued implementation guidance in 
December 2023 regarding 13 near-term recommendations that the 
Department can implement without any changes in statute or 
other congressional action. The Committee commends the 
Department for its swift action, and supports each of these 
recommendation, which include improving information sharing 
with the Congress; consolidating business systems; reviewing 
and consolidating budget line items; improving recruiting and 
retention of acquisition and financial management 
professionals; improving financial workforce training; and 
improving the analytical capabilities of the PPBE workforce. 
The Committee also supports the establishment of an internal 
DOD Task Force that would work with Congress to consider, and 
as appropriate implement, the recommendations of the PPBE 
Commission, as proposed in S. 4638, the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025, as reported.
    The Committee also notes that some of the PPBE 
recommendations propose substantial changes to the 
appropriations structure and/or changes to law without a 
sufficient rationale and without fully accounting for the 
justification for why such structure was established in the 
first place. Such is the case in the commission's 
recommendations to establish milestone-based reprogramming 
authority; increase the caps on existing authorities; and 
reduce notification requirements for new start reprogramming 
actions.
    With respect to proposals to increase reprogramming 
threshold amounts, the Committee encourages the Department to 
heed the Commission's alternative recommendations focused on 
streamlining the Department's extensive internal preparation 
and review process before a reprogramming request even reaches 
the Committee. The Committee notes the relatively expeditious 
nature in which reprogrammings are processed by the Congress 
once they are delivered. All four congressional defense 
committees process year-end reprogramming actions in two weeks 
or less 92 percent of the time, and 100 percent of the time 
prior to the end of the fiscal year.
    Further, the Committee notes that tens-of-billions of 
dollars in transfer authority has gone unused. Given that the 
Department is not utilizing the full extent of existing 
transfer authority and that action can be taken swiftly when 
the Department does communicate with Congress, the Committee 
questions what increasing the reprogramming limits again will 
accomplish other than decreasing the number of notifications to 
the Congress and reducing oversight. Further, the Committee 
notes that the assumption that reprogramming authority 
thresholds should be tied in some way to the total budget 
authority of an agency fails to recognize that the unit cost of 
a weapon system is not tied to a program office's total budget. 
Therefore, the Committee maintains the below threshold 
reprogramming authorities enacted into law in fiscal year 2024.
    Regarding proposals for new start programs, the 
commission's recommendations focus on reducing congressional 
notifications and increasing dollar threshold requirements, 
intimating that the funding amount of a new start program is 
indicative of its total life-cycle cost or the viability of a 
new start. Congress has a duty to ensure that resources are 
devoted to programs that have realistic requirements, 
acquisition plans, cost assessments and sufficient technical 
maturity. The life-cycle costs that may come with a new program 
for many years into the future require vigorous review prior to 
starting such a program. Further, the Committee reiterates that 
82 percent of new starts were approved by the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
in previous years.
    The Committee also notes that the commission recommends a 
single color of appropriations, citing an example from the F-35 
Joint Program Office's concurrent development and procurement 
as rationale, stating that, ``concurrency (overlap of 
development and procurement) is the new norm in weapon system 
fielding.'' The Committee recognizes that some programs undergo 
concurrent development and procurement for various reasons, 
including to improve capabilities of an existing platform while 
still procuring older versions. However, excessive concurrency 
should generally be avoided for new weapons systems because of 
the cascading poor performance, delays, and cost growth that 
have also become norms when this occurs. For example, the Joint 
Strike Fighter program's management of the TR-3 and block four 
upgrade utilized concurrent development and procurement 
efforts. This has resulted in repeated development delays, 
production lot changes, increased costs, and a substantial 
quantity of aircraft unfit for acceptance by the Department. A 
single color of money could compound that problem by decreasing 
the time to recognize and financially control issues as they 
occur, and to provide updates to the congressional defense 
committees in a timely manner.
    The Committee continues to take steps to be responsive to 
the emergent needs of the Department of Defense, particularly 
in the areas of innovation, as stated elsewhere in this act. In 
addition, the Committee has enacted new legislation in the 
Environmental Restoration accounts, as requested by the 
Department, to allow the use of proceeds garnered from 
litigation to be applied toward the cleanup of perfluoroalkyl 
and polyfluoroalkyl substances that impact military 
installations and surrounding communities. The Committee also 
makes several targeted adjustments to the appropriations 
accounts to address emergent changes in programs that 
materialized after the president's budget request was submitted 
to Congress, including: the realignment of funding to support 
increased test rounds for the Conventional Prompt Strike 
program; increased testing resources for the Long Range 
Hypersonic Weapon; the realignment of resources to mitigate 
shortfalls within the Global Positioning System's [GPS] 
Operational Control Segment; realignments to the Resilient GPS 
program initiated in fiscal year 2024 under the newly 
authorized ``Quickstart'' authority; realignment of procurement 
funding to advance procurement due to Intercontinental 
Ballistic Missile Fuze Modernization delays; Counter-Unmanned 
Aerial Systems addressed elsewhere in this act; realignments to 
implement V-22 safety initiatives, and 5G resourcing technical 
adjustments. These realignments demonstrate how the 
appropriation process can effectively meeting the intent of 
commission recommendations consistent with the constitutionally 
mandated responsibilities of Congress.
    Additionally, in the areas of budget line item 
consolidation, the Committee once again worked with the 
Department, the Army, and the Defense Advanced Research 
Projects Agency to collaboratively consolidate line items. 
These adjustments are discussed in further detail elsewhere in 
this act. Further, the Committee notes that in Title IV of this 
act, funding for the Department's primary data and analytics 
platform, Advanced Analytics [Advana], has been transferred to 
the budget activity eight software pilot program in the 
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide 
account, for more flexible and adaptable execution, consistent 
with the commission's recommendations. The Committee believes 
this to be an example of diligent collaboration between the 
Department and the Committee to address solutions to problems.
    The Committee acknowledges the recommendations on the 
impact of continuing resolutions [CR] and the desire to 
increase flexibility under CRs. The difficulty of operating 
under a CR and the inefficiencies it causes and delays to 
programs underscores the importance of Congress enacting 
appropriations on-time.
    The last and most important recommendation to highlight is 
the commission's recommendation for the Department of Defense 
to increase effective communication with the Congress. 
Effective communication contributes to an appropriations 
process where the Department can affect change to its budget 
request to account for fact-of-life updates and provide 
transparent insight into the status of programs. However, the 
Committee notes that significant communication roadblocks still 
exist in the Department. As an example, routine Questions for 
the Record submitted by Senators who are members of the 
Committee have taken the Office of the Secretary of Defense and 
military services months to respond to, and some are still 
outstanding, as are numerous reports mandated in previous 
appropriations laws.
    The Committee supports the intent of most of the PPBE 
commission's recommendations and believes that improving 
resource management processes are needed. Mindful of the 
lessons learned that have led to current processes, the 
Committee cautions against enacting blanket recommendations to 
alter specific appropriations activities without clear 
measurable outcomes or quantitative data to justify the 
proposed changes. Improving acquisition and speed to execute is 
important, however the end goal should always be to field the 
most advanced capabilities to the warfighter at scale. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 
maintain the current appropriations structure in the fiscal 
year 2026 President's budget request.

                      Drinking Water Contamination

    The Committee remains concerned for the health and safety 
of individuals affected by per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances 
[PFAS] at military installations and in surrounding 
communities, particularly in areas where PFAS persists in 
groundwater aquifers, which are crucial sources of drinking 
water. Therefore, the Committee recommends an additional 
$129,618,000 over the fiscal year 2025 President's budget 
request of $853,226,000 in the operation and maintenance, 
environmental restoration, and research and development 
accounts for the Department of Defense and the military 
services to remediate drinking water contaminated by PFAS and 
for other related activities. The Committee directs the Service 
Secretaries to provide a spend plan to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
for these additional funds not later than 90 days after 
enactment of this act. The Committee further directs the 
Secretary of Defense and the Service Secretaries to include 
separate budget justification materials on PFAS remediation and 
aqueous film forming removal and disposal activities to the 
congressional defense committees not later than 30 days after 
the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request is delivered to 
Congress that includes an updated assessment of the entire 
funding requirement for those known costs.
    In addition, the Committee is encouraged by the Department 
of Defense's recent efforts to collaborate with communities 
impacted by PFAS, and acknowledges the emergence of 
collaborative regional approaches to address this issue. The 
Committee commends the Department of Defense for collaborating 
with localities, where appropriate, on municipal drinking water 
projects in PFAS-impacted areas around installations. Further, 
the Committee notes the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's 
first-ever national drinking water standard for PFAS. The 
Committee urges the Department of Defense to sustain its 
engagement with PFAS-affected communities and to collaborate 
directly with localities to develop prompt and potentially 
innovative solutions to mitigate the impact of PFAS 
contamination on drinking water.

                    Suicide Prevention and Response

    The Committee recommendation fully funds the fiscal year 
2025 President's budget request of $261,200,000 for suicide 
prevention and response, which supports continued 
implementation of the recommendations of the Suicide Prevention 
and Response Independent Review Committee [SPRIRC]. Further, 
the Committee provides an additional $2,000,000 for suicide 
prevention research focusing on rural, remote, isolated 
locations outside the continental United States, and designates 
suicide prevention as a research area within the 
Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs' Peer-
Reviewed Medical Research Program. The Committee directs the 
Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees not later than 60 days after enactment of 
this act providing an update on the implementation of the 
SPRIRC's recommendations.

   Investigation Into the Suspected Suicide of SFC Robert R. Card II

    The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army, in 
coordination with the Commanding General, United States Army 
Reserve Command, and the Director of the Defense Health Agency, 
to provide a briefing to the Committees on Appropriations of 
the House of Representatives and the Senate not later than 90 
days after enactment of this act, and quarterly thereafter, on 
the implementation of the recommendations provided pursuant to 
the Army Regulation 15-6 Investigation into the Suspected 
Suicide of SFC Robert R. Card II and the Army Inspector 
General's subsequent independent review.

                     Budget Justification Materials

    The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget request included both baseline and contingency 
operations funding within the baseline budget request. The 
Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) 
and the Assistant Secretaries of the Army, Navy, and Air Force 
(Financial Management and Comptroller) to continue to account 
for both baseline and contingency operations funding in the 
fiscal year 2026 President's budget request exhibits for all 
appropriations.
    Further, the Committee commends the Department for the 
improvements in the budget materials made over the past several 
years, particularly in the case of cross-cutting issues that 
impact multiple appropriations and line items. The Committee is 
concerned, however, that some exhibits lacked information by 
fiscal year to fully analyze the Department's budget request. 
To better inform the congressional review of future budget 
requests, the Committee directs that prior year, current year, 
and budget year data be included in the following justification 
materials: the Defense Force Structure Changes exhibit (this 
shall continue to include funding levels for each fiscal year 
in the Future Years Defense Program as well); the European 
Deterrence Initiative exhibit; and the Pacific Deterrence 
Initiative exhibit.

                Complete and Timely Financial Reporting

    As specified in the Joint Explanatory Statement 
accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2023 
(Public Law 117-328), the Undersecretary of Defense 
(Comptroller) is directed to continue to provide the 
congressional defense committees comprehensive obligation and 
execution data, including expenditure data for funds with a 
tenure longer than 1 year.

     Appropriations for Department of Defense-Identified Unfunded 
                              Requirements

    In accordance with Title 10, United States Code, Section 
222(a) the military services and combatant commands submitted 
to the congressional defense appropriations committees unfunded 
mission requirements in excess of $22,600,000,000 with 
submission of the fiscal year 2025 President's budget request. 
As in previous years, the Committee has reviewed these 
requests, their underlying requirements, costs, and schedules, 
and recommends additional appropriations in fiscal year 2025 to 
address these shortfalls, as identified in the tables of 
Committee Recommended Adjustments in this report.
    The Committee reiterates direction included in the Joint 
Explanatory Statement accompanying the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2024, and directs that any submission of 
unfunded requirements by the military services, defense 
agencies, and combatant commands with the fiscal year 2026 
President's budget request be accompanied by updated 
requirements and programmatic and execution plans for unfunded 
requirements that received appropriations in fiscal years 2024 
and 2025. Further, the Committee directs the Assistant 
Secretaries (Financial Management and Comptroller) for the Air 
Force, Navy, and Army to incorporate in the congressional 
budget brief templates distinct programmatic and execution data 
for appropriations provided in the previous three fiscal years 
for unfunded requirements pertaining to the program/effort.

            Department of the Air Force Budgeting Practices

    The Secretary of the Air Force has publicly cited current 
and projected out-year budget limitations as a barrier to Air 
Force adoption of critical future technologies. The Committee 
has recommended substantial additional funding to address these 
limitations and is aware of the many modernization demands 
facing the Air Force, to include the Sentinel program, the B-21 
Raider, and the Next Generation Air Dominance Family of Systems 
portfolio. The Committee finds that the Air Force has not 
optimized its processes for allocating resources, resulting in 
the submission of budget requests with billions of dollars in 
unexecutable and unjustified funds. For example, the 
Committee's recommendation includes more than $1,700,000,000 in 
reductions to the ``Aircraft Procurement, Air Force'' 
appropriation and $1,400,000,000 in reductions to the 
``Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force'' 
appropriation. In total, these reductions represent significant 
buying power that could have been aligned in support of other 
Air Force priorities.
    Based on the Committee's review of budget justification 
documents and engagements with acquisition officials, it is 
apparent that the Air Force lacks mechanisms to update its 
budget requests in a timely fashion based on fact-of-life 
changes within its programs' acquisition lifecycles; robust 
processes to link budget requests to overall strategy; and 
adequate quality controls to ensure requests are accurate, 
current, and well justified. As noted in the Joint Explanatory 
Statement accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations 
Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47), over fiscal year 2023 and 2024, 
the Department of the Air Force requested more than 
$6,000,000,000 in technical adjustments to the President's 
budget request, and for fiscal year 2025 the Air Force has 
requested nearly $620,000,000 in such adjustments. In contrast, 
the Committee finds that other military services have developed 
internal processes to iteratively optimize their budget 
requests prior to final submission of the President's budget 
request, resulting in the submission of a more executable 
request.
    The Committee notes that Air Force program officials often 
comment that their budget allocation is set the summer prior to 
the submission of the President's budget request in order to 
meet the Department of Defense's fall review process. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air 
Force, in conjunction with the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Comptroller) to submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees, not later than 60 days after the enactment of this 
act, outlining proposed process improvements to enhance the 
quality of the Department of the Air Force's budget submission 
beginning with the fiscal year 2027 budget request.

                         Polar Airlift Aircraft

    The Committee notes the importance of polar tactical 
airlift capabilities for Arctic and Antarctic operations. 
Further, the Committee notes that the study conducted by the 
Secretary of the Air Force in coordination with the Commander, 
U.S. Northern Command, and Director, Air National Guard, titled 
``Fiscal Year 2023 LC-130 Report,'' identifies improvements 
made in recent years to the LC-130H fleet currently conducting 
this mission. The study also notes that continual modernization 
investments and performance enhancements will ensure the 
relevance and viability of this aircraft and its future 
mission. However, the Committee understands that this report 
may not fully take into account the operational activity of 
these aircraft.
    Congress included additional funds in the Department of 
Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47) in the 
amount of $5,000,000 for non-recurring engineering [NRE] for 
polar airlift aircraft. To ensure these efforts are fully 
funded, the Committee recommends an additional $29,000,000 in 
fiscal year 2025 only for the purpose of performing NRE efforts 
in support of ski engineering and modification kits for the LC-
130J aircraft. Additionally, to accelerate the recapitalization 
of the aging LC-130H fleet, the Committee recommends an 
additional $200,000,000 for procurement of an initial LC-130J 
aircraft and components. The Assistant Secretary of the Air 
Force (Acquisition, Technology and Logistics) is directed to 
provide to the congressional defense committees, not later than 
90 days after enactment of this act, a spend plan for the 
additional resources.

    Budget or Appropriations Liaison Support to the Senate Defense 
                      Appropriations Subcommittee

    The Committee again retains a provision in title II of this 
act from previous years that prohibits the use of funds in this 
act to plan or implement the consolidation of a budget or 
appropriations liaison office of the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense, the office of the Secretary of a military department, 
or the Service headquarters of one of the Armed Forces into a 
legislative affairs or legislative liaison office. The Senate 
Defense Appropriations Subcommittee relies heavily on these 
offices to conduct its oversight responsibilities and make 
funding recommendations for the Department of Defense.
    The Committee notes that while the separate offices of 
legislative affairs within the Office of the Secretary of 
Defense and the military departments offer assistance to the 
authorizing committees and individual members of the Congress, 
such assistance is provided on a parallel and separate track 
from the assistance provided to this Committee and its members 
by the budget or appropriations liaison office of the Office of 
the Secretary of Defense, the office of the Secretary of a 
military department, or the Service headquarters of one of the 
Armed Forces. As the offices of legislative affairs do not 
possess the expertise and direct relationship to the Financial 
Management and Comptroller organizations, which are essential 
to the effective communication between the Department and the 
Committees on Appropriations, it is critical that the budget or 
appropriations liaison offices remain independent from the 
legislative liaison offices, and retain the authority to 
respond directly and promptly with the information required by 
the Committee and its members.
    In addition, the Committee is concerned by the apparent 
increasing establishment of positions within the Department of 
Defense for additional congressional advisors that supplant the 
budget or appropriations liaison offices. The Committee is 
concerned that this negatively impacts the ability of these 
liaison offices to exercise their responsibility towards the 
Committee.

                          Confucius Institutes

    The Committee notes that the Secretary of Defense has not 
yet provided the report required under this heading in the 
explanatory statement accompanying Public Law 118-47, which was 
due to the congressional defense committees not later than June 
21, 2024. Accordingly, the Committee directs that, of the funds 
appropriated by this act under the heading ``Operation and 
Maintenance, Defense-Wide'', $1,000,000 of the recommended 
funding for the Undersecretary of Defense (Research and 
Engineering) may not be obligated until the Secretary of 
Defense provides the required report to the congressional 
defense committees.

                 Aqueous Film Forming Foam Destruction

    The Committee is aware that the Department of Defense plans 
to update its guidance for implementing the Environmental 
Protection Agency's Interim Guidance on the destruction and 
disposal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances [PFAS] and 
materials containing PFAS. The Committee directs the Secretary 
of Defense to coordinate with the Administrator of the 
Environmental Protection Agency to ensure that the guidance 
facilitates use of emerging technologies, as appropriate, such 
as supercritical water oxidation that destroy PFAS without the 
release of harmful byproducts. The Committee notes its 
historical strong support for aqueous film forming foam [AFFF] 
removal and directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a 
report to the congressional defense committees by October 30, 
2024 on the impact of the proposed updated guidance of ongoing 
efforts for AFFF removal.

                       Lifesaving Safety Stations

    The Committee is aware of the General Services 
Administration's Bulletin FMR C-2024-01, ``Safety Station 
Program Guidelines in Federal Facilities.'' The Committee 
directs the Secretary of Defense to provide the congressional 
defense committees with a briefing, not later than 60 days 
after enactment of this act, on the Department of Defense's 
progress implementing these guidelines to establish automated 
external defibrillator, opioid reversal agents, and hemorrhagic 
control programs.

       Reporting Requirement for Unit Reallocation Considerations

    The Committee recognizes that the Service Secretaries and 
Chief of the National Guard Bureau continue to seek 
opportunities to divest missions and units that lack 
requirements or are excess to capacity. The Committee notes 
that some of these units may be available for reallocation 
instead of full divestment, particularly within the National 
Guard. The Committee directs the Chief of the National Guard 
Bureau to provide a report to the congressional defense 
committees, not less than 90 days after the enactment of this 
act, detailing the factors taken into consideration when 
determining the reallocation of units identified for 
divestment. The Chief of the National Guard Bureau is 
encouraged to include operational tempo of a State's National 
Guard as a metric for determining if reallocation of units to 
that state is needed to meet state and National missions.

                Supporting the U.S.-Philippines Alliance

    The Committee reaffirms the strong alliance between the 
United States and the Philippines during a time of increasing 
aggression by the People's Republic of China in the South China 
Sea and in the Philippines' exclusive economic zone. The 
Committee commends recent actions taken by the Department of 
Defense to further enhance and support deterrence efforts by 
the Philippines and recognizes the importance of additional 
infrastructure investments that are necessary to support the 
movement and operation of the military forces of the 
Philippines and United States in the event of a conflict. 
Accordingly, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 
provide a report to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 180 days after the enactment of this act, detailing 
the funding required to enhance and harden identified mission 
critical military infrastructure in the Philippines.

           Enhanced Oversight of Certain Contracts and Grants

    The Committee is concerned about research activities funded 
by the Department of Defense [DOD] that could benefit Chinese 
defense institutions. The Committee notes that the Department 
of Defense Inspector General [DODIG] and the Comptroller 
General of the United States have identified shortcomings in 
U.S. government systems used to track contracts and grants that 
inhibit the oversight of the Congress, DODIG, and the 
Government Accountability Office into research activities 
funded by the Department of Defense that could benefit Chinese 
defense entities. Therefore, the Committee directs the 
Secretary of Defense to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees, not later than 90 days after the enactment 
of this act, on corrective actions taken by the Department of 
Defense to address such shortcomings. The report shall also 
identify research funded by the Department in the last three 
fiscal years that involves entities of the People's Republic of 
China [PRC], the funding agency, the type of funding, which PRC 
entities were involved, the type of research project, 
publication, or other funding associated with DOD funding 
sources, the amount awarded, and the justification for the 
funding. The report shall also address what restrictions, if 
any, are placed upon the Department's basic research awards to 
performers with research ties to Chinese defense entities, and 
what mechanisms, if any, exist to mitigate potential 
counterintelligence concerns. The report shall be submitted in 
an unclassified form, but may include a classified annex.

         Procurement of Seafood Products Made With Forced Labor

    The Committee directs the Inspector General of the 
Department of Defense to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees, no later than 180 days after enactment of 
this act, assessing the extent to which the Department has 
policies and procedures in place to ensure that the food the 
Department procures does not include seafood prohibited under 
the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (Public Law 117-78) and 
section 321 of the Countering America's Adversaries Through 
Sanctions Act (Public Law 115-44).

                                TITLE I

                           MILITARY PERSONNEL

    Funds appropriated under this title provide the resources 
required for basic pay, retired pay accrual, employers' 
contribution for Social Security taxes, basic allowance for 
subsistence, basic allowance for housing, basic needs 
allowance, special and incentive pays, permanent change of 
station travel, and other personnel costs for uniformed members 
of the Armed Forces.
    The President's fiscal year 2025 budget requests a total of 
$181,880,539,000 for military personnel appropriations. This 
request funds an active component end strength of 1,276,700 and 
a reserve component end strength of 765,700.

                      SUMMARY OF COMMITTEE ACTION

    The Committee recommends military personnel appropriations 
totaling $180,667,384,000 for fiscal year 2025, of which 
$135,000,000 is designated as being for an emergency 
requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced 
Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985. This is 
$1,213,155,000 below the budget estimate.
    Committee recommended military personnel appropriations for 
fiscal year 2025 are summarized below:

         Reprogramming Guidance for Military Personnel Accounts

    The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit 
the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) for each of the 
fiscal year 2025 appropriation accounts not later than 60 days 
after the enactment of this act. The Secretary of Defense is 
prohibited from executing any reprogramming or transfer of 
funds for any purpose other than originally appropriated until 
the aforementioned report is submitted to the congressional 
defense committees. The Committee directs the Secretary of 
Defense to use the normal prior approval reprogramming 
procedures to transfer funds in the services' military 
personnel accounts between M-1 budget activities, or between 
subactivities in the case of the reserve component, in excess 
of $15,000,000.

               Military Personnel Special Interest Items

    Items for which additional funds have been provided or have 
been specifically reduced as shown in the project level tables 
or in paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' 
in this report are congressional special interest items for the 
purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of 
these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated 
amount as specifically addressed in the Committee report. Below 
threshold reprogrammings may not be used to either restore or 
reduce funding from congressional special interest items as 
identified on the DD Form 1414.

                      Military Personnel Overview

    Uniformed Members of the Armed Forces.--The Committee 
recognizes the many sacrifices made by servicemembers in 
defending our Nation at home and abroad, as well as those made 
by their military families. In further recognition and support 
to servicemembers and their families, the Committee's 
recommendation fully funds the 4.5 percent military pay raise 
as requested in the fiscal year 2025 President's budget 
request. The Committee recommendation also fully funds basic 
allowance for subsistence, basic allowance for housing, and 
basic needs allowance. Finally, the Committee recommendation 
fully funds the operation, renovation, and repair of child 
development centers and supports full-day pre-kindergarten 
requested in the fiscal year 2025 President's budget request to 
expand access to child care for members of the armed forces. 
The Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Comptroller) to notify the Committees on Appropriations of the 
House of Representatives and Senate if additional funding is 
required for these efforts based on projected shortfalls.
    Junior Enlisted Pay.--The Committee recommendation includes 
$148,000,000 to implement the junior enlisted pay increase in 
S. 4638, the National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 
2025, as reported, that provides a 5.5 percent pay raise for 
enlisted personnel in the rank of E1 through E3. This is a 1 
percent increase over the fiscal year 2025 President's budget 
request. The Committee notes that while retention goals for 
servicemembers are largely being met, persistent recruiting 
challenges continue to affect the military services' end 
strengths. Accordingly, the additional recommended funding is 
intended to support the military services in their effort to 
enlist high-quality recruits. Further, the Committee directs 
the Secretary of Defense to brief the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
on the recommendations of the 14th Quadrennial Review of 
Military Compensation not later than 30 days after the final 
report is complete.
    Basic Needs Allowance.--The Committee recommends full 
funding of the fiscal year 2025 President's budget request for 
the basic needs allowance [BNA]. However, the Committee notes 
that this level of funding may be above amounts required to 
meet the needs of eligible servicemembers and their families. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in 
coordination with the Service Secretaries, to use any excess 
funding toward other incentives for recruiting and retention 
including those recommended by the 14th Quadrennial Review of 
Military Compensation. The Committee further directs the 
Service Secretaries to provide a report to the congressional 
defense committees, not later than 60 days after enactment of 
this act, on the execution of funding for BNA and a detailed 
spend plan for any excess funding. The Committee also directs 
the Assistant Secretaries (Financial Management and 
Comptroller) for the Army, Navy and Air Force to provide 
execution data on BNA in its quarterly briefings to the 
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives 
and the Senate.
    Strength Reporting.--The Committee directs the Service 
Secretaries to provide monthly strength reports for all 
components to the congressional defense committees beginning 
not later than 30 days after enactment of this act. The first 
report shall provide actual baseline end strength for officer, 
enlisted, and cadet personnel, and the total component. The 
second report shall provide the end of year projection for 
average strength for officer, enlisted, and cadet personnel 
using the formula in the Department of Defense Financial 
Management Regulation Volume 2A, Chapter Two. For the active 
components, this report shall break out average strength data 
by base and direct war and enduring costs, and differentiate 
between the active and reserve components. It should also 
include the actuals and projections compared to the fiscal year 
2025 budget request.
    Reserve Component Budget Reporting.--The Committee 
continues its requirement for the Department of Defense to 
provide a semi-annual detailed report to the congressional 
defense committees showing transfers between subactivities 
within the military personnel appropriation. Reports shall be 
submitted not later than 30 days following the end of the 
second quarter and 30 days following the end of the fiscal 
year.
    Space Force Personnel Management.--The Committee directs 
the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Financial Management 
and Comptroller) to provide quarterly reports to the 
congressional defense committees on actions taken to implement 
title 17 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2024 (Public Law 118-31) and section 515 of S. 4638, the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025, if 
enacted. Further, should a realignment of funds be required to 
implement these authorities, the Committee directs the Under 
Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) to use normal prior approval 
reprogramming procedures in accordance with section 8005.
    In addition, the Committee notes that the Assistant 
Secretary of the Air Force (Financial Management and 
Comptroller) continues to manually track expenditures for the 
Space Force's military personnel appropriation because the 
Defense Joint Military Pay System does not have a service code 
for the Space Force. As a result, a line of accounting 
reclassification is required to move expenditures from the Air 
Force active component military personnel appropriation account 
to the Space Force military personnel appropriation account 
until the new Air Force Integrated Personnel and Pay System 
[AFIPPS] is fully deployed in January 2026. The Committee is 
concerned that this manual financial accounting process will 
inevitably lead to human error as the end strength of the Space 
Force continues to grow and Airmen from the Department of the 
Air Force reserve components may be transferred to the Space 
Force. Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the 
Air Force to provide the congressional defense committees 
quarterly reports on the progress of AFIPPS implementation and 
steps taken to safeguard the financial accounting of the Space 
Force military personnel appropriation.
    Air National Guard Unit Leveling Initiative.--The Committee 
is aware of force structure changes planned by the Director of 
the Air National Guard to address an imbalance of full-time 
Active Guard and Reserve [AGR] personnel across like units to 
ensure that standardized force posture exists to meet readiness 
requirements more equitably. The Committee notes concerns 
raised by some States that the proposed changes may be harmful 
to the readiness of certain units with missions such as search 
and rescue, aerial refueling, and air alert and air defense 
missions under U.S. Northern Command. The Committee is 
appreciative of the engagement by the Air National Guard with 
Congress and the States on this proposal. The Committee further 
supports ongoing efforts by the Air National Guard to work with 
States to address their concerns.
    The Committee notes that the fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget request includes an increase of 403 AGR personnel in the 
Air National Guard above the level authorized in fiscal year 
2024. The Committee recommends an increase of $27,600,000 over 
the fiscal year 2025 President's budget request to implement 
the additional increase of 246 AGR Air National Guard personnel 
authorized in S. 4638, the National Defense Authorization Act 
for Fiscal Year 2025, as reported by the Senate Armed Services 
Committee.
    Further, the Committee is aware of section 516 of S. 4638, 
as reported, and directs the Chief of the National Guard Bureau 
to provide the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and the Senate a copy of the report required by 
this section, if enacted. The Committee further directs the 
Secretary of the Air Force, in consultation with the Chief of 
the National Guard Bureau, to submit a briefing to the 
Committees on Appropriations of the House of Representatives 
and the Senate not later than January 1, 2025 that includes 
detailed data on location and type of unit positions being 
adjusted, and how the Air National Guard plans to address 
concerns raised by States to these plans, together with an 
estimated cost of full implementation.
    Advanced Trauma and Public Health Direct Training Services 
for the National Guard.--The Committee directs the Chief of the 
National Guard Bureau to continue state-of-the-art trauma, 
critical care, behavioral health, public health, and other 
ancillary direct medical training utilizing academic medical 
centers. These disciplines for Air National Guard and Army 
National Guard medical and non-medical personnel, and State 
Partnership Program/Global Health Engagement international 
partners are intended to minimize civilian-military and 
international coalition medical operational gaps in the event 
of a catastrophic incident. Further, these preparedness 
programs shall be delivered through direct training services, 
to include advanced trauma, public health, and combat lifesaver 
curriculums focusing on critical life-saving procedures, 
epidemiology of public health diseases, prevention and 
treatment, mass casualty triage, and psychological health.
    Mobile Armed Forces Advanced Trauma Training.--The 
Committee commends the National Guard Bureau--Joint Surgeon's 
Office [NGB-JSG] for facilitating state-of-the-art trauma 
training for medical military servicemembers to maintain their 
trauma care readiness. The Committee further notes the efforts 
by the NGB-JSG in creating a mobile training model to expand 
access for personnel required to maintain lifesaving training 
certifications. The Committee is aware that the National Guard 
Bureau may soon be reducing intervals between training which 
would increase the amount of personnel that require 
certifications. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
National Guard Bureau to designate this as a program of record 
and appropriately budget internally to meet the additional 
requirements to provide lifesaving trauma training.

            OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET EXECUTION DATA

    The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense and Service 
Secretaries to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees with quarterly budget execution data. Such data 
should be provided not later than 45 days after the close of 
each quarter of the fiscal year, and should be provided for 
each O-1 budget activity, activity group, and sub-activity 
group for each of the active, defense-wide, reserve, and 
National Guard components. For each O-1 budget activity, 
activity group, and sub-activity group, these reports should 
include the budget request and actual obligation amount, the 
distribution of unallocated congressional adjustments to the 
budget request, all adjustments made by the Department in 
establishing the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414) report, 
all adjustments resulting from below threshold reprogrammings, 
and all adjustments resulting from prior approval reprogramming 
requests.

            OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

    Items for which additional funds have been provided or have 
been specifically reduced as shown in the project level tables 
or in paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' 
in the Committee report are congressional special interest 
items for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 
1414). Each of these items must be carried on the DD Form 1414 
at the stated amount as specifically addressed in the Committee 
report. Below threshold reprogrammings may not be used to 
either restore or reduce funding from congressional special 
interest items as identified on the DD Form 1414.

                   OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW

    Civilian Workforce.--The Committee expects the Department 
of Defense to maintain a stable, effective, and right-sized 
civilian cadre. The Committee further expects the hiring 
process to be responsive and efficient in order to build the 
workforce needed to achieve its mission and strategic goals. 
The Committee recognizes the critical role that the civilian 
workforce plays every day in ensuring the mission success of 
the Armed Forces.
    Child Development Center Abuse Investigation.--The 
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to initiate an 
independent review of the Department of Defense's efforts to 
respond to and report child abuse at Child Development Centers 
[CDC] not later than 60 days after enactment of this act. The 
Committee further directs that this review be conducted by an 
entity independent of the Department of Defense. This review 
shall evaluate how the Department of Defense: (1) takes 
proactive measures and accountability while promoting 
transparency; (2) administers victim support, promotes 
awareness, and identifies abuse; (3) communicates to families; 
and (4) manages investigations. This review shall also identify 
and evaluate completed and ongoing reforms undertaken by the 
Department of Defense to improve these areas of effort and make 
recommendations for additional reforms that should be 
implemented to close remaining gaps. A report on the 
independent review's findings and recommendations shall be 
provided to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and the Senate not later than 210 days of the 
date the review commences. In addition, the Committee directs 
the Department of Defense Inspector General to conduct an 
investigation into referred reports of child abuse at the Ford 
Island Child Development Center near Joint Base Pearl Harbor-
Hickam and brief the Committees on Appropriations of the House 
of Representatives and the Senate of its findings.
    Deployable Expeditionary Fuel System.--The Committee 
recognizes the dynamic requirements associated with fuel 
distribution in contested environments, particularly in the 
Indo-Pacific region. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
Service Secretaries to seek solutions that are flexible, 
scalable, and modular, such as a deployable expeditionary fuel 
system. Key innovative and cost-effective approaches may 
include elements such as mobile infrastructure for storing, 
distributing, and dispensing fuel in the field; fuel quantity, 
quality, and safety monitoring; and on-system repair and 
maintenance capability.
    United States-Japan Alliance and Exercises in the Indo-
Pacific Theater.--The Committee reaffirms that the United 
States-Japan alliance has served as a cornerstone of peace, 
security, and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific for over six 
decades. The Committee believes that military exercises in the 
Indo-Pacific are key to advancing bilateral goals, and the 
Committee notes that concrete metrics are important for both 
Congress and the Department of Defense in making informed 
policy decisions.
    Accordingly, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense 
to provide a report to the congressional defense committees, 
not later than 90 days after the enactment of this act, 
detailing how exercises in the Indo-Pacific theater that 
utilize Joint Exercise Life Cycle [JELC] methodology and 
include participation of Japanese Self Defense Forces [JSDF]: 
(1) promote the modernization of the U.S.-Japan alliance, 
including enhanced technological capabilities to increase 
deterrence, (2) expand U.S.-Japan alliance partnerships such as 
increasing multilateral training and exercises with Australia, 
South Korea, and other security partners to enhance 
interoperability, and (3) optimize U.S.-Japan alliance posture 
by supporting improved operational concepts and enhanced 
capabilities to address security challenges in the region, 
including the defense of the Southwestern islands of Japan. The 
report shall further detail how the JELC exercises that include 
the JSDF adhere to goals outlined in the January 11, 2023 Joint 
Statement of the U.S.-Japan Security Consultative Committee 
(2+2).
    Artificial Intelligence for Military Housing Inspections.--
The Committee notes the use of artificial intelligence to 
examine aerial imagery of housing and analyze probable weather 
events as a potential method to conduct cost-effective and 
efficient inspections of military housing conditions. The 
Committee encourages the Service Secretaries to explore ways to 
improve inspections of their housing portfolios, including by 
exploring the feasibility of conducting housing inspections 
that utilize aerial imagery and probable weather analysis.
    Arctic Consortium Requirements.--The Committee recognizes 
that the Arctic region presents geopolitical challenges and 
opportunities affecting national security interests and is 
supportive of efforts to better understand the emerging needs 
for enhanced operations in the Arctic region. The Committee 
encourages the Secretary of Defense to seek opportunities to 
partner with interagency organizations, the Center for Arctic 
Security and Resiliency, and the Joint All Domain Weather 
Operations Center, to coordinate Federal agency planning for 
Arctic operations.
    Addressing Sexual Assault.--The Committee continues to 
support the Department of Defense's efforts to eradicate the 
crime of sexual assault and implement the recommendations of 
the Independent Review Commission on Sexual Assault in the 
Military. The Committee recommends $47,000,000 above the budget 
request for the Department of Defense to continue the Special 
Victims' Counsel Program.
    Military Family Life Counseling.--Military servicemembers 
continually confront unique family life challenges. Military 
and Family Life Counselors [MFLCs] provide critical support for 
servicemembers and their families to deal with stressors such 
as post-deployment adjustment, conflict resolution and anxiety, 
parenting support, marital issues, and dealing with loss. The 
Committee encourage the Service Secretaries to prioritize MFLC 
hiring initiatives, including those with financial incentives, 
to fill vacant positions and retain experienced counselors 
across the country.
    Environmental Restoration Program Transparency.--The 
Committee recommends an increase of $130,680,000 for the 
Military Munitions Response Program and per- and 
polyfluoroalkyl substances remediation in the environmental 
restoration accounts. The Committee directs the Secretary of 
Defense and the Service Secretaries to provide a report on 
Environmental Restoration Program implementation to the 
congressional defense committees not later than 90 days after 
enactment of this act. The report shall include an explanation 
of the evaluation processes and criteria, and a spend plan for 
account activities along with project location, funding 
history, and total cost. In addition, the Committee directs the 
Secretary of Defense and the Service Secretaries to provide 
quarterly budget execution briefings to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and Senate not 
later than 45 days after the enactment of this act.

    Naval Shipyard Apprentice Program.--The Committee directs 
that during fiscal year 2025, the Navy shall induct classes of 
no fewer than 100 apprentices, respectively, at each of the 
naval shipyards. The Committee further directs the Navy to 
include the costs of the fiscal year 2026 class of apprentices 
in its budget request.
    U.S. Coast Guard.--The Committee is aware that Department 
of Defense [DoD] regulations currently restrict DoD mission 
appropriated funded activities from offering reimbursable rates 
to non-DoD agencies. This restriction forces the Navy to charge 
the U.S. Coast Guard fully burdened rates for drydocking 
services at Navy shipyards rather than reimbursable rates. 
Therefore, the Committee directs that funds appropriated under 
Operation and Maintenance, Navy, may be used to pay overhead 
costs incurred by a Naval Shipyard when drydocking U.S. Coast 
Guard ships.
    Strategic Seaport Program.--The Committee notes that 
strategic seaports designated under the Strategic Seaport 
Program [SSP] are critical transportation hubs necessary for 
United States military readiness and cargo handling capacity. 
The Committee directs the Comptroller General of the United 
States to provide a report to the House and Senate 
Appropriations Committees, not later than 270 days after the 
enactment of this act, on the programs and efforts of the 
Department of Defense related to the readiness of the ports as 
affected by dredging capacity to complete harbor and channel 
dredging. This shall include identification of dredging work, 
by seaport, required to ensure deep water access; review of 
domestic dredging industrial capacity to complete the 
identified dredging; assessment of time required to complete 
outstanding dredging work in SSP ports; and what Federal 
policies, including contracting policies, can be implemented to 
support domestic manufacturers of critical components used in 
the manufacture of domestic dredger vessels. The report shall 
be completed in consultation with the National Port Readiness 
Network, the domestic dredging industry, and domestic critical 
component manufacturers. For purposes of this paragraph 
critical components shall include cranes, spring couplings, 
torque limiters, diesel engine clutches, clutch couplings, wet 
brakes, and combination gearbox, and such other items as 
determined by the agency.
    Advanced Foam Engine Performance and Restoration Program.--
Advanced nucleated foam engine restoration technology continues 
to demonstrate significant benefits over legacy water and 
detergent engine wash protocols, improving the long-term 
readiness, efficiency, and sustainability of critical military 
aircraft engines, while reducing fuel consumption and 
emissions. The Committee encourages broader use of nucleated 
foam engine wash testing across Naval aviation platforms.
    Emerging Technology to Improve Ship Maintenance.--The 
Committee notes that new technology presents opportunities to 
improve ship maintenance efforts. Robotic data collection and 
digital twins have a proven track record in industry and at 
multiple regional maintenance centers. The use of small drones 
may support preventative maintenance efforts through timely 
inspections while underway. The Committee encourages the 
Secretary of the Navy to expand the use of emerging technology 
such as small drones, robots, and digital twins to perform 
preventative maintenance, replace manual inspections, and 
reduce repair times.
    Red Hill Ecosystem Monitoring.--The Committee recognizes 
that the ecosystem in and around the Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage 
Facility must remain free from any fuel contaminants. 
Therefore, the Secretary of the Navy is encouraged to 
prioritize monitoring the Halawa Stream ecosystem, nearby 
surface water of all types, and the physical habitat of the 
estuaries of Pearl Harbor, Mamala Bay, and the marine 
environment along the nearby ocean shore.
    Advanced Polymer Coating and Paint for Ships.--The 
Committee notes that maintaining the exterior of paint is vital 
to the readiness of the US. Naval Fleet. The Committee 
encourages the Secretary of the Navy to look into new and 
emerging paint and polymer coatings that can extend the time 
between when ships need to be repainted while being lighter, 
anticorrosive, flexible, self-leveling, and can be applied 
directly to rust.
    Multi-Mission Dry Dock.--The Shipyard Infrastructure and 
Optimization Program [SIOP] focuses on the modernization and 
optimization of the Navy's four public shipyards. Near-term 
SIOP investments are required to recapitalize facilities and 
address deficiencies in dry dock capacity. The Committee 
directs the Secretary of the Navy to prioritize plans for a 
multi-mission dry dock that will be able to serve the Navy's 
current and future classes of submarines and aircraft carriers, 
including Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carriers, Virginia-
class, and Columbia-class submarines.
    Invasive Octocoral Study, Eradication, and Monitoring.--The 
Committee notes that the Department of the Navy identified 
Unomia stolonifera, an invasive soft coral, at Joint Base Pearl 
Harbor-Hickam [JBPHH] in 2021, and further notes the potential 
operational impact on the Navy. The Committee encourages the 
Secretary of the Navy to support this critical natural 
infrastructure from threats such as invasive marine species by 
partnering with non-Federal coastal managers. The Committee 
further encourages the Secretary of the Navy to use appropriate 
operation and maintenance funding and programs such as 
Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration Program to 
undertake conservation and management of coral reef ecosystems 
in proximity to its coastal installations.

    Missile Community Cancer Study.--The Committee commends the 
Department of the Air Force for its ongoing Missile Community 
Cancer Study and emphasizes the importance of prioritizing this 
effort. The Committee supports the use of resources to mitigate 
chemical hazards identified at Air Force Global Strike Command 
duty locations, the establishment of robust processes to 
prevent future exposures, and the comprehensive epidemiological 
studies to evaluate the health impact on current and former 
servicemembers who served at these locations. Therefore, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to expedite 
these efforts and maintain a transparent process by providing 
regular updates to affected servicemembers, veterans, and their 
families. As the Department of the Air Force transitions to the 
Sentinel intercontinental ballistic missile system, the 
Committee emphasizes the importance of applying lessons learned 
from this study to ensure the highest standards of 
environmental health and safety in future missile operations.

    Defense Language and National Security Education Office.--
The Committee recognizes that, in partnership with universities 
across the country, the Defense Language and National Security 
Education Office provides critical college accredited training 
for servicemembers and government officials in a number of 
languages and strategic cultures. The Committee encourages the 
Department of Defense to continue placing a high priority on 
the Language Training Centers and the Language Flagship 
program, with an emphasis on quality of instruction and a 
preference for programs that provide college credit. The 
Committee designates the funding provided for the Language 
Training Centers as a congressional special interest item for 
the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). The 
Committee further directs that the funding profiles for the 
Language Training Centers and the Language Flagship Program in 
total for the prior year, current year, and budget year be 
included in the Performance Criteria section of the Defense 
Human Resources Activity OP-5 budget exhibit in future 
submissions.
    Defense Community Infrastructure Pilot Program.--The 
Committee continues to support the Defense Community 
Infrastructure Pilot Program [DCIP] and recommends a total of 
$110,000,000 for the program for fiscal year 2025. The 
Committee further recognizes that nuclear deterrence remains a 
top priority of the Department, and the Committee encourages 
the Secretary of Defense to provide thorough consideration for 
grant applications addressing deficiencies in infrastructure in 
communities that support critical national security missions 
such as nuclear deterrence. The Committee directs the Secretary 
of Defense to provide the deliverable included in section 2851 
of S. 4638, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal 
Year 2025, as reported, to the Committees on Appropriations of 
the House of Representatives and the Senate.
    Use of Automated Analytical Processes and Publicly 
Available Information by Defense Counterintelligence and 
Security Agency.--The Committee believes that the use of 
automated analytical processes and publicly available 
electronic information [PAEI] can provide value to the 
Department of Defense in screening against a wide range of 
risks considered by the Defense Counterintelligence and 
Security Agency [DCSA]. The Committee encourages the Secretary 
of Defense to leverage automated analytical processes and PAEI 
to improve accuracy across DCSA's missions.
    Post-Separation Programming.--The Committee notes that 
servicemembers often face challenges as they transition out of 
the military and create a new, productive life as a civilian. 
The Committee encourages the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Personnel and Readiness) to assess successful existing 
programs, such as the Marine for Life program, and develop 
guidance for all military services to share best practices for 
developing programs that connect separating servicemembers to 
networks of veterans and retirees to enable them to remain 
connected to the military community, with the goal of promoting 
life-long commitment to core values and a beneficial support 
network.
    Community Noise Mitigation Program.--The Committee 
recognizes the importance of supporting communities neighboring 
military installations and commends the work of the Office of 
Local Defense Community Cooperation [OLDCC]. The Committee 
further recognizes the challenges faced by residential 
communities bordering aviation units. Therefore, the Committee 
encourages the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
Director of OLDCC, to move expeditiously to award previously 
appropriated funds.
    Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration 
Program.--The Committee recommends an additional $22,652,000 
for the Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration 
[REPI] program. The Committee designates this funding and the 
$177,348,000 included in the fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget request for the REPI program as a congressional special 
interest item for the purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD 
Form 1414). Further, the Committee recognizes the success that 
the REPI program has achieved in addressing encroachment and in 
maintaining and improving military installation resilience. 
However, the Committee is concerned that the military services 
have not programmed sufficient operation and maintenance 
funding for staff to implement the increased REPI funding 
provided by Congress in recent years. Therefore, the Committee 
directs the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the 
Service Secretaries, to provide a report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and the Senate 
not later than 180 days after enactment of this act that 
includes programmatic funding and full-time employee data 
dedicated to the implementation of the REPI program for fiscal 
years 2022 through 2025. This report shall also identify 
unfunded requirements related to funding and staffing for 
future fiscal years.
    Ex Gratia Payments.--The Committee recommendation includes 
sufficient funding for the Office of the Secretary of Defense 
under Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide, for payments 
made to redress injury and loss pursuant to section 1213 of the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020 (Public 
Law 116-92). Furthermore, the Committee directs the Secretary 
of Defense to provide a briefing to the congressional defense 
committees not later than 60 days after the enactment of this 
act regarding the disbursement of such payments.
    Security Assistance Reporting Requirements.--The Committee 
directs the Secretary of Defense to submit reports, on a 
quarterly basis, to the congressional defense committees not 
later than 30 days after the last day of each quarter of the 
fiscal year that detail commitment, obligation, and expenditure 
data by sub-activity group for Operation and Maintenance, 
Defense-Wide, Defense Security Cooperation Agency.
    Baltic Security Initiative.--The Committee recommends 
$225,133,000, an increase of $7,045,000, for the Baltic 
Security Initiative in strong support of ongoing security 
cooperation with Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The Committee 
strongly supports the U.S.-Baltic Dialogue, and the Security 
Cooperation Roadmaps 2024-2028 as critical partnerships in 
support of North Atlantic Treaty Organization [NATO]'s security 
and deterrence posture. The Committee encourages the Secretary 
of Defense to continue robust security cooperation with the 
Baltic States, especially in the areas of integrated air and 
missile defense; long-range precision fires; maritime domain 
awareness; cyber, irregular warfare; land forces development; 
command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, 
surveillance, and reconnaissance; and infrastructure 
development. Finally, the Committee directs the Secretary of 
Defense to brief the Committees on Appropriations of the House 
of Representatives and the Senate not later than 90 days after 
the enactment of this act on updates to the Baltic Security 
Initiative's multi-year strategy and spend plan in light of 
continued Russian aggression in Europe.
    Defense Security Cooperation Agency Programs.--The 
Committee is concerned by the delays in the execution of 
International Security Cooperation Programs [ISCP] within the 
2-year period of availability of appropriations. The Committee 
notes that the Defense Security Cooperation Agency [DSCA] has 
the statutory authority to build the capacity of foreign forces 
pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 333, 332, and 1263, and that these 
activities do not represent new projects or activities in the 
budget year. Further, the Committee notes that the annual 
appropriation bill requires notification, but not prior 
approval, for its security cooperation activities. Therefore, 
the Committee directs the Director, DSCA to efficiently execute 
security cooperation programs by using the entire period of 
availability of funding to the greatest extent possible.
    The Committee is encouraged by the Department's 
establishment and use of regional centers for security studies 
to further outreach and provide for more focused research to 
help promote global security cooperation efforts to include the 
Ted Stevens Center for Arctic Security Studies and the Daniel 
K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies. Therefore, 
the Committee recommends an additional $4,500,000 for Regional 
Centers, and directs the Director, DSCA, within 60 days of 
enactment of this act to provide the congressional defense 
committees with a briefing on the status of the programs, 
objectives, milestones, execution plans, an assessment of 
current reimbursement waiver authority, any legislative 
proposals under consideration as it pertains to current waiver 
authority, and any other quantitative and qualitative data 
determined by the Director for each regional center.
    The Committee understands the Theater Maintenance 
Partnership Initiative [TMPI] is a multi-year holistic approach 
to build partner capacity in equipment maintenance, lifecycle 
and supply chain management, and provide institutional capacity 
building at the strategic level to our allied and partner 
nations. Further, the Committee notes that this has been 
identified as a critical requirement for United States Southern 
Command [SOUTHCOM]. Therefore, the Committee directs the 
Director, Defense Security Cooperation Agency to provide a 
report to the congressional defense committees not later than 
60 days after enactment of this act that details the 
Department's resourcing strategy for TMPI centers of excellence 
in SOUTHCOM's area of responsibility.
    Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response.--The Committee's 
recommendation fully funds the fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget request for civilian harm mitigation and response. 
Further, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 
brief the congressional defense committees not later than 90 
days after enactment of this act on the status of Department's 
Civilian Harm Mitigation and Response Action Plan [CHMR-AP] 
implementation, including the Steering Committee; the Civilian 
Protection Center of Excellence; staffing by military service 
and combatant command; resources across the Future Years 
Defense Program; and forthcoming CHMR training, education, 
technology, and advising to support the CHMR-AP. Finally, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to submit to the 
congressional defense committees, concurrent with the fiscal 
year 2026 President's budget request, a report on the CHMR 
resources and programs in the Future Years Defense Program.
    Advanced Vehicle Forensic Engineering.--In order to 
maintain operational superiority, United States Special 
Operations Command [USSOCOM] requires rapid and effective 
collection and exploitation capabilities to deploy against all 
adversaries. Specifically, the Committee believes that USSOCOM 
lacks the tools to adequately conduct vehicle forensics in an 
age when many vehicles store significant amounts of 
geolocation, imagery, and other data. Therefore, the Committee 
encourages the Director, Special Operations Forces Acquisition, 
Technology, and Logistics to leverage new commercial tools to 
update operators' vehicle forensic exploitation kits and invest 
in continuous capability improvement.

    Islamic State of Iraq and Syria Detainees.--The Committee 
is concerned about the burden on the Syrian Democratic Forces 
[SDF] of holding thousands of Islamic State of Iraq and Syria 
[ISIS] detainees and notes that the makeshift detention 
facilities are overcrowded and vulnerable to the types of ISIS 
attacks that led to the rise of the organization in 2012. The 
Committee supports efforts of the Department of Defense and 
international partners to fortify and construct detention 
facilities to alleviate overcrowding, enhance humane detention, 
and ensure the security of dangerous detainees. The Committee 
directs the Secretary of Defense to notify the congressional 
defense committees not later than 30 days prior to obligation 
of funds for any construction activity and prioritizes 
detention facilities repair and construction ahead of any other 
construction activity. Moreover, the Committee directs the 
Secretary of Defense to engage with the SDF on ensuring that 
detainees are afforded all protections due under the Geneva 
Conventions.

    Combat Readiness Training Centers.--The Committee 
recognizes the strategic value that Air National Guard combat 
readiness training centers provide to the readiness and 
capabilities of the joint force. Therefore, in fiscal year 
2025, the Committee expects the Secretary of the Air Force and 
the Chief of the National Guard Bureau to continue resourcing 
personnel and operations at all four combat readiness training 
centers at no less than the funding levels included in the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-
47).
    The Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force, in 
coordination with the Chief of the National Guard Bureau, to 
provide a briefing to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 90 days after the enactment of this act, detailing 
plans for the operations, manning, and anticipated annual 
funding requirements for each of the combat readiness training 
centers from fiscal year 2025 through the Future Years Defense 
Program.

            REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow 
the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report 
accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense 
appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008 (House Report 110-
279). The dollar threshold for reprogramming funds shall be 
$15,000,000 for procurement and research, development, test and 
evaluation.
    Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is 
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports 
for service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of 
this act. Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with 
guidance specified in the conference report accompanying the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2006. 
The Department shall continue to follow the limitation that 
prior approval reprogrammings are set at either the specified 
dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, 
development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. These 
thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value 
as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 
value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P-1), or a 
research, development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds 
the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit 
a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 
committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior 
approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special 
interest items are established elsewhere in this explanatory 
statement.

                           Funding Increases

    The funding increases outlined in the tables accompanying 
each appropriation account shall be provided only for the 
specific purposes indicated in the tables of Committee 
Recommended Adjustments. The Committee directs that funding 
increases shall be competitively awarded, or provided to 
programs that have received competitive awards in the past.

                   PROCUREMENT SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

    Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 
items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 
tables detailing Committee recommended adjustments or in 
paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' are 
congressional special interest items for the purpose of the 
Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must 
be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as 
specifically addressed elsewhere in this report.

                          PROCUREMENT OVERVIEW

    Army Organic Industrial Base.--The Committee directs the 
Secretary of the Army to provide 45-day written notification to 
the congressional defense committees prior to the Secretary 
approving civilian reductions in force that will result in an 
employment loss of 50 or more full-time employees at any Army 
organic industrial base facility. The notification shall 
include the impact that the proposed reduction in force will 
have on the ability to maintain the organic industrial base 
critical manufacturing capabilities as delineated in the Army 
Organic Industrial Base Strategy Report, a detailed accounting 
of the costs of implementing the reduction in force, and an 
assessment of the cost of, and time necessary, to restore any 
lost capability to meet future organic wartime manufacturing 
needs.
    Budget Line Consolidation.--The Committee continues to 
support efforts to improve efficiency in the development and 
review of the Department of Defense budget. In Senate Report 
118-81, the Committee directed the Secretary of the Army to 
develop a proposal to reduce and streamline the number of 
individual budget lines in the ``Other Procurement, Army'' 
appropriations account. Over the course of the past year, the 
Committee has worked in partnership with Army financial 
management and acquisition officials to identify budget lines 
within the ``Other Procurement, Army'' appropriations account 
that are superfluous and appropriate for consolidation. The 
Committee commends the team of Army officials who have 
diligently worked to evaluate opportunities for improvement.
    The Committee's recommendation for ``Other Procurement, 
Army'' adopts the majority of the Secretary of the Army's 
recommendations, reducing 17 budget lines from the 
appropriation account. This will provide needed resources while 
reducing the need for reprogramming submissions to address 
fact-of-life changes that can be addressed in regular course at 
the budget line level. The Committee directs the Secretary of 
Army to undertake further review to identify additional lines 
for potential additional consolidation in conjunction with the 
submission of the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request.
    Further, the Committee is encouraged by the progress 
demonstrated by the Secretary of the Army and believes that all 
Military Departments would benefit from a similar review of 
certain appropriations accounts. Therefore the Committee 
directs the Secretary of the Navy and the Air Force, in 
coordination with the Undersecretary of Defense (Comptroller) 
and the congressional defense committees, to separately develop 
proposals to reduce and streamline the number of individual 
budget lines in the ``Other Procurement, Navy'' and the ``Other 
Procurement, Air Force'' appropriation accounts prior to 
submission of the President's fiscal year 2026 budget request. 
This will allow sufficient time for congressional review and 
implementation in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 
2026.
    Munitions Production Capacity Investments.--The fiscal year 
2025 President's budget request seeks significant funding for 
tooling and facilitization at commercially-owned facilities for 
the production of munitions. This request comes in addition to 
the significant sums provided in prior years through Department 
of Defense Appropriations Acts, Supplemental Appropriations 
Acts, and replenishment funds. The Committee supports 
transitioning from a ``just-in-time'' to a ``just-in-case'' 
approach to ensure that the defense industrial base has the 
ability to produce munitions rapidly, cost effectively, and in 
sufficient quantities to meet the total munitions requirements 
and surge capacity requirements of the Armed Forces. The 
Committee notes the Department of Defense's [DoD] 
responsibilities to establish clear, consistent requirements 
for both munitions stockpiles and surge capacity, so that the 
defense industrial base can plan accordingly. DoD also has the 
responsibility to budget for munitions at the appropriate level 
in a timely manner so they are available when needed. However, 
the Committee also notes the responsibility of the defense 
industrial base to maintain and modernize facilities to meet 
clear customer demands, recruit and train a skilled workforce, 
and manage supply chains at appropriate levels of capacity and 
readiness. The Committee is concerned by the inconsistent 
balance between government and private investment in these 
areas for certain munitions, especially as government-owned 
munitions facilities have suffered from long-term under-
investment and require extensive improvements.
    The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army, the 
Secretary of the Navy, and the Secretary of the Air Force, 
beginning with the President's budget request for fiscal year 
2026, to include a separate cost element or project code, 
within each applicable munition program's justification 
materials, for facilitization, including tooling and capacity 
expansion at commercial facilities; and to provide the 
congressional defense committees with the surge capacity 
requirement and expected industry cost-sharing or co-investment 
for each such request, as well as the amount of government and 
commercial investment in such program's facilities in each of 
the previous five fiscal years.
    Multi-Year Procurement Contracts for Critical Munitions.--
In the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public 
Law 118-47) Congress supported the Department's requests for 
multi-year procurement authority for six critical munitions 
programs. The Committee continues to closely monitor the 
progress of these programs and is concerned by the continuing 
delays in awarding and executing these contracts. The Committee 
reiterates its expectation that these procurements will result 
in substantial unit cost savings, stability in the supplier 
base, industry investment in expanding and upgrading their 
facilities, and weapons being delivered at cost and on or ahead 
of schedule. Accordingly, the Committee directs the Secretary 
of Defense to provide a twice-yearly report on the status of 
each such munition multi-year procurement award until all 
munitions covered under such award have been delivered, to 
include, projected and realized cost savings, the amount and 
impact of government and industry investment on capacity and 
associated supply chains, and an assessment of the extent to 
which such award has generated greater stability in the 
associated supply chain.
    Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems.--The Committee recognizes 
the urgent need for the military services to field systems that 
defend against the growing and constantly evolving threat from 
unmanned aerial systems [UAS]. Given the wide variety and 
global proliferation of UAS threats, combined with constrained 
air defense capacity, the Committee believes that the 
Department should field a number of capabilities that can 
address the full breadth of evolving threats and take advantage 
of multiple innovative approaches. The Committee is concerned 
that, through its internal requirements development and budget 
review processes, the Army has inadvertently self-imposed 
restrictions on the counter-UAS systems it can procure. 
Therefore, to provide the Army with greater flexibility, the 
Committee recommends adjustments in ``Other Procurement, Army'' 
and ``Missile Procurement, Army'', as detailed in the 
respective tables of Committee Recommended Adjustments, to 
expand the scope of counter-UAS procurement options. 
Additionally, to meet the counter-UAS need and address the 
Army's top unfunded priority, the Committee recommends 
$184,837,000 above the President's budget request for 
additional interceptors and launchers.
    The Committee's recommendations enable the Army to utilize 
funds requested in these appropriation accounts for the most 
appropriate system to meet current and emerging UAS threats. 
The Committee urges the Assistant Secretary of the Army 
(Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology) and the Chief of Staff 
of the Army to use this flexibility to ensure the Army rapidly 
fields a range of the most capable systems, incorporates 
lessons learned from other military services and combatant 
commands using counter-UAS systems; and only undertakes the 
time and resource intensive research and development where 
currently available systems clearly cannot meet operational 
needs. The Committee directs that, not later than 30 days after 
the enactment of this act, the Assistant Secretary of the Army 
(Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology) shall brief the 
congressional defense committees on the Army's plan to address 
the issues the Committee has identified and execute the funding 
the Committee has recommended for counter-UAS capabilities.
    V-22 Comprehensive Review.--First reaching initial 
operating capability in 2007, 431 V-22 Osprey tiltrotor 
aircraft have been delivered to the Navy, Marine Corps and Air 
Force Special Operations Command [AFSOC]. The Committee 
recognizes that the tiltrotor aircraft was a technological leap 
in aviation that has provided an invaluable asset to operating 
forces that can employ a vertical/short take-off and landing 
system with ranges and speeds that far exceed traditional rotor 
blade aircraft. However, the Committee notes that regrettably 
during the life of the program there have been at least 16 
class-A mishaps that have resulted in crashes and loss of life.
    The fiscal year 2025 President's Budget request includes 
$60,175,000 in the Aircraft Procurement, Navy [AP,N] account 
for MV-22 and CMV-22 production line shutdown and production 
engineering support. The Department of the Navy communicated 
that $30,000,000 of these funds are no longer required for 
these efforts, and requested that this amount be transferred 
within the AP,N account to the V-22 Modifications line for 
safety initiatives. The Committee approves this request and has 
included the transfer in support of improving the safety of 
this aircraft.
    The Committee is aware that the Naval Air Systems Command 
[NAVAIR] has instituted a comprehensive 12-month review of the 
program to identify and implement opportunities to improve 
safety, availability and affordability of the system with 
corrective actions to be implemented over multiple phases.
    Further, the Committee notes that the Army's Future Long 
Range Assault Aircraft [FLRAA], a tiltrotor variant, recently 
entered the engineering and manufacturing development phase of 
the program. The Committee encourages the Army Program 
Executive Officer, Aviation to collaborate with the Navy's 
Program Executive Officer, Air Anti-Submarine Warfare, Assault 
& Special Mission [PEO (A)] on lessons learned for the 
development and operation of tiltrotor aircraft to ensure 
insights gained across the V-22 program lifecycle can be 
applied early to FLRAA detailed design activities as 
appropriate.
    Finally, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to 
provide quarterly updates to the congressional defense 
committees on the status of the NAVAIR-led review, as well as a 
final report on the findings and implementation plan of all 
recommendations, not later than 90-days following the 
completion of NAVAIR's comprehensive review.

    Wireless Intercommunication System.--The Committee 
understands there is currently a capability gap for wireless 
intercommunications for mounted and dismounted vehicle crews 
operating combat vehicles, to include the M88A2 Improved 
Recovery Vehicle, Abrams main battle tank, Bradley Fighting 
Vehicle and the Armored Multipurpose Vehicle. The Committee 
encourages the Army to resource efforts to address this 
capability gap to allow for mounted and dismounted crew to 
maintain communications and situational awareness.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Army Ammunition Industrial Base.--The Committee supports 
establishing a modular artillery production line within the 
Army organic industrial base as recommended by the briefing 
required by the Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the 
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 (Public 
Law 118-31), which assessed potential opportunities for organic 
industrial base augmentation. The Committee understands that 
adding a new production line, based upon designs for the 
Universal Artillery Production Line, to the organic industrial 
base would provide the Army additional resilience and surge 
capacity to meet demand across a range of artillery production, 
particularly for metal components. The Committee recommends 
$248,000,000, above the President's budget request, in line 36 
``Industrial Facilities'' of the ``Procurement of Ammunition, 
Army'' account, for this purpose.
    120 Millimeter Visual Light Illumination Mortar.--The 
Committee recognizes the current need for M930 120 millimeter 
visual light illumination mortars due to increased threats. 
Further, the Committee recognizes the specialized capability 
inherent at the Pine Bluff Arsenal to produce white phosphorus 
mortar ammunition. The Committee recommends support of the 
fiscal year 2025 President's budget request for continued 
production of M930 120 millimeter mortar ammunition.
    Nitrocellulose Production.--The Committee notes the 
importance of nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin, and acids in the 
production of ammunition and the consequent importance for 
training and readiness. The Committee directs the Secretary of 
the Army to submit to the congressional defense committees a 
report describing: military requirements for nitrocellulose for 
ammunition production; current production capacity and the 
extent to which current capacity meets military requirements; 
the health and resiliency of the relevant supply chains; and 
any recommendations to improve nitrocellulose, nitroglycerin, 
and acid production.

Budget estimate, 2025...................................  $8,616,524,000
Committee recommendation................................   8,880,051,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$8,880,051,000, of which $165,455,000 is designated as being 
for an emergency requirement pursuant to section 
251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985. This is $263,527,000 above the budget 
estimate.

    MQ-25 Unmanned Carrier Aviation.--The fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request includes $501,683,000 in Aircraft 
Procurement, Navy [AP,N] for the procurement of three MQ-25 
Stingray Unmanned Carrier Aviation aircraft, and associated 
support. Additionally, the budget request includes $51,344,000 
in AP,N to procure long lead materials for additional aircraft. 
Further, the budget request includes $214,919,000 in Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Navy [RDT&E,N] to continue 
Engineering and Manufacturing Development efforts, testing, and 
obsolescence.
    At the request of the Department of the Navy, the Committee 
coordinated extensively with the program office in fiscal year 
2024 to restructure the program following schedule delays to 
ensure resources were available to finance a revised 
acquisition strategy and address the program's obsolescence 
issues. The Committee notes that since then, the program has 
delivered one static test article in the second quarter of 
fiscal year 2024; however, the program has incurred another 3 
month schedule delay from the recent program re-baseline. The 
first flight of the aircraft has further been delayed to 
approximately February 2026.
    The Committee is concerned that the budget request would 
procure additional aircraft in fiscal year 2025 prior to the 
first flight of the aircraft and before the obsolescence 
redesign effort is completed. The Committee believes that such 
concurrent procurement would introduce excessive risk into the 
program and prevent the incorporation of required changes 
discovered through on-going testing into production. Therefore, 
the Committee recommends a reduction of AP,N funds by a total 
of $451,683,000 for the three production aircraft.
    The Committee recognizes that a healthy industrial base is 
critical to the success of this program. Therefore, the 
Committee recommends $50,000,000 only for the purpose of 
supporting the unmanned carrier aviation industrial base. The 
Committee also supports the advance procurement request of 
$51,344,000 for the long lead material necessary to support 
aircraft procurement in fiscal year 2026.

                       Weapons Procurement, Navy

Budget estimate, 2025...................................  $6,600,327,000
Committee recommendation................................   6,568,402,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$6,568,402,000, of which $50,000,000 is designated as being for 
an emergency requirement pursuant to section 251(b)(2)(A)(i) of 
the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985. 
This is $31,925,000 below the budget estimate.

    The following table summarizes the budget estimate for this 
appropriation, the Committee recommendation, and the Committee 
recommended adjustments to the budget estimate:

    Weapons Suppliers Stability.--The Committee is encouraged 
that the Department of the Navy is engaging in conversations to 
purchase components of weapons systems directly from sub-tier 
suppliers and believes that such actions will further bolster 
the defense industrial base while providing meaningful savings 
to taxpayers. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the 
Navy to expand such collaboration to improve the industrial 
base and capacity of qualified component manufacturers, 
including those of solid rocket motors.

    45-Day Shipbuilding Review.--The Committee notes the 
findings of the Navy's 45-day Shipbuilding Review found 
significant delays, cost overruns, and workforce recruitment 
and retention challenges in no fewer than eight Navy 
shipbuilding programs. These include a 12-16 months delay in 
lead boat construction of the COLUMBIA Class Submarine [COL], 
24-36 months delay in VIRGINIA Class Submarine [VCS] 
construction, 18-26 months delay in delivering the third FORD 
Class Aircraft Carrier, and at least 3 years delay in the lead 
CONSTELLATION Class Frigate. Therefore, the Committee directs 
the Secretary of the Navy to submit, on a quarterly basis after 
the enactment of this act, a report to the Committees on 
Appropriations of the House of Representatives and Senate for 
each ship class identified in the Navy's review which includes 
a ship delivery schedule by hull; required workforce by trade 
and fiscal year, including associated required recruitment and 
retention data by quarter; Navy and local industrial base 
investments delineated by fiscal year; an assessment of any at-
risk shipbuilding supplier; and design maturity curves. 
Further, the Committee directs the Comptroller General of the 
United States to submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees not later than 90 days after the enactment of this 
act which assesses the root causes of the recent cost increases 
and schedule delays in Navy ship, submarine, and aircraft 
carrier programs cited in the Navy's review, and makes 
recommendations to address those factors.
    Submarine Industrial Base.--The Committee recognizes that 
strengthening the submarine industrial base [SIB] is essential 
to ensuring that new submarines can be constructed at the pace 
outlined in the Navy's shipbuilding plan to meet national 
security needs. Therefore, the Committee strongly supports the 
Navy's efforts to invest in the infrastructure and workforce of 
shipbuilders and suppliers. The fiscal year 2025 President's 
budget requests funding for one new construction VIRGINIA Class 
Submarine [VCS] and increased investment in the SIB in order to 
more fully mature SIB capacity and workforce before returning 
to a two VCS construction cadence. The Committee understands 
that an additional $1,000,000,000 of supplier workload could 
further stabilize and improve performance of the industrial 
base. Based on extensive dialogue with the Navy, the Committee 
understands that the Navy can resource $643,000,000 for this 
opportunity from VCS Block IV economic order quantity funding 
appropriated in the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 
2024 (Public Law 118-47), VCS SIB construction spares funding 
appropriated in the National Security Supplemental 
Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-50), and funding the 
Committee recommends in this act that was requested in the 
fiscal year 2025 President's budget request. The Committee 
recommends an additional $357,000,000 in the VCS program line 
to further solidify this key supplier capacity in support of a 
second VCS shipset of materials, and to stabilize the SIB.
    In addition, the Committee recognizes that the opportunity 
presented by historic levels of appropriated SIB support can 
only achieve this capacity through carefully-targeted 
investments and proper stewardship of funds. Therefore, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Navy to submit a report 
to the congressional defense committees not later than 90 days 
after the enactment of this act, and semi-annually thereafter, 
on the Navy's planned oversight approach for overseeing all 
phases of the SIB funding cycle, including the identification 
of gaps, selection of projects, oversight of funding execution, 
and determining return on investment.
    The Committee also directs the Comptroller General of the 
United States to submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees not later than 1 year after the enactment of this 
act that assesses the extent to which the Department of 
Defense's SIB investment strategy and associated funding will 
result in a shipbuilding industrial base capable of achieving 
the ``2 + 1'' annual submarine construction rate called for in 
the Navy's 30-year shipbuilding plan. This report shall include 
an assessment of: (1) how the Departments of Defense and Navy 
are assessing the return on investment of SIB funding to 
improve submarine construction performance, (2) the extent to 
which the Navy intends to utilize such assessments to inform 
the selection of future SIB projects, and (3) the extent to 
which previously appropriated SIB funding and programmed 
funding in future years, in combination with other key factors, 
are likely to achieve the SIB capacity and throughput to meet 
the Navy's submarine requirements.
    Finally, the Committee has received spend plans from the 
Navy for SIB funding contained in the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47) and prior acts, as 
well as the National Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 
2024 (Public Law 118-50). The Committee notes that such plans 
do not involve the purchase of land or property. The Committee 
directs the Secretary of the Navy to brief the congressional 
defense committees not less than 45 days prior to obligating 
funds that would deviate from those spend plans.
    Domestic Source Content for Navy Shipbuilding Critical 
Components.--The Committee remains concerned with the fragility 
of the domestic shipbuilding supply base and notes the report 
on ``Domestic Source Content for Navy Shipbuilding'' submitted 
to the congressional defense committees in accordance with 
direction accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations 
Act, 2023. Given the long-term impact of shipbuilding programs, 
the Committee believes that understanding and managing the 
domestic supply base is critical. Therefore the Committee 
reiterates direction to the Assistant Secretary of the Navy 
(Research, Development and Acquisition) to submit to the 
congressional defense committees, concurrent with submission of 
the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request, a plan to 
incorporate upfront domestic sourcing requirements for key 
materials, components and subsystems into current and future 
acquisition strategies for shipbuilding programs. Further, the 
report shall identify a supply chain strategy that identifies 
existing horizontal and vertical gaps and redundancies in the 
domestic industrial base to support such acquisition 
strategies, and efforts by the Navy to ensure the domestic 
industrial base and supply chain can address domestic source 
content of Navy shipbuilding requirements. Finally, to the 
extent the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, 
Development and Acquisition) plans to prioritize foreign 
content over domestic content, the Assistant Secretary is 
directed to provide the statutory basis for doing so, including 
a detailed risk assessment of such a strategy, and the cost 
estimate of growing a commensurate domestic capability. Such 
report shall be delivered in unclassified format and may 
contain a classified annex.

    Sonobuoy Minimum Inventory Requirements.--The Committee 
notes the Department of the Navy's increasing utilization of 
sonobuoys in recent years to track submarine threats worldwide. 
The Committee is concerned that the fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request does not adequately fund sonobuoy 
procurement based on validated requirements, which may leave 
the United States vulnerable to adversaries in the undersea 
domain. Accordingly, the Committee directs the Secretary of the 
Navy to submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees, not later than 90 days after the enactment of this 
act, detailing the Navy's strategy to ensure that the inventory 
of sonobuoys satisfies the Navy's Total Munitions Requirement.

                       Procurement, Marine Corps

Budget estimate, 2025...................................  $4,243,863,000
Committee recommendation................................   4,201,143,000

    The Committee recommends an appropriation of 
$4,201,143,000, of which $240,900,000 is designated as being 
for an emergency requirement pursuant to section 
251(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit 
Control Act of 1985. This is $42,720,000 below the budget 
estimate.

                     COMMITTEE RECOMMENDED PROGRAM

    The following table summarizes the budget estimate for this 
appropriation, the Committee recommendation, and the Committee 
recommended adjustments to the budget estimate:

    Amphibious Combat Vehicle.--The Committee understands that 
the Marine Corps has identified cost savings within the 
Amphibious Combat Vehicle [ACV] Family of Vehicles program of 
approximately $100,000,000 between fiscal years 2024 and 2025. 
The Committee expects the Commandant of the Marine Corps to 
negotiate the best price for the ACV-30mm gun variant and apply 
these identified savings to procure additional vehicles in 
fiscal year 2025.
    Radio Systems.--The Committee is concerned with the Marine 
Corps persistent reprioritization of requirements and 
continuing changes in acquisition strategies for radio 
programs, as exemplified by the Marine Corps' decision in 
previous fiscal years to defer the procurement of several radio 
systems. Therefore, the Committee directs the Commandant of the 
Marine Corps to provide the congressional defense committees 
quarterly program execution briefs on the radio system programs 
within this appropriation. The Committee further directs the 
Commandant of the Marine Corps to provide the congressional 
defense committees, not later than 90 days after enactment of 
this act, an updated acquisition strategy that includes the 
planned resourcing investments for radio systems across the 
Future Years Defense Program.

    MH-139A.--The Committee believes the Department of the Air 
Force's decision to remove procurement funding for MH-139A 
helicopters across the Future Years Defense Program will 
preclude the recapitalization of critical assets and leave 
concerning capability shortfalls at Andrews Air Force Base, 
Fairchild Air Force Base, Duke Field, and Maxwell Air Force 
Base. Therefore, Committee directs the Secretary of the Air 
Force to deliver a report to the congressional defense 
committees not later than 60 days after the enactment of this 
act which explains how the vertical lift requirements for 
distinguished visitor lift, aircrew survival training, flight 
test operations, and training will be met in the 2030s absent 
continued MH-139A procurement.
    Airborne Early Warning and Control Aircraft.--The Committee 
continues to strongly support airborne early warning and 
control aircraft recapitalization. Congress has been a strong 
proponent of the E-7 Wedgetail program, first by establishing 
the program as new start following enactment of the Department 
of Defense Appropriations Act via approval of a reprogramming 
request in fiscal year 2022, and then by accelerating the 
program by providing an additional $200,000,000 in both fiscal 
years 2023 and 2024. Despite the additional funding provided by 
Congress, the program is delayed compared to the original 
program schedule. While the E-7 program continues, the 
Committee expects the Department of the Air Force to retain 
additional E-3 aircraft prior to the delivery of E-7 Wedgetail 
aircraft to prevent gaps in airborne warning and control 
capabilities relied upon by the Combatant Commands. 
Accordingly, the Committee supports section 142 of the National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 (Public Law 118-
31) and section 131 of S. 4638, the National Defense 
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025, as reported, which 
prohibit the reduction of the E-3 inventory unless specific 
conditions are satisfied.
    Air Force Tanker Recapitalization.--The Committee notes 
that the average age of the current fleet of KC-135 aerial 
refueling tankers is nearly 60 years old. The Committee urges 
the Air Force to continue to prioritize the recapitalization of 
the aging tanker fleet and supports the Air Force plan to 
continue to replace up to 15 KC-135s per year with modern 
aircraft. However, the Committee is concerned with the lack of 
detail on the Air Force's recapitalization plan in future years 
to ensure sufficient aerial refueling capabilities to support 
operational and contingency requirements. Accordingly, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to provide a 
report to the congressional defense committees not later than 
120 days from the enactment of this act detailing the long-term 
KC-135 recapitalization plan for the active and reserve 
components. This report shall include the following: (1) the 
procurement and divestment plans or actions the Air Force plans 
to implement by fiscal year for the next 20 years, (2) the 
actions the Air Force will take to ensure that required 
operational readiness rates are maintained during any planned 
divestment or recapitalization affecting KC-135 aircraft, and 
(3) an analysis of how the procurement and divestment plans or 
actions the Air Force plans to implement ensure the 
interoperability and operational relevance of the reserve 
components in the total force.
    Classic Associations.--The Committee notes that there are 
six Air National Guard [ANG] units that operate under classic 
associations with their active-duty counterparts. While these 
ANG units do not own aircraft, they are operationally 
integrated into the active unit that maintains operational 
control of the mission set. The Committee understands that 
informal agreements exist between active and guard units that 
provide small numbers of backup aircraft to the Guard units. 
The Committee notes that the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47) directed the 
Secretary of the Air Force to pursue a memorandum of agreement 
to formally recognize such agreements. The Committee directs 
the Secretary of the Air Force to brief the congressional 
defense committees on the status of these agreements not later 
than 60 days after the enactment of this act.

    Space Launch.--Access to space remains a critical national 
security priority and concern for the Committee. The Committee 
supports the Department's plan for phase three of the National 
Security Space Launch [NSSL] program and acknowledges the 
recent award of lane one task orders to three vendors. However, 
the Committee notes that while the Space Force and the National 
Reconnaissance Office both have small launch service contracts 
in place, they are rarely used. The Committee further notes 
that the Space Force will only launch one payload through its 
small launch fiscal year 2024 Orbital Services Program [OSP]. 
The Committee believes that in a threat environment which 
requires tactical responsiveness, small launch providers are 
most likely to provide this capability. Therefore, the 
Committee recommends the Space Force include a greater 
diversity of providers and more competition as phase three of 
the NSSL program moves forward. To these ends, the Committee is 
also concerned by the Department's decision to request no 
funding for the OSP in fiscal year 2025. This program is 
critical to having a rapidly responsive launch capability, and 
to maintaining a competitive and innovative industrial base.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air 
Force, in coordination with the Director of the National 
Reconnaissance Office, to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees not later than 90 days after the enactment 
of this act. The report shall identify by fiscal year each 
launch (including vendor and payload) procured through the OSP, 
the NRO's equivalent, or other programs where the payload 
requirements could be met by OSP providers. Additionally, the 
report shall include a plan to: make effective use of the OSP 
and the NRO's equivalent; identify opportunities for small 
launch providers through the Future Years Defense Program; and 
prioritize robust funding for the program over the Future Years 
Defense Program. The report shall be submitted in unclassified 
form but may include a classified annex.
    Use of National Security Space Launch Program.--The 
Committee continues to direct the Secretary of Defense and the 
Director of National Intelligence to utilize the Space Force 
launch enterprise phase three contract for all National 
Security Space Launch [NSSL] class missions unless they certify 
to the congressional defense and intelligence committees that 
commercial launch or delivery on orbit procurement for a 
designated mission is in the national security interest of the 
United States government and provide the rationale for such a 
determination.
    Additionally, the Committee is concerned with the number of 
launches that the National Reconnaissance Office awards outside 
of the NSSL contract and in violation of previous certification 
requirements first mandated in the Joint Explanatory Statement 
accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, 2021 
(Public Law 116-260), and restated in each fiscal year through 
the Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the Department of 
Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47). 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Director of the National 
Reconnaissance Office to submit a report to the congressional 
defense committees and the congressional intelligence 
committees, not later than 90 days after enactment of this act, 
that identifies each launch by fiscal year that has been 
procured outside of the NSSL phase two contract over the life 
of the contract, and that are currently planned to be procured 
outside of the NSSL phase three contract. The report shall 
include each vendor and payload. This report shall be submitted 
in unclassified form, but may include a classified annex.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Functional Transfers.--Funding in the Defense Production 
Act Purchases [DPA] account has historically been provided 
without specific delineation by effort, allowing the Department 
to prioritize the most pressing efforts within the year of 
execution. This has led to significant funding backlogs and 
lack of programmatic predictability for the defense industrial 
base. Therefore, the Committee has repeatedly emphasized the 
need to accelerate the execution of DPA resources in previous 
years and has recommended funding reductions due to large, 
unexecuted balances and a contracting backlog of up to 18 
months. The Committee notes that in response to these concerns, 
the Undersecretary of Defense (Acquisition and Sustainment) 
significantly improved these contracting actions and this 
account has begun to achieve obligation rates consistent with 
Department standards.
    However, based on the most recent fiscal year 2024 and 2025 
spend plans for DPA, the Committee is concerned that the 
Department intends to deviate from its efforts to ensure timely 
execution of funds. Coupled with the substantial increases in 
DPA appropriations in the past four fiscal years, the Committee 
believes that additional transparency and accounting rigor is 
warranted in the DPA appropriation account structure.
    Therefore, the Committee's recommendation includes a series 
of functional transfers to align DPA resources against projects 
identified by the Department that are executable in fiscal year 
2025. These functional transfers are designated as 
``Congressional Special Interest Items'' as defined elsewhere 
in this report.
    Microelectronics.--The Committee notes that 
microelectronics, including printed circuit boards, 
semiconductors, switch technology, and critical minerals, 
including nuclear grade graphite and gallium, have been 
identified as key focus areas for the Defense Production Act to 
ensure a strong domestic industrial base. The Secretary of 
Defense is encouraged to prioritize Defense Production Act 
investments that support domestic production in these key areas 
to fill strategic gaps in the supply chain.
    Defense Production Act Investments in Munitions and 
Critical Materials.--The Committee remains concerned that the 
Defense Production Act Purchases account is not being fully 
utilized to address clearly identified vulnerabilities within 
the U.S. munitions production industrial base, as well as the 
sourcing of critical minerals and rare earth elements. 
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Department to 
prioritize investment in munition production facilities through 
the Defense Production Act Purchases account across the Future 
Years Defense Program.
    Printed Circuit Boards.--The Committee continues to believe 
that printed circuit boards [PCBs] are key components of 
advanced defense technologies and that a strong domestic 
defense industrial base includes the ability to fabricate PCBs. 
On March 27, 2023, the President determined that PCBs are 
critical technology items essential to national defense and 
found that action to expand domestic production capabilities 
for PCBs is necessary to avert a critical technology item 
shortfall that would severely impair our National defense 
capability. The Committee encourages continued investment 
across the future years' defense program in this key technology 
area.
    Tetranitrocarbazole.--Ensuring independence from foreign 
supply chains and the integrity of materials supplied to the 
American warfighter is a key objective of Defense Production 
Act purchases. The Committee understands that the Department of 
Defense is dependent upon a single-source foreign supplier for 
Tetranitrocarbazole [TNC], which is a critical material. 
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to 
explore the establishment of a reliable domestic source of TNC.
    Hypersonic Air Breathing Manufacturing Industrial Base 
Expansion.--The Committee continues to support the Department's 
use of the authorities provided in Title III of the Defense 
Production Act to strengthen domestic industrial base 
capabilities essential to national defense. The Committee 
further recognizes the important role of the DPA to incentivize 
the creation, expansion, and preservation of the defense 
industrial base. The Committee notes that investments in the 
industrial base supply chain supporting air breathing 
hypersonic missile structures have the potential to drive 
efficiencies across multiple defense programs in alignment with 
the Department's recently published National Defense Industrial 
Strategy. The Committee encourages such investments across the 
future years' defense program to leverage design practices, 
assembly processes, and automated technologies developed for 
commercial aerostructures in support of these defense programs.

and prototypes, system development and demonstration, 
operational systems development; as well as software and 
digital technology pilot programs.
    The President's fiscal year 2025 budget requests a total of 
$143,156,590,000 for research, development, test and evaluation 
appropriations.

            REPROGRAMMING GUIDANCE FOR ACQUISITION ACCOUNTS

    The Secretary of Defense is directed to continue to follow 
the reprogramming guidance as specified in the report 
accompanying the House version of the Department of Defense 
appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008 (House Report 110-
279). The dollar threshold for reprogramming funds shall be 
$15,000,000 for procurement and research, development, test and 
evaluation.
    Also, the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) is 
directed to continue to provide the congressional defense 
committees quarterly, spreadsheet-based DD Form 1416 reports 
for service and defense-wide accounts in titles III and IV of 
this act. Reports for titles III and IV shall comply with 
guidance specified in the conference report accompanying the 
Department of Defense Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2006. 
The Department shall continue to follow the limitation that 
prior approval reprogrammings are set at either the specified 
dollar threshold or 20 percent of the procurement or research, 
development, test and evaluation line, whichever is less. These 
thresholds are cumulative from the base for reprogramming value 
as modified by any adjustments. Therefore, if the combined 
value of transfers into or out of a procurement (P-1), or a 
research, development, test and evaluation (R-1) line exceeds 
the identified threshold, the Secretary of Defense must submit 
a prior approval reprogramming to the congressional defense 
committees. In addition, guidelines on the application of prior 
approval reprogramming procedures for congressional special 
interest items are established elsewhere in this explanatory 
statement.

                           FUNDING INCREASES

    The funding increases outlined in the tables accompanying 
each appropriation account shall be provided only for the 
specific purposes indicated in the tables of Committee 
Recommended Adjustments. The Committee directs that funding 
increases shall be competitively awarded, or provided to 
programs that have received competitive awards in the past.

   RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION SPECIAL INTEREST ITEMS

    Items for which additional funds have been recommended or 
items for which funding is specifically reduced as shown in the 
tables detailing Committee Recommended Adjustments or in 
paragraphs using the phrase ``only for'' or ``only to'' are 
congressional special interest items for the purpose of the 
Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Each of these items must 
be carried on the DD Form 1414 at the stated amount, as 
specifically addressed elsewhere in this report.

          RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, TEST AND EVALUATION OVERVIEW

    Software and Digital Technology Pilot Programs.--The 
Secretary of Defense shall submit bi-annual reports to the 
congressional defense committees detailing the Department's 
assessment for each of the programs included in section 8102 of 
title VIII of this act. The report shall remain consistent with 
the specific reporting requirements outlined in the Joint 
Explanatory Statement accompanying the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47). The Committee 
notes that recent reports have shown marked improvement in the 
metrics reported and quantitative assessments of the pilot 
programs. The Committee further notes that the fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request includes a request for a new pilot 
program within the United States Cyber Command [USCYBERCOM] 
portfolio. However, while the Committee believes that this 
program is too hardware centric to justify its inclusion in the 
pilot program in fiscal year 2025, it does recognize that a 
program within USCYBERCOM could be valuable in future budget 
submissions. Further, the Committee recognizes the significant 
investment that the Department has made in its Advanced 
Analytics [ADVANA] program and therefore recommends 
transferring funds requested for ADVANA into the software and 
digital technology pilot program, as detailed in the tables of 
Committee Recommended Adjustments.
    Finally, the Committee has identified inconsistencies in 
justification materials for the software pilot programs 
submitted with the fiscal year 2025 President's budget request 
and directs the Undersecretary of Defense (Comptroller) to 
ensure that justification materials for all Software and 
Digital Technology Pilot programs clearly delineate the 
resources and activities within the justification materials 
that would have been traditionally aligned to the operations 
and maintenance, procurement, and research, development, test 
and evaluation accounts.
    Disclosure Requirements for Recipients of Research and 
Development Funds.--The Committee urges the full disclosure of 
Federal support and transparency by recipients of Department of 
Defense research and development grants and understands Title 
10, United States Code, Section 4207, now explicitly provides 
effective disclosure requirements for these purposes. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, not 
later than 60 days after the date of enactment of this act, to 
provide a report to the congressional defense committees 
detailing plans for ensuring compliance with Title 10, United 
States Code, Section 4207, including enforcement actions, 
related to disclosure of Federal funds.
    Reporting on Mid-Tier Acquisition and Rapid Prototyping 
Programs.--The Committee remains supportive of efforts to 
accelerate the delivery of capability to the warfighter, 
including through the use of rapid acquisition authorities and 
contracting strategies provided for in existing law, such as 
the use of middle-tier acquisition of warfighter capabilities 
(``section 804''). The Committee notes that this fiscal year, 
most programs using MTA will reach the end of their five year 
authority, at which point they are expected to field capability 
or transition to an alternative acquisition pathway.
    Further, the Committee notes that the United States 
Government Accountability Office [GAO] issued its Weapon 
Systems Annual Assessment in June 2024. The report highlights 
decisions by the Department to continue conducting linear 
development and fielding processes, such as 5 years of rapid 
prototyping followed by 5 years of rapid fielding or subsequent 
entry into the major capability pathway at a developmental 
stage. Contrary to congressional intent when establishing MTAs, 
this creates programs with an average 10-year development cycle 
for major capability acquisition programs. Some programs, like 
the B-52 Commercial Engine Replacement Program are not expected 
to hit initial operating capability until at least 14 years 
after initiation as an MTA.
    These concerns have been raised previously by this 
Committee, and concerns remain that MTAs designed to field 
mature capabilities or rapidly prototype technologies, are 
instead being used to circumvent traditional reporting 
requirements for major acquisition programs without resulting 
in capability deliveries in a timely manner. MTAs were designed 
to field capabilities at speed, yet the programs utilizing the 
MTA pathway have largely not achieved that. The GAO report 
notes that the program officials for the Army's Extended Range 
Cannon Artillery [ERCA] program, for example were quoted as 
saying that ``the 5-year window was too short to develop a 
system as innovative as ERCA.''
    Therefore, as in prior years, the Committee directs the 
Under Secretaries of Defense (Research and Engineering) and 
(Acquisition and Sustainment), in coordination with the service 
acquisition executives for the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Space 
Force, to provide to the congressional defense committees, with 
submission of the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request, 
a complete list of approved acquisition programs by year of 
initiation, and programs pending approval in fiscal year 2026, 
utilizing prototyping or accelerated acquisition authorities, 
the rationale for each selected acquisition strategy, a cost 
estimate and contracting strategy, the planned date for initial 
operational capability, and the expected acquisition pathway 
for transition for each such program. Further, the Under 
Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) and the Assistant 
Secretaries (Financial Management and Comptroller) for the 
Army, Navy, and Air Force, are directed to certify full funding 
of the acquisition strategies for each of these programs in the 
fiscal year 2025 President's budget request, including their 
test strategies; finally, the Director, Operational Test and 
Evaluation, is directed to certify to the congressional defense 
committees the appropriateness of the services' planned test 
strategies for such programs, to include a risk assessment.
    Further, the Committee directs the Undersecretary of 
Defense (Intelligence and Security) to certify to the 
congressional defense committees that the services have 
conducted a valid lifecycle threat review. To the extent that 
the respective service acquisition executives, service 
financial manager and comptrollers, and Director, Operational 
Test and Evaluation, provided the information requested above 
with submission of the fiscal year 2025 President's budget, any 
variations thereto should be included with the fiscal year 2026 
submission. In addition, the services' financial manager and 
comptrollers are directed to identify the full costs for 
prototyping units by individual item in the research, 
development, test and evaluation budget exhibits for the budget 
year as well as the Future Years Defense Program.
    Other Transaction Agreements.--Pursuant to section 873 of 
the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2019 (Public Law 115-232), as amended by section 
819 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 
2020 (Public Law 116-92) and the Joint Explanatory Statement 
accompanying the Department of Defense and Labor, Health and 
Human Services, and Education Appropriations Act for 2019 
(Public Law 115-245), the Department of Defense is required to 
meet annual and quarterly reporting requirements regarding the 
use of Other Transaction Authority [OTA]. The Committee notes 
the growing usage of OTAs and their important role in 
increasing the ability of the Department to do business with 
non-traditional defense contractors.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Under Secretary of 
Defense (Acquisition and Sustainment) to continue the 
previously established reporting requirements. Further, the 
Committee directs the Under Secretary of Defense (Acquisition 
and Sustainment), not later than 60 days following enactment of 
this act, to submit a report to the congressional defense 
committees on the Department's use of OTA agreements in fiscal 
year 2024, to include an analysis of the relative success rates 
of follow-on production contracts initiated after the 
conclusion of initial OTA agreements in comparison to lessons 
learned from conventional Federal Acquisition Regulation-based 
acquisitions. Further, the report shall identify the use of 
consortia and individually identify with associated dollar 
amounts, the awards to individual vendors under an agreement 
with a consortium.
    Multi-Domain Artillery Cannon System.--The fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request includes $66,915,000 in the 
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Army account to 
begin development of the Multi-Doman Artillery Cannon System 
[MDACS], which is intended to address cruise missile and 
unmanned aircraft system threats. This program has been 
characterized as the further maturation of the Strategic 
Capabilities Office's Hypervelocity Gun Weapon System [HGWS], 
which includes system elements that have been in development 
since at least fiscal year 2013. The fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request includes $165,075,000 for this 
effort within the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Defense-wide account.
    The Committee is concerned that the acquisition strategy 
for MDACS and HGWS, as presented, would extend the resourcing 
of a developmental program from one prototyping entity within 
the Department of Defense to another prototyping organization 
without a validated requirement, acquisition strategy, or 
identified Program Office to test, field, operate, and sustain 
the new capability. While the Committee remains supportive of 
the rapid prototyping authorities provided to the Department of 
Defense, it has received insufficient budget justification to 
support continued development of MDACS and HGWS in fiscal year 
2025.
    While the Committee acknowledges that gun-based precision 
munitions have the potential to provide a low-cost and mobile 
alternative to traditional high-performance interceptor 
systems, it lacks sufficient justification to indicate that 
this particular system has a viable path to operational use.
    Recognizing that improving the strength of the Joint Force 
is inextricably linked to the requirements and resourcing 
process, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to 
provide a briefing to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than 90 days after the enactment of this act, that 
identifies which of the technologies developed within the HGWS 
system, if any, are being considered for integration into 
future battery formations.
    Advanced Sensors Application Program.--The Committee 
understands that the Department of Defense, at congressional 
direction, transitioned the Advanced Sensors Application 
Program [ASAP] to the Department of the Air Force earlier this 
year. The Committee notes that, since this is a transition year 
for the program, neither the Department of the Navy nor the 
Department of the Air Force requested funding for ASAP in the 
fiscal year 2025 President's budget request. The Committee 
expects the Secretary of the Air Force to appropriately budget 
for ASAP in the Future Years Defense Program and supports the 
related direction in the classified annex of the report 
accompanying S.4638, the National Defense Authorization Act for 
Fiscal Year 2025, as reported by the Senate Armed Services 
Committee (Senate Report 118-188).

    Directed Energy Investments.--The Committee is encouraged 
by the Department of the Army's enduring directed energy 
strategy, which involves a more strategic approach that 
emphasizes ongoing prototype development, testing, and soldier 
user evaluations. This strategy leverages existing flexible 
acquisition authorities to rapidly field the technology and 
gain immediate soldier feedback--as exemplified by the 
operational deployment of the Directed Energy Maneuver Short-
Range Air Defense system and Palletized High Energy Laser 
system. While the Committee recognizes and appreciates the 
significant potential and operational value of directed energy 
systems for air defense and counter-UAS capabilities, the 
technical maturity and scalability of these systems remains an 
operational challenge, with issues such as power generation, 
thermal management, and beam control warranting further 
development and maturation.
    The Committee recommendation includes $77,281,000 for the 
continued development of the Indirect Fire Protection 
Capability-High Power Microwave, the Directed Energy Maneuver 
Short-Range Air Defense systems and Army Multi-Purpose High 
Energy Laser. The Committee remains concerned with the status 
of the Indirect Fire Protection Capability-High Energy Laser 
program and encourages the Department of the Army to reevaluate 
the program in preparation of the fiscal year 2026 President's 
budget request to ensure the program is aligned and consistent 
with the current enduring directed energy strategy.
    Technologies to Join Advanced Materials.--The Committee 
encourages the development of technologies to join advanced 
materials for demonstration and implementation in critical 
warfighting systems such that those systems can be readily 
recycled and re-entered into the domestic materials supply 
chain.
    Metal Forging Innovation.--The Committee understands that 
forgings are essential to national security and the performance 
of critical defense systems. The Committee notes that greater 
investment in forging innovation and resilience is necessary to 
maintain warfighter preparedness and a modernized defense 
industrial ecosystem.
    Alternative Cement Solutions.--The Committee supports the 
continued development of technologies to develop, demonstrate, 
and deploy alternative solutions for cement that drive 
decarbonization, increased supply chain resiliency, and 
accelerate in-theater fabrication through indigenous materials 
and advanced structural designs.
    Distributed Electromagnetic Warfare and Radio Frequency 
Sensors.--The Committee supports continued growth of the Army 
Research Laboratory's collaboration with academia in the 
development of technology to enable and validate new, 
distributed electromagnetic warfare and radio frequency sensors 
to provide performance improvement over existing architecture. 
These advances will enable new systems to meet the near-term 
enduring battlespace challenges of survivability, redundancy, 
frequency exclusivity, and GPS-dependence.
    Novel Printed Armament Components.--The Committee 
recognizes the Army's critical role in providing advanced 
hybrid technologies for armaments that offer overmatch in 
lethality against adversaries. Maintaining a strong armaments 
technology base will require continued investments to rapidly 
design, develop, manufacture, and integrate new processes and 
applications for current and future armament and munition 
systems. The Committee supports the continued development of 
enabling printed electronics, energetics, materials, and 
sensors for munition systems.
    Pathfinder.--The Committee supports the Army's efforts to 
implement the Pathfinder program to transition innovative 
research and technologies into operational use more 
efficiently. The Committee notes that Pathfinder has a mandate 
to capitalize on university-based, applied research by 
incorporating direct soldier insights in the formulation and 
execution of projects. Therefore, the Committee recommends an 
increase of $17,500,000 to support Army university research 
partnerships exploring next-generation technologies using a 
bottom-up approach maximizing individual soldier feedback and 
participation.
    Improved Troop Seats for H-60 Rotorcraft.--The Committee 
recognizes the importance of improved troop and gunner seats in 
H-60 rotorcraft to better support Army aircrew readiness and 
mitigate personnel injuries. The Committee understands the Army 
has integrated the side-facing multi-functioning operator seat 
in new production UH-60M Black Hawk rotorcraft to address this 
concern, however, the Army continues to maintain and operate 
older legacy UH-60L rotorcraft that would require improved 
troop and gunner seats with the majority of these being 
operated by the Army National Guard. Accordingly, the Committee 
directs the Chief of Staff of the Army, in coordination with 
the Chief of the National Guard Bureau to provide a briefing to 
the congressional defense committees, not later than 60 days 
after enactment of this act that addresses the advisability and 
feasibility for upgrading legacy UH-60L aircraft with improved 
troop and gunner seats. The report shall include analysis of 
other military service gunner seats, as well as any cost data 
related to required air-worthiness certification requirements.
    Enhanced Electrolyte Product Studies.--The Committee 
encourages the Secretary of the Army to evaluate existing 
methods of oral hydration for recruits in basic training and 
assess alternative commercially-available options that may 
provide soldiers with better performance and enhanced 
prevention of heat stress at lower cost.
    High Strength Ballistic Glass Fiber Development.--The 
Committee notes the importance of having domestic sources for 
high performance glass fiber technology to accelerate the 
development of next generation ballistic protection and 
aerospace capabilities. The Committee encourages the Secretary 
of the Army to increase investment to further development of 
innovative ultra-high melting temperature technology to 
accelerate next-generation glass fiber capability required for 
supporting ballistic protection, hypersonics, and advanced 
computing.
    Hydra-70 Rocket Product Improvements.--The Committee 
recognizes the importance of hydra-70 rockets as a critical 
air-to-ground munition for Army rotorcraft and also notes its 
operational effectiveness as a low-cost interceptor to mitigate 
threats from unmanned aircraft systems. The Committee 
encourages the Secretary of the Army to sufficiently resource 
any obsolescence requirements and work to accelerate 
qualification of the high explosive anti-tank anti-personnel 
anti-material warhead.
    Landmine Warfare.--The Committee notes that the degradation 
of the U.S. landmine stockpile could create unacceptable risk 
to mission and the joint force. The Committee further notes 
that the Army is currently developing the XM250 as the primary 
program of record for close terrain shaping obstacles [CTSO] 
that is compliant with current Department of Defense landmine 
policy and understands that the use of CTSO enables friendly 
forces to disrupt, fix, turn, and block enemy forces, in either 
the offense or defense. The Committee supports the continued 
development of the XM-250 objective capability which would 
provide joint force commanders bottom attack, top attack, 
networked, and man-in-the-loop features--among other 
capabilities.
    Verified Inherent Control.--The Committee supports and 
encourages the development of critical technologies to verify 
the end product produced by additive manufacturing. This 
research is critical to ensuring that additively manufactured 
components meet performance specifications and mitigate cyber 
vulnerabilities.
    Digital Airworthiness Certification.--The Committee 
understands the Army's airworthiness certification program has 
historically been, and currently is, a document-based process 
of defining requirements along with defining tests, analyses, 
and demonstrations for showing verification of airworthiness 
criteria. The Committee supports efforts to develop solutions 
necessary for the airworthiness process to be conducted within 
digital engineering systems and as part of digital acquisition 
processes.
    Infrastructure Smart Technology.--The Committee encourages 
the Director of the Army Engineer Research and Development 
Center to accelerate development of infrastructure health 
monitoring systems and integrate the use of digital twin 
technology to expand analytical capabilities to ensure military 
and installation bridges remain safely in operation and perform 
reliably for civilian and military traffic.
    Soldier Survivability in Airborne Operations.--The 
Committee notes the long and short-term impact of physical 
force and physiological stress placed on airborne personnel 
during jump training and encourages the Secretary of the Army 
to resource development of a wearable system that monitors 
airborne personnel in real-time through the Tactical Assault 
Kit.
    Multi-Domain Capabilities in the Army National Guard.--The 
Committee understands the Army National Guard is the combat 
reserve of the U.S. Army and has served as an operational force 
for the past two decades and not just a strategic reserve. The 
Committee recognizes the need to properly resource ready, well 
equipped, and integrated Army National Guard units with the 
active Component and is aware the report accompanying S. 4638, 
the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2025, as 
reported by the Senate Armed Services Committee, directs the 
Secretary of the Army to provide a briefing to the Committees 
on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of 
Representatives on the Army's plans to expand multi-domain task 
force [MDTF] capabilities into Army National Guard force 
structure. The Committee directs the Secretary of the Army to 
include the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and the Senate as part of this briefing 
requirement.

    Nanolayered Film Capacitors.--The Committee commends the 
Department of the Navy, specifically the Office of Naval 
Research, for its investments in nanolayered plastic film 
processing technology. Innovative nanolayered film for 
capacitors can increase energy storage and device operation 
temperatures in a wide variety of electrical applications. 
These investments are necessary to maintain leading edge 
technology, strengthen the domestic industrial base, and limit 
our reliance on foreign material acquisitions which currently 
average around 80 million pounds of capacitor film imported 
from foreign supply chains each year. The Committee encourages 
the Chief of Naval Research to continue leading the effort to 
develop and qualify new nanolayered films for capacitors.
    Anti-Corrosion Nanotechnology.--The Committee recognizes 
the large cost burdens associated with corrosion prevention and 
corrosion-related maintenance activities of the Navy's fleet of 
ships and submarines. Considering the vast maritime domain of 
the Indo-Pacific region, fleet assets operating in this area of 
responsibility are particularly vulnerable to corrosion and 
require the development and application of new technologies 
that will increase the corrosion resistance and ultimately 
increase our fleet's operational availability. Therefore, the 
Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to accelerate 
investment in research and demonstrations of nanotechnology-
based innovations that can provide improved corrosion 
resistance to the fleet, thereby reducing maintenance 
requirements, and increasing operational availability.
    Long-Term Autonomy for Underwater Surveillance.--The 
Committee recognizes the promise of autonomous underwater 
robotics for both challenging and repetitive tasks. In 
particular, the Committee understands that the Navy has 
identified port security, environmental monitoring, and 
infrastructure maintenance tasks as ideal candidates for 
integrating the use of underwater robots. While industry and 
academic partners are making significant investments and 
continuing to realize enhanced autonomous capabilities for 
other use cases, gaps in the solutions exist when unique Naval 
needs are considered. The underwater domain is a particularly 
challenging environment for most technology because the 
uncertainty and dynamics of water make maneuvering, inspection, 
and object manipulation more difficult than other domains. 
Additionally, communications are generally limited to 
acoustics. Turbidity prevents clear perception in most 
locations, and salt water corrodes most hardware.
    The Committee understands that over the last several years, 
the commercial market has provided hardware that handles 
environmental factors and some sensing solutions, but the 
remaining coordination, control, sensing, and communications 
issues require fundamentally new artificial intelligence. To 
maintain autonomy for long periods, the system must be able to 
dynamically change its goals and learn how to accomplish its 
mission in the face of changing environments and uncertain 
sensor information. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
Secretary of the Navy to increase its investment in autonomous 
operations and artificial intelligence for the long-term 
operations of underwater vehicles and robotics.
    Modular Mineral-to-Metal Recovery.--The Committee supports 
the development of technologies that advance novel solutions 
for sustainable modular metal recovery processing and 
refinement units for critical minerals and rare earth elements 
that drive the expansion of domestic supply chain resiliency 
and provide a pathway towards increased reliance of metals 
recovery in allied nations.
    Seafloor Sensor Simulation.--The Committee recognizes the 
importance of high-resolution and sensor-realistic three-
dimensional [3D] simulation environments to the operations of 
the Navy's Unmanned Underwater Vehicle [UUV] fleet, and other 
underwater operations. However, the Committee is concerned that 
there are capability gaps and unmet requirements with the 
current method of manually generating simulation environments 
for subsea mission planning and operations. Therefore, the 
Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to review the 
current simulation system's limitations and explore the 
efficacy of deploying a more sophisticated machine learning 
based seafloor sensor simulation system that enables 
automatically generated high-resolution and sensor-realistic 3D 
environments for training UUVs
    Undersea Sensing and Communications.--The Committee 
commends the work being done by the Department of the Navy 
through the Naval Undersea Warfare Centers [NUWC] to provide 
research, development, test and evaluation, engineering, 
analysis, assessment, and fleet support capabilities for 
submarines, autonomous underwater systems, and undersea weapon 
systems. Our nation's NUWCs are indispensable in the effort to 
advance and adopt emerging technologies in support of undersea 
warfare. The Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to 
continue supporting the NUWCs and increase investment in 
undersea sensing, communications, situational awareness and 
autonomy for unmanned underwater vehicles.
    Expansion of Thermoplastic Composites.--The Committee notes 
that investment in next-generation materials development is 
essential to advancing the capabilities of the domestic 
industrial base, particularly within the area of advanced 
thermoplastic composites for aerospace applications. Increased 
use of thermoplastic composites may reduce costs, reduce 
manufacturing lead-times, increase platform efficiency and 
decrease dependence on some foreign sources of certain critical 
minerals, such as titanium. As such, the Committee encourages 
the Secretary of the Navy to collaborate with the National 
Aeronautics and Space Administration, Oak Ridge National 
Laboratory, Air Force Research Laboratory, and the recently 
designated American Aerospace Manufacturing Materials Center 
for the domestic research, development, and manufacturing of 
thermoplastic composites, including activities that prioritize 
new domestic supply and manufacturing technologies.
    Expeditionary Advanced Manufacturing for Fleet Maintenance 
Coatings.--The Committee commends the Department of the Navy 
for pursuing innovative solutions for expeditionary maintenance 
technologies for its ships and submarines and notes the Navy 
recently held its first ever Repair Technology Exercise that 
successfully brought together over sixty vendors to expand the 
ability of the Navy to conduct expeditionary maintenance. The 
Committee believes there is an opportunity to pursue these 
types of advancements in preventative hull coating systems that 
can be applied during construction and scaled for operational 
level maintenance by sailors underway. Therefore, the Committee 
encourages the Secretary of the Navy to pursue preventive 
coating technologies that can be scaled for use in forward 
deployed maintenance environments to decrease repair 
requirements in longer scheduled maintenance availabilities.
    Maintenance Technologies Supporting Operational 
Readiness.--The Committee supports the development and 
application of critical maintenance technologies across the 
areas of shipboard repair, material availability, and 
inspection. Through the application of automated tooling, 
advanced manufacturing, augmented or virtual reality and 
improved inspection technologies, it is imperative that the 
Navy's investments in maintenance technologies keep pace with 
the developments made in commercial production lines and repair 
facilities. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Secretary 
of the Navy to ensure that sufficient investment is made to 
modernize our Nation's public and private shipyards.
    Hypersonic Lethality.--The Committee commends the 
Department of Defense for its continued support for the 
development and fielding of hypersonics weapons systems, 
especially the Navy's Conventional Prompt Strike [CPS] program. 
CPS will be a surface and subsurface launched munition designed 
to strike long distance targets with a kinetic energy 
projectile warhead. Given the uniqueness of the weapon system, 
the Committee is concerned that the lethality of such a warhead 
at hypersonic speeds has not yet been realized. To improve this 
understanding, the Committee encourages the Secretary of the 
Navy to leverage existing modeling, simulation, and analysis 
tools and configure them to improve the lethality of hypersonic 
systems across a wide-range of launch profiles and flight 
paths.
    Digital High Frequency Communication Augmentation.--The 
Committee notes the increase in the use of commercial 
communication services across the Department of Defense, 
particularly with satellite communications. However, the 
Committee notes that the same adoption of commercial 
communication services has not occurred within the terrestrial 
digital high frequency [HF] space. The Committee believes that 
adoption of commercial HF services to augment the Department's 
existing infrastructure would add capacity and increase 
resiliency through node density and geographic separation of 
transmit and receive sites. Further, the Committee notes that 
HF provides an effective alternative to satellite beyond-line-
of-sight communications and for a distributed force like the 
Navy, is an important communications transport mechanism. 
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy 
to assess the viability of HF augmentation through the 
procurement of commercial services.
    Common X-Band Transmitter.--The Committee notes that in 
2021 the Department of the Navy awarded an engineering and 
manufacturing development contract for a new MK 9 Tracker 
Illuminator System for integration into ships carrying the 
Evolved Seasparrow Missile. The MK 9 transmitter/ illuminator 
is designed to support new configurations providing scalability 
in transmitted power and flexibility in waveform transmission. 
The Committee believes this system can be adapted to address 
alternate fire control system variants where obsolescence has 
not been addressed and help to provide commonality amongst fire 
control systems across multiple variants of surface ships 
within the U.S. Navy's Fleet and the fleets of allies that 
operate similar weapon systems. Therefore, the Committee 
encourages the Secretary of the Navy to assess the feasibility 
of scaling the MK 9 system across other fire control solutions.
    IFF Cryptographic Modernization for Small UAS.--The 
Committee notes that in 2024, the National Security Agency 
[NSA] mandated cryptographic modernization 2 [CM2] for all NSA-
certified encryption systems. Further, the Committee notes that 
with the proliferation of small unmanned systems, the effort to 
maintain compliance is an increasing burden on the Services. 
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy 
to ensure that small unmanned systems are CM2 compliant in an 
effort to maintain interoperability with Identification Friend 
or Foe systems and avoid fratricide and unnecessary casualties.
    Enhanced Maritime Monitoring System.--The Committee 
supports the expansion of maritime domain awareness programs, 
including coastal surveillance systems that are currently 
supporting building partner capacity programs countering 
Chinese expansion in the Indo-Pacific region. These systems 
fill a capability gap for semi-portable, autonomous maritime 
collection from terrestrial sites. The systems, with integrated 
Automatic Identification System, solid state X-band frequency 
diversity radar, high-resolution electro-optical/infrared 
cameras, and radio frequency energy direction finding, satisfy 
Indo Pacific Command requirements to monitor maritime 
chokepoints or regions with limited maneuver space. The 
Committee is aware that these systems are operational and 
provides Combatant Commanders with critical information. The 
Committee supports the expansion of these systems to support 
U.S. military requirements, as well as in defense of allied 
nations against nefarious nation States, and encourages the 
Secretary of the Navy to expand their deployment.
    Increased Access to Ocean Data.--As part of broader efforts 
to standardize and make available oceanographic data, the 
Committee encourages the Secretary of the Navy to take the 
steps necessary to ensure the release of and public access to 
unclassified and declassified oceanographic data, including 
information about pirate fishing vessels that will help coastal 
States in Africa and other regions better police their 
exclusive economic zones, subject to existing regulatory 
restrictions.
    Uncrewed Undersea Vehicle Research for Confined-Water 
Environments.--The Committee notes that undersea caves are 
largely unexplored due to technical limitations of existing 
uncrewed undersea vehicles [UUVs]. The Committee understands 
that such exploration requires stable, precisely navigating 
platforms that host robust mapping and exploration capabilities 
while minimally disrupting the environment. The Committee is 
aware of projects undertaken by the Office of Naval Research in 
this area and encourages the Chief of Naval Research to 
continue investments in UUVs optimized for research in 
confined-water environments.

    Next Generation Air Dominance.--The fiscal year 2025 
President's budget request includes $3,306,355,000 in Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force for the Next 
Generation Air Dominance [NGAD] Family of Systems portfolio, 
which consists of $2,749,208,000 for the NGAD Platform and 
$557,147,000 for the Collaborative Combat Aircraft [CCA] 
program. The Committee has concerns that funding for CCA and 
NGAD are currently within the same budget line, limiting 
Congress' ability to discretely identify how funding is 
delineated between the two efforts within the year-of-
execution. Furthermore, the Committee notes that in order to 
ensure visibility into cost and performance, and to provide 
traceability of appropriated funding, the CCA program should be 
budgeted for in an individual, dedicated program element. 
Therefore, the Committee establishes a new budget line for CCA 
as delineated in the table of Committee Recommended Adjustments 
accompanying this section, and directs the Secretary of the Air 
Force to retain this program element structure in the fiscal 
year 2026 and future President's budget requests.
    The NGAD platform is intended to be the Department of the 
Air Force's sixth-generation fighter platform for the 2030s and 
beyond. The Committee has been a strong proponent of the NGAD 
platform and fully funded the President's Budget request in 
fiscal years 2022 through 2024 for a combined total of 
$5,116,318,000. The Committee fully supports the fiscal year 
2025 President's Budget request, and commends the Air Force 
approach for a government-owned, autonomous, open-architecture 
framework in the NGAD platform, which has optimized vendor 
optionality to the Air Force throughout the development 
process.
    The Secretary of the Air Force has publicly stated that the 
future of the NGAD platform is being reevaluated. The Committee 
understands that the Air Force has delayed the decision for the 
engineering and manufacturing development phase of the program, 
raising questions about the Air Force's commitment to fielding 
advanced aircraft capable of maintaining air dominance in a 
contested 21st century environment. Moreover, the Committee is 
concerned that current and projected fighter aircraft 
acquisition across the Future Years Defense Program is 
inadequate. As the F-35 continues to experience extensive 
delays in the delivery of combat capable aircraft, and fiscal 
year 2025 is currently the last programmed buy for the F-15EX, 
absent maturation of the NGAD platform, the Air Force has not 
presented a viable plan to sustaining the production and 
fielding of fighter aircraft. The Committee notes that in 
Senate Report 118-81, the Committee directed the Secretary of 
the Air Force to submit a report with the fiscal year 2025 
President's budget submission that describes the plan for 
mitigating the gap between divestments and future platforms, 
both in terms of timing and total fielded capabilities. A 
requirement that has not yet been fulfilled. Therefore, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to provide the 
required briefing in a timely manner.
    Next Generation Adaptive Propulsion.--The fiscal year 2025 
President's Budget request includes $562,337,000 for the Next 
Generation Adaptive Propulsion [NGAP] effort in the Research, 
Development, Test and Evaluation, Air Force account. The 
Committee fully supports this request. In order to ensure 
visibility into cost and performance, and enable oversight of 
appropriated funds, the Committee again, as in the Department 
of Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 establishes a new and 
distinct budget line for NGAP, as delineated in the table of 
Committee Recommended Adjustments accompanying this section. 
The Secretary of the Air Force is directed to retain this 
program element structure in the fiscal year 2026 and future 
President's budget requests.
    Additionally, the Committee recognizes that the NGAP 
program is imperative to the success of the Department of the 
Air Force's Next Generation Air Dominance platform. The 
Committee supports the competitive acquisition strategy and 
notes the importance of maintaining no fewer than two viable 
competitors to ensure innovation and cost realism. Therefore, 
the Committee recommends an additional $280,000,000 only to 
maintain competition for NGAP engine development, to reduce 
program risk. The Assistant Secretary of the Air Force 
(Acquisition, Technology and Logistics) is directed to provide 
to the congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days 
after enactment of this act, a spend plan for the additional 
resources.
    Advanced Engine Development.--The Committee notes that the 
Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the Department of 
Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47) directed 
the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, 
Technology, and Logistics) to provide to the congressional 
defense committees a briefing describing how the Air Force 
intends to ensure there is a sufficient level of engine design 
work in order to maintain a robust domestic aircraft engine 
industrial base. That requirement has not yet been fulfilled. 
The Committee continues to recognize the importance of 
maintaining a skilled engineering and manufacturing workforce 
within the aircraft engine industrial base. Therefore, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to provide the 
required briefing in a timely manner.
    Sentinel.--The Sentinel system replaces the aging Minuteman 
III Intercontinental Ballistic Missile [ICBM] system, which has 
been in service for over 50 years. The Committee notes that 
earlier this year, Congress was notified by the Department of 
the Air Force that the Sentinel program exceeded projected 
costs. The Committee further notes that following a 
comprehensive program review in accordance with Title 10, 
United States Code, Section 4376, the Under Secretary of 
Defense (Acquisition and Sustainment) certified that the 
Sentinel program meets the statutory criteria to continue. This 
includes certification that the continuation of the Sentinel 
program is essential to national security; that there are no 
alternatives to the program which will provide acceptable 
capability to meet the joint requirements at less cost; that 
the new estimates of the program acquisition unit cost or 
procurement unit cost have been determined by the Director of 
Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation to be reasonable; that 
the program is a higher priority than programs whose funding 
must be reduced to accommodate the growth in cost of the 
program; and that the management structure for the program is 
adequate to manage and control program acquisition unit cost or 
procurement unit cost.
    The Committee strongly supports the decision to continue 
the Sentinel program; however, the Committee notes that the 
revised schedule for the program to proceed remains unclear. 
Given the critical nature of this program, the Committee is 
concerned at the lack of urgency with respect to defining 
programmatic and schedule details, specifying distinct plans 
and efforts, and, most importantly, establishing a revised 
schedule to provide a clear way forward and ensure program 
success. Therefore, the Secretary of the Air Force is directed 
to provide to the congressional defense committees, no later 
than 30 days after the enactment of this act, a plan for 
incremental progress towards these goals, to include an interim 
schedule, as well as a plan to achieve a fully Integrated 
Master Schedule. These plans shall include benchmarks, 
milestones, as well as an identification of the defense 
industrial base requirements to achieve the revised schedule. 
Further, given the large cost changes currently projected for 
this effort, the Secretary of the Air Force is directed to 
coordinate with industry partners to conduct an Integrated 
Baseline Review, and to include a summary of the findings to 
the congressional defense committees during a subsequent 
quarterly review. The Committee intent is that this review can 
be conducted in parallel with continued development efforts, 
and notes that such a review shall not affect incremental 
progress across the program.
    The fiscal year 2025 President's budget request includes 
$3,721,024,000 in Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Air Force to continue Engineering Manufacturing Development 
[EMD] efforts of the Sentinel program. The Committee supports 
this request, and understands that the program requires full 
funding to continue EMD efforts, and burn down risk areas 
identified during the program review. The Committee recommends 
an additional $200,000,000 for Sentinel industrial base risk 
reduction and prototyping to keep the supply base healthy and 
in a position to support the increasing demands of the program. 
This funding may be used to strengthen Sentinel program key 
suppliers, improve supplier efficiency, develop radiation-
hardened components for strategic applications, certify metal-
oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors, and accelerate 
workforce development and collaboration with trade schools.
    Consistent with direction included in the Joint Explanatory 
Statement accompanying the Department of Defense Appropriations 
Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47), the Committee directs the 
Secretary of the Air Force to provide quarterly reports to the 
congressional defense committees beginning on the first day of 
the fiscal year quarter following the date of enactment of this 
act until the first day of the fiscal year quarter after all 
such funds have been obligated and expended. The report shall 
include for each obligation and expenditure of this recommended 
funding increase: performers, location, description of the work 
performed, obligation date and amount, expenditure date and 
amount, original contract amount, description of any 
shortfalls, actions to be undertaken, desired end state, usable 
items to be procured, level of effort to be performed, period 
of performance, additional funding amount provided as 
applicable, and projected associated savings as applicable.
    Additionally, the Committee notes the quarterly metrics 
provided by the Air Force, as directed in House Report 117-88, 
and heavily relies on the information contained to track cost, 
schedule, and performance, software development, progress on 
efforts to recapitalize launch facilities, launch control 
centers, and other supporting infrastructure, and assess 
technical risk. In addition to this information, the Committee 
directs the Secretary of the Air Force to also provide the 
following information on a quarterly basis: actual and planned 
government and contractor staffing, schedule summary scorecards 
to highlight the percentage of progress made through completion 
of major tasks, construction quarterly progress, a component 
development diagram that shows the status of critical 
components in relation to schedule need, overall prime workload 
curves to illuminate competing staffing demands, and critical 
supplier rankings.
    Sentinel Local Workforce.--The Committee notes the 
importance of ensuring the Sentinel program has access to the 
skilled labor force necessary to complete construction of this 
critical project without additional delay. The Committee 
encourages the Secretary of the Air Force, through the Program 
Executive Officer position for Intercontinental Ballistic 
Missiles, and industry partners, to proactively engage with 
local labor unions to identify and secure the necessary high-
skilled local workforce within the States where Sentinel 
program construction will occur. This should include the 
establishment of a roadmap that identifies workforce needs by 
size, trades, and schedule to ensure timely completion of the 
Sentinel projects. The Committee directs the Secretary of the 
Air Force to provide an update to the congressional defense 
committees, not later than April 30, 2025, on these engagement 
efforts, including any progress or resulting agreements.
    Additionally, to reduce the risk of potential workforce 
shortages and ensure timely completion of this project, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force to establish a 
pilot program for local workforce development to support the 
Sentinel program. The Secretary of the Air Force is encouraged 
to collaborate with the Sentinel program's industry partners, 
local educational institutions, and labor unions in the States 
where construction will occur to develop targeted training 
programs, apprenticeship programs, and career pathways aligned 
with the Sentinel program's workforce needs. The pilot program 
should focus on identified critical skill gaps and workforce 
needs specific to the Sentinel program, tailored training and 
certification programs, apprenticeship and on-the-job training 
opportunities, and recruiting and retaining skilled workers in 
the local communities proximate to Sentinel program sites. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of the Air Force 
to submit a report to the congressional defense committees, not 
later than April 30, 2025, on the pilot program's progress, 
critical skill gaps identified in States where construction 
will occur, and the Air Force's plan to remediate such gaps.
    Future Wireless Technology.--The Committee encourages the 
Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, Technology 
and Logistics) to conduct research activities critical to 
understanding, developing, and deploying high frequency 
wireless systems for the Department of Defense.
    Carbon-Carbon Composite Material Development.--The 
Committee supports cooperative efforts between the Air Force 
Research Laboratory and academia to work on the next generation 
of carbon-carbon composite materials.
    Secure Bitstream Production.--The Committee encourages the 
Assistant Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, Technology 
and Logistics) to continue research in the creation of 
bitstream encryption standards for the production and testing 
of field programmable gate arrays within the United States.
    Artificial Intelligence.--The Committee notes that some 
available Artificial Intelligence [AI] models lack the required 
maturity, security, and dependability, driving the need for 
improved AI models. The Committee encourages the Assistant 
Secretary of the Air Force (Acquisition, Technology and 
Logistics) to develop the training, testing, and evaluation 
methods that are needed to utilize AI in vital national 
security roles.
    Glass Packaging Solutions for Miniaturization.--The 
Committee recognizes that future electronics demands will 
require advances in semiconductor manufacturing, necessitating 
the development and use of novel materials and processes. The 
Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force 
(Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics) to explore the use of 
novel materials such as glass substrate in the manufacturing of 
microelectronics capable of operating at high frequencies, 
meeting stringent size, weight, and power constraints, and 
withstanding high temperatures.
    Use of Tanker Fleet as Communications Nodes.--The Committee 
notes the need for a robust communications network capable of 
leveraging all available aircraft. Further, the Committee 
encourages the integration of enhanced communications 
capabilities onto Air Force tankers. Therefore, the Committee 
directs the Secretary of the Air Force to provide a report to 
the congressional defense committees, not later than 90 days 
after the enactment of this act, outlining ongoing and planned 
efforts to integrate enhanced communications nodes on the 
refueling tanker fleet. This report shall include an assessment 
of future research required for current and future refueling 
tankers' use of enhanced connectivity capabilities to 
effectively integrate with manned fighters and Collaborative 
Combat Aircraft.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    National Space Intelligence Center.--The Department of 
Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47) includes a 
provision prohibiting the establishment of field operating 
agencies [FOA]. The Committee believes that such a provision 
unnecessarily hinders the Department from establishing the most 
efficient organizational structure, which has been particularly 
limiting as the Space Force was established.
    The Committee notes that under the authority of an 
exception to that provision for certain intelligence agencies, 
in June 2024, the Space Force notified the congressional 
defense and intelligence committees of its intent to realign 
the National Space Intelligence Center [NSIC] from a Space 
Delta to a Field Operating Agency to better ``meet their 
responsibilities to both national and United States Space Force 
intelligence efforts.'' The Committee understands that the 
Enterprise Talent Management Office and the Space Warfare 
Analysis Center are unable to exercise that same waiver to 
transition to FOAs. Therefore, the Committee does not recommend 
including the provision in the Department of Defense 
Appropriations Act, 2025. The Deputy Chief of Space Operations, 
Strategy, Plans, Programs, and Requirements is directed to 
provide the congressional defense committees, no later than 
September 30, 2024, a briefing detailing the operational impact 
of this limitation on national security.
    Commercial Satellite Testbed.--The Committee recognizes the 
Department of Defense's reliance on commercial satellite 
services. The wars in Ukraine and Israel have demonstrated that 
when a commercial asset is known to support a defense mission, 
it also becomes a target. Our adversaries understand the 
criticality of space assets as part of the National and 
tactical command-and-control system and will target the space 
vehicles and ground networks that support those constellations. 
While there are ongoing efforts to secure government systems, 
the Committee has not found similar efforts focused on 
defending commercial satellite systems that support national 
security missions. To assure our National security, the United 
States must provide a holistic solution to detect, deter, and 
defend these mission essential systems, particularly from 
cyber-attacks. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
Director, Space Systems Command to develop a commercial 
satellite testbed that supports our National security by 
developing advanced cyber assurance protocols for commercial 
systems and that can provide critical insights into defending 
commercial assets and providing resilience for continued 
operation.
    Automated Commercial Non-Earth Imaging.--The Committee sees 
continued value in leveraging commercial capabilities that 
enhance our domestic competitive advantage and simultaneously 
better support the needs of our partners and allies. One of 
these emerging capabilities is space-based commercial non-Earth 
imaging [NEI]. As with other commercial space technologies, 
space-based commercial NEI is a transformative technology 
poised to greatly enhance space domain awareness for the 
Department of Defense and its allies. As this capability 
continues to advance, the Committee encourages the Commander, 
Space Systems Command to assess the viability of augmenting 
organic space domain awareness capabilities with commercial 
services.
    Competitive Procurement of Space Systems.--The Committee 
supports open competition and competitive design, development, 
and production of systems to ensure that the Department is 
getting the right system at the right price. The Committee 
notes that several recent acquisitions by the National 
Reconnaissance Office within the Geospatial Intelligence 
portfolio have or plan to use utilize non-competitive sole-
source procurements on contracts that are non-severable, and 
hamper the oversight abilities over appropriated funds by the 
congressional defense committees. The Committee has concerns 
that these sole-source decisions are frequently following the 
initiation of prototyping efforts that are not sufficiently 
representative of the final systems awarded. In contrast, the 
Committee notes that the Space Development Agency [SDA] 
utilizes an approach where iterative tranches are awarded to 
multiple vendors in an effort to spur competition and maintain 
a robust industrial base. While SDA is still early in its 
acquisition strategy, and long-term success is to-be 
determined, these two approaches differ greatly and should be 
understood in further detail. Therefore, the Committee includes 
additional reporting requirements in the classified annex 
accompanying this act on acquisition strategies and the 
adherence of the Department's Financial Management Regulations 
to address these issues.
    Pilot Program for Multilevel Security.--The Committee 
recognizes the growing number of organic and commercial 
terrestrial and on-orbit space sensing capabilities across a 
multitude of mission areas. The integration of increasing 
numbers of commercial data-sets, disparate classifications of 
organic data, and the growing complexity of cybersecurity 
threats demands innovative security measures, to include data 
tagging at all classification levels. The Committee believes a 
strategy is required to increase data integration from multiple 
sources at differing classification levels, thus allowing 
seamless integration into critical command and control systems. 
Therefore, the Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of 
the Air Force, Space Acquisition and Integration, in 
coordination with the Chief of Space Operations, to implement a 
pilot program that employs multilevel security solutions for 
space operations to improve data availability for the 
warfighter while increasing assured access to information 
across classification levels.
    Commercial Services.--The Committee commends and supports 
the United States Space Force's commitment to a new acquisition 
model that follows an ``exploit, buy, build'' approach. In many 
instances, the Space Force is looking for rapid capability that 
already exists either in commercial space or adjacent 
industries and can be adapted into the current warfighting 
architecture. While the stated goals are admirable, the 
Committee is concerned that the relevant level of investment 
outside of traditional acquisition programs is minimal at best. 
Therefore, the Committee recommends an additional $22,000,000 
to support the acquisition of commercial services to augment 
the position, navigation and timing mission, space-based 
environmental monitoring mission, and the Commercial 
Augmentation Space Reserve. Further, the Committee encourages 
the Secretary of the Air Force to increase investment in 
commercial augmentation.
    Commercial Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Tracking 
Services.--The Committee notes the growing marketplace for 
commercial service offerings in the world of electro-optical/
infrared, synthetic aperture radar, and hyperspectral imaging 
capabilities. In addition, commercial constellations exist that 
provide radio frequency and light detection and radar sensing. 
The Committee notes that, with the increasing focus on peer 
competition in contested environments, the Department of 
Defense intends to rely on new space capabilities that can 
fulfill traditional title 10 intelligence, surveillance, 
reconnaissance, and target tracking missions as a replacement 
for existing airborne assets. Further, the Committee notes that 
proliferation of space capabilities continues to be the Air 
Force's primary rationale for divestiture of the Joint 
Surveillance and Target Attack Radar System, RQ-4, and other 
sensing aircraft performing title 10 military service missions 
with service resourcing while operating under title 10 
prioritized tasking.
    The Committee acknowledges that Department of Defense 
Directive 5105.60, published in July 2009, which designates the 
National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency as the Department's 
principal advisor for geospatial intelligence [GEOINT]. 
However, the Committee believes that mission sets should drive 
prioritization and planning, and that Department of Defense 
Directive 5105.60 does not preclude other agencies from 
acquiring those capabilities, nor does it supersede the 
authority provided to the Secretary of the Air Force to man, 
train, and equip Air Force and Space Force personnel in 
accordance with title 10, United States Code, Section 9013(b). 
Further, the Committee notes that for tactical mission sets, 
receiving data in a relevant timeline is essential to the 
success of a mission. The Committee is concerned that the 
current tasking prioritization, while possibly suitable for our 
most important and challenging national intelligence 
requirements, may not be adequately responsive to Combatant 
Commander needs at the operational level. Therefore, the 
Committee recommends an additional $40,000,000 for Space 
Systems Command's Commercial Space Office to continue its pilot 
of a Combatant Command-direct tasking initiative for these 
commercial space services.
    Further, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 
submit a report to the congressional defense committees and 
congressional intelligence committees, not later than 90 days 
following enactment of this act, through an independent 
assessment by a federally-funded research and development 
center of the timeliness and efficacy of the current 
prioritization process for GEOINT requirements within the 
Department. The report shall include, but not be limited to: 
assessments of: the current prioritization process to include 
submission process, validation process, and execution process, 
frequency of requirements updates; timeliness of the current 
process to respond to emerging needs; and an independent 
assessment of GEOINT requirements both filled and unfilled at 
each of the geographic combatant commands with separate and 
independent assessments for J2 intelligence requirements and J3 
operational requirements; and recommendations for improvement, 
if any. The report may be submitted in a classified format, but 
shall be accompanied by an unclassified summary of the 
findings.
    Remote Sensing Classification.--The Committee notes that 
the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community are 
partnering on new space sensing capabilities for radar, 
electro-optical, and moving target indication capabilities. 
This new architecture has been dubbed the High Capacity Find, 
Fix, Track, Target, Engage, and Assess Constellation [HCF]. 
Further, the Committee understands that the Office of the 
Director of National Intelligence [ODNI] and the Office of the 
Undersecretary of Defense (Intelligence and Security) [USD 
(I&S)] recently led a process to determine the classification 
levels of data from the HCF, most notably proposing to mark 
certain data unclassified, despite its origin from 
traditionally classified government intelligence collection 
systems.
    The Committee is concerned that unless DOD and the IC also 
plan to rely upon the robust U.S. commercial remote sensing 
industry that already exists and which inherently provides 
unclassified, shareable collection, the current approach to the 
HCF architecture may have unintended negative consequences to 
the United States' commercial sensing industrial base.
    The Committee notes that United States' commercial remote 
sensing policy as mandated in National Security Presidential 
Directive 27 has a Stated goal to ``advance and protect our 
National security and foreign policy interests by maintaining 
the Nation's leadership in remote sensing space activities, and 
by sustaining and enhancing the U.S. remote sensing industry.'' 
Further, the policy States that the United States Government 
will ``rely to the maximum practical extent on U.S. commercial 
remote sensing space capabilities for filling imagery and 
geospatial needs for military, intelligence, foreign policy, 
homeland security, and civil users.'' Further, the Committee 
notes that the Department of Defense's Commercial Space 
Integration Strategy, released in 2024, adopts three categories 
for organizing the integration of commercial space solutions, 
one of which is a hybrid government/commercial solution. In 
mission sets aligned to this category, including the 
Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance mission area, 
the strategy States that the ``commercial sector is well suited 
to perform functions within these mission areas''. To continue 
to enhance the strength of the commercial remote sensing 
industrial base and our Nation's ability to be the premier 
global provider of these services, it is imperative that 
government programs integrate these capabilities.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Comptroller General to 
conduct an analysis of the government's space-based GEOINT 
architecture including the HCF constellation and commercial 
augmentation. Not later than 90 days following enactment of 
this act, the Comptroller general shall submit an interim 
report to the congressional defense committees and the 
congressional intelligence committees that characterizes the 
following: the current and planned systems within the HCF; a 
summary of the acquisition and contracting strategies planned 
for each; the requirements driving the development of each 
system citing the relevant documentation; a capabilities 
description of each system; a life-cycle cost assessment of 
each system currently operational or in development; a 
comparison of current and future HCF requirements against those 
of current operational and developmental commercial space 
solutions; and an assessment of the annual commercial services 
providing HCF-like capability; Not later than 180 days 
following the enactment of this act, the Comptroller General 
shall submit its final report to the congressional defense 
committees and the congressional intelligence committees. The 
report may be submitted in a classified format, but shall be 
accompanied by an unclassified summary of the findings.
    Cislunar.--The Committee notes that the National Cislunar 
Science and Technology Strategy released in November 2022 
outlines four National objectives for cislunar space. The 
Department of Defense is co-lead on one of the four objectives 
that aims to extend space situational awareness capabilities 
into cislunar space. While the Committee recognizes that there 
have been some investments in this area, mainly space domain 
awareness and novel propulsion technologies, these efforts have 
largely been funded through congressional increases. The 
Committee notes that in the fiscal year 2023 Cislunar Space 
Acquisition Report submitted by the Department of the Air 
Force, the Fiscal Year 2024 Future Years Defense Program budget 
was listed at $132,100,000 for seven distinct projects, all of 
which were for early developmental or pathfinder projects, with 
no plans for sustained operational capability, or technological 
breakthroughs to enhance the Department's ability to operate on 
the lunar surface, or cislunar and deep space. Therefore, the 
Committee once again encourages the Secretary of the Air Force 
to increase investment in cislunar activities.
    Further, the Committee recognizes that traditional solar 
array technologies for space vehicle power generation provide 
limited power sourcing, degrade over time, and can increase 
radar signature. The Committee notes that nuclear electric 
propulsion technology using a near-term fission system has the 
potential to increase the lifespan, range, and communications 
capabilities of space vehicles enabling the Space Force to 
develop new space architectures, as well as modified tactics, 
techniques, and procedures for operation within existing 
architectures. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
Assistant Secretary for Space Acquisition and Integration to 
increase its investment in the maturation of nuclear propulsion 
technologies. The Committee recommends an additional 
$515,000,000 in base and emergency resources to accelerate 
development of space nuclear propulsion technologies in an 
effort to provide our Nation with a reliable energy source for 
spacecraft that is essential for long-term, sustained 
operations in all orbits, including cislunar space and beyond.
    Space Training and Readiness Command.--The Committee 
commends the decision by the Secretary of the Air Force to 
approve the final basing decision for Space Training and 
Readiness Command [STARCOM]. As the U.S. Space Force begins to 
move facilities and other capabilities to STARCOM's permanent 
headquarters, the Secretary of the Air Force is encouraged to 
take advantage of various Federal, State, and local resources, 
including partnerships with academia and public-private 
partners to expedite and support various requirements.

    Office of the Undersecretary of Defense (Research and 
Engineering) prototyping efforts.--The Committee is concerned 
that the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Research 
and Engineering [OUSD R&E] is shifting its emphasis to 
undertaking prototyping activities beyond the duties and 
authorities prescribed in Section 133a(b) of title 10, United 
States Code, including an increasing level of system-level and 
system-of-systems prototyping and contracting for end-items. 
The Committee believes this office's resources would be more 
appropriately allocated in the oversight of defense-wide 
science and technology [S&T] and research and development [R&D] 
activities, the conduct of holistic assessments on contemplated 
and existing Service technologies, understanding how these 
technologies will in turn shape the joint force, and issuance 
of department-wide guidance on S&T and R&D priorities.
    It is the Committee's view that each of the Services retain 
the authority to develop specific system-level prototypes and 
end-items for their respective users, while a key OUSD R&E role 
is to look across the full breadth of the Department's planned 
technology maturation activities to identify gaps and 
opportunities. It is the Committee's position that the OUSD R&E 
should prioritize the conduct of joint S&T and R&D analysis, 
including assisting in identifying and resolving multi-Service 
technological challenges.
    Accordingly, the Committee recommends several targeted 
realignments and reductions to initiatives proposed by the OUSD 
R&E in fiscal year 2025. Notwithstanding these reductions, the 
Committee acknowledges that the changing nature of warfare 
necessitates significant focus on the S&T and R&D of joint 
capabilities. However, it is the Committee's position that the 
development and fielding of these capabilities should be rooted 
in acquisition best practices under the leadership of one of 
the Department's Acquisition Executives in accordance with the 
authorities provided to the Department from the Congress.
    The Defense Advanced Research Project Agency's Financial 
Management Practices and Budget Line Consolidation.--Since its 
establishment in 1958, the Defense Advanced Research Project 
Agency [DARPA] has invented and matured countless technologies 
that have enabled great leaps forward for our National defense. 
The Committee remains supportive of the critical research DARPA 
conducts.
    It has come to the Committee's attention that DARPA has 
routinely under-budgeted for indirect costs and anticipated 
program initiation costs, despite these costs being realized 
within the year of execution. Instead, DARPA has funded these 
costs by cutting funding from dozens of underperforming 
programs in any given year, while continuing to represent to 
the congressional defense committees that appropriated and 
requested funds were supporting the originally requested 
efforts. For example, in fiscal year 2024, DARPA anticipates 
approximately one-third of the resources appropriated for 
applied research in microelectronics will instead be applied to 
agency-wide indirect costs that were not budgeted. Overall, 
more than 10 percent of total agency resources in fiscal year 
2024 will be spent on indirect costs that were not requested, 
rather than the core science and technology research program.
    DARPA officials have communicated to the Committee that its 
current approach to budgeting allows the agency to retain more 
flexibility within their year-of-execution profile and 
terminate research projects not delivering results, thus 
avoiding reprogramming actions and optimizing available 
resources. In the interest of enabling DARPA to continue its 
innovative work and at the agency's request, the Committee's 
recommendation includes a series of functional transfers to 
consolidate science and technology research program efforts. 
This results in a 60 percent reduction in the number of DARPA 
budget line program elements, simplifying accounting and 
operations.
    However, the Committee remains concerned that DARPA's true 
operating costs are not being appropriately budgeted. 
Therefore, not later than September 30, 2024, the Director of 
the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency shall brief the 
congressional defense committees on projected indirect costs 
for fiscal year 2025, and present a plan for realigning such 
costs to DARPA's management support program element.
    Further, the Committee directs the Comptroller General of 
the United States to conduct quarterly audits of DARPA's 
financial management practices and accounting data, to include 
an assessment of the extent to which the science and technology 
research program and management support costs are appropriately 
captured in internal financial accounting systems and 
documents, as well as in the materials presented to the 
congressional defense committees. Such audits shall also 
include an evaluation of adherence to best practices and 
recommendations for improvement. The Comptroller General of the 
United States shall provide the results of the first such 
quarterly audit not later than December 1, 2024.
    Joint All Domain Command and Control.--The Department of 
Defense Appropriations Act, 2024 (Public Law 118-47), 
consolidated defense-wide Joint All-Domain Command and Control 
[JADC2] resources into a single program element and directed 
the Undersecretary of Defense (Acquisition and Sustainment) to 
provide a spend plan as well as a resourcing and programming 
strategy for investment in JADC2 fires and common enterprise-
level capabilities. While the Department of Defense has matured 
its ability to track defense-wide resources allocated in 
support of JADC2 efforts, it has yet to present an acquisition 
and programming strategy that documents its plans to deliver 
specific capabilities in response to codified user 
requirements. Moreover, it is not clear that the Department's 
work on long-range fire kill webs is sufficiently integrated 
into the broader JADC2 enterprise, potentially limiting the 
efficacy of any enterprise-wide solution. Specifically, the 
Committee commends the work of the Joint Long Range Fires 
Office [JLO] and believes any JADC2 architecture must be fully 
integrated with and incorporate the evolving findings of the 
JLO.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Deputy Secretary of 
Defense to, not later than 60 days after the enactment of this 
act, deliver a comprehensive JADC2 and JLO acquisition and 
programming strategy, accompanied by supporting spend plans, to 
the congressional defense committees.
    Joint Fires Network.--The Committee notes that the fiscal 
year 2025 President's budget request includes funding for a 
Joint Fires Network [JFN], which the Commander, U.S. Indo-
Pacific Command has identified as a high-priority requirement. 
Before the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate in March 
2024, the previous Commander testified that JFN experimentation 
was conducted in three joint exercise and experimentation 
venues in 2023 scaling up from eight nodes in NORTHERN EDGE 23-
1 to 20 nodes in NORTHERN EDGE 23-2, and most recently, a JFN 
live fire demonstration occurred during VALIANT SHIELD 2024 and 
intended to deliver an initial JFN combat credible capability 
to the Joint Force.
    Given the critical warfighting importance of JFN and 
related efforts, the Committee believes that, as JFN and other 
Joint All-Domain Command and Control [JADC2] and Joint Long 
Range Fires [JLRF] initiatives mature to deliver combat 
credible capabilities to the Joint Force, the operational 
effectiveness and operational suitability under realistic 
operational conditions of such initiatives must be 
independently assessed.
    Accordingly, beginning on November 1, 2024, the Committee 
directs the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation to submit 
semi-annual reports directly to the congressional defense 
committees that evaluate the operational effectiveness and 
operational suitability of JFN and other JADC2 and JLRF 
initiatives as determined by the Director. In the case of the 
first report, the Director shall submit a baseline assessment 
of such initiatives through and including the VALIANT SHIELD 
2024 exercise. Each subsequent report shall evaluate the 
activities of such initiatives subsequent to the activities 
covered in the previous report. The Committee directs the 
Secretary of Defense and each of the Service Secretaries to 
make available in a timely manner to the Director and his staff 
such information as the Director deems necessary to complete 
such reports. These reports shall continue until the JFN, 
JADC2, and JLRF are deemed by the Under Secretary of Defense 
(Acquisition and Sustainment) to have reached Full Operational 
Capability.
    International Innovation Initiatives.--The President's 
fiscal year 2025 budget request includes $125,680,000 in the 
Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, Defense-Wide 
account for International Innovation Initiatives. This is 
$113,180,000 more than the fiscal year 2024 enacted budget. The 
preponderance of resources aligned against this effort support 
the Australia, United Kingdom, and United States' security 
partnership's Pillar II effort, which is focused on promoting 
joint emerging technology maturation.
    The Committee strongly supports practical, results-based 
collaboration between the United States and two of its closest 
allies, but assesses that the President's budget request could 
have aligned resources more efficiently to enable swifter 
execution. The United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia 
have a history of collaborative defense programs and innovation 
spanning decades, producing some of the most important 
advancements in defense technology since World War II. This 
collaboration has largely existed at the agency and program 
level. In response to Committee inquiries, the Office of the 
Secretary of Defense was unable to identify which specific 
entities within the Department of Defense would execute the 
requested funds. Therefore, in instances where specific program 
offices were identified and the requested funding appeared 
executable to the Committee, funds were transferred to that 
Program Element for execution by the appropriate military 
service. If these criteria were not met, the requested funding 
was redirected to other Department of Defense priorities.
    The Committee is concerned that centralizing this one 
portion of international innovation within a single entity in 
the Office of the Secretary of Defense could result in 
duplication and sub-optimization of the related important 
technology maturation and prototyping work being conducted 
within the Services and defense agencies, whom are ultimately 
responsible for maturing and fielding developed technologies. 
The Committee looks forward to future engagements with the 
Undersecretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) and the 
Undersecretary of Defense (Policy) to identify mechanisms to 
enhance allied engagement with entities responsible for 
prototype and program development within the Department of 
Defense.
    Advancing Analytics [ADVANA].--The Committee acknowledges 
the value of the Department of Defense's Advancing Analytics 
[ADVANA] platform and makes a series of recommendations to 
improve the execution of resources and strengthen program 
management. The fiscal year 2025 President's budget request 
includes resources for the Chief Digital and Artificial 
Intelligence Office's [CDAO] Advancing Analytics program 
[ADVANA] within the Research, Development, Test and Evaluation, 
Defense-Wide, as well as Operation and Maintenance, Defense-
Wide accounts. The Committee's recommendation realigns 
$412,058,000 for ADVANA to budget activity 08 and directs that 
the CDAO shall only use the resources provided in that budget 
line to support ADVANA's work. In addition to the reporting 
requirements included in ``Software and Digital Technology 
Pilot Programs,'' included elsewhere in this report, the CDAO 
is directed to provide quarterly reports to the congressional 
defense committees on ADVANA's resourcing, programmatic 
objectives, and acquisition strategy.
    Defense Innovation Unit OnRamp Hubs.--The Defense 
Innovation Unit [DIU] OnRamp Hubs are important venues for the 
Department of Defense to engage with non-traditional industry 
performers located across the Nation. The Committee strongly 
supports the Department's efforts to increase external 
engagement with a regionally diverse set of industry partners 
and sees the DIU OnRamp Hubs as key enablers of this objective. 
However, the Committee is disappointed that the fiscal year 
2025 President's budget request does not request funds to 
sustain these efforts. Therefore, the Committee directs the 
Director of the Defense Innovation Unit, in coordination with 
the Undersecretary of Defense (Comptroller), to, not later than 
60 days following the enactment of this act, review funding for 
Defense Innovation Unit OnRamp Hubs across the Future Years 
Defense Program and brief the congressional defense committees 
on a plan to allocate resources towards this capability.
    Secure Shipping Containers.--The Committee notes that 
Presidential Determination Number 2017-09 underscores the 
critical shortfalls in secure hybrid composite shipping 
container industrial capacity and notes that the United States 
defense industrial base cannot reasonably be expected to 
provide this capability in a timely manner without further 
action. The Committee is concerned that insufficient progress 
has been made in established policy and regulations to 
implement this determination since its publication in June 
2017. At a minimum, the Committee believes that Department of 
Defense should update the requirements covering the secure 
maritime shipment of Department of Defense or Department of 
Defense contractor equipment that is capable of transmitting, 
receiving, processing, or storing Top Secret or Special Access 
Program controlled information. The updated requirements should 
take into account the new and improved secure shipping 
capabilities established under Presidential Determination 
Number 2017-09 and specify, for each of the various types of 
covered equipment, threshold and objective values including 
location tracking, tampering alerts, intrusion detection, and 
false alarm probability. Accordingly, the Committee directs the 
Secretary of Defense, in consultation with the Secretary of 
Homeland Security, to brief the congressional defense 
committees, not later than 90 days after enactment of this act 
on existing policy and requirements for shipping such equipment 
and potential new or additional policy and requirements options 
that would implement the intent of the Presidential 
Determination, improving the security of such equipment before, 
during, and after maritime shipment.
    Domestic rare earth permanent magnet recycling capacity.--
The Committee is concerned about the security of rare earth 
permanent magnet supply chains, given the reliance on foreign 
sources for rare earth elements. The United States has not 
invested in a diverse supply of rare earths despite the 
dominance of adversaries and competitors in the global 
marketplace. The Committee encourages the Department to explore 
a rare earth permanent magnet recycling at a domestic facility 
capable of processing all types of rare earth permanent 
magnets.
    5G Interference Risk Mitigation.--The Committee understands 
that the deployment of 5G networks across the country and 
abroad are vulnerable to unintentional and intentional 
interference. As 5G continues to expand across the globe, the 
potential for interference in US military operations by our 
adversaries becomes even more at risk. The committee 
understands an advanced radio-frequency [RF] architecture known 
as the Wideband Adaptive Signal Processer [WASP], which enables 
broadband Simultaneous Transmit And Receive [STAR] capability, 
has been demonstrated in government-controlled test 
environments for multiple Department of Defense applications. 
Therefore, the committee directs the Director, Test Resource 
Management Center to submit to the congressional defense 
committees a report, not later than 60 days after the enactment 
of this act, detailing the efforts to mitigate 5G interference 
utilizing WASP-based STAR technology.
    Low-profile Persistent Power for Satellites.--The Committee 
supports Department of Defense programs that improve 
operational effectiveness via targeted operational energy 
technology investments. The Department's multi-domain mission 
success requires the development of high-density, persistent 
power sources. The Committee encourages the development of 
radioisotope power systems that are capable of providing 
lightweight, always-on, resilient power to increase the 
capabilities of Department spacecraft. These capabilities will 
enable greater competition with China and Russia in space.
    Advanced node Semiconductor Technologies.--The Committee is 
aware that new emerging technologies may allow for the 
development of advanced-node semiconductors utilizing existing 
trailing-edge semiconductor foundries through a new category of 
logic and memory that is three to four times denser than 
current state-of-the-art within two-to-three years. As such, 
the Committee encourages further development and exploration of 
accelerating such technologies.
    Integrated Photonics and Optics Innovation Hub.--The 
Committee recognizes the critical need for a strong domestic 
microelectronics manufacturing capability for both national 
security and economic reasons. Therefore, the Committee 
encourages the Microelectronics Commons program to explore the 
advancement of photonics-based microelectronic technologies for 
the Department.
    Quantum Science and Information Center.--The Committee 
recognizes the importance of the development of a Quantum 
Science and Information Center integrating regional 
universities and defense divisions and encourages the 
Department of Defense to prioritize funding for such an 
initiative.
    Advancing Cognitive AI Technologies.--The Committee 
encourages the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence 
Officer [CDAO] to further explore the application of cognitive 
AI technologies. The Committee is aware of initial advances 
within critical areas including Air Operations Centers and 
document classification operations and supports the CDAO 
exploring pathways for future sustainment of these 
capabilities.
    Industrial Base Expansion for Next-Generation 
Aerostructures.--In line with the National Defense Industrial 
Strategy, the Committee encourages the Department of Defense to 
expand the aerostructures supply base. As the Department is 
preparing for a generational ramp-up in demand for new capacity 
across the Army, Navy, and Air Force, additional funding will 
be required to support aerostructure supplier industrial base 
health, capacity, and manufacturing equipment, as well as 
enabling the expanded use of automation, digitization, and 
advanced assembly techniques.
    Regional Partnerships for Defense Supply Chain 
Enhancement.--The Committee understands the need to establish 
public-private partnerships to address regional defense supply 
chain deficiencies. The Committee recommends that these 
partnerships strive to enhance and sustain supply chain 
resiliency by advancing the use of state-of-the-art 
manufacturing technologies and a digitally connected regional 
supply chain ecosystem that maximizes the participation of 
small- and medium-sized manufacturer suppliers. The Committee 
encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Industrial Base 
Policy) to continue prioritizing the development of public-
private partnerships that emphasize the creation and 
maintenance of a skilled workforce.
    Soy-based Firefighting Foam.--The Committee notes the 
opportunity soy-based firefighting foam presents to reduce 
dependence on foams containing harmful substances and to 
increase the use of safer and sustainably-sourced firefighting 
foams. The Committee encourages the Department to investigate 
ways to test soy-based firefighting foams for potential 
military applications.
    Underexplored Systems for Utility-Scale Quantum 
Computing.--The Committee recognizes the importance of the 
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's [DARPA] 
Underexplored Systems for Utility-Scale Quantum Computing 
[US2QC] program and is encouraged by the significant progress 
made in demonstrating the technical feasibility of fault-
tolerant utility-scale operations. Given the significant 
capital investments required for fault-tolerant, utility-scale 
systems, the Committee encourages the Secretary of Defense to 
begin planning for project transition, supporting 
infrastructure and follow-on US2QC programs and directs the 
Secretary to provide a briefing to the congressional defense 
committees on this effort not later than 60 days after 
enactment of this act.
    Department of Defense Vehicle Fleet.--Not later than 180 
days after the enactment of this act, the Secretary of Defense 
shall provide a report to the congressional defense committees 
that identifies the number of Department ground vehicles that 
run on electricity, low carbon fuels, gasoline, and diesel 
fuel. The report shall further identify the missions supported 
and vehicle shortfalls, as applicable, for each category.
    Use of 6PPD in Tires.--The Committee directs the Secretary 
of Defense to submit a report, not later than 180 days after 
the date of the enactment of this act, on the use of the 
chemical N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine 
[6PPD] in the design and production of tires procured by the 
Department of Defense. The report shall include a listing of 
Department of Defense initiatives, if any, researching 
potential alternatives to 6PPD in tire production.

    Certification of Funding for Test Infrastructure and Test 
Event Resources.--The Department of Defense's component and 
Service acquisition executives are directed to (1) certify to 
the Director, Operational Test and Evaluation [DOT&E], that the 
Department of Defense's and Services' test infrastructure, 
assets, and personnel are fully funded in the budget year and 
the Future Years Defense Program to support agreed-upon Test 
and Evaluation Master Plans, Test and Evaluation Strategies or 
equivalent documents for programs on the DOT&E Oversight List; 
and (2) provide this certification in the format, defined by 
the Director, not later than 60 days prior to the submission of 
the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request. The Director, 
Operational Test and Evaluation, is directed to provide an 
assessment to the congressional defense committees with 
submission of the fiscal year 2026 President's budget request 
on whether or not the test infrastructure, assets, and 
personnel funding in the budget year and the Future Years 
Defense Program can adequately support agreed-upon test and 
evaluation programs and identify where applicable-shortfalls by 
service and program.
    Sufficiency of Test Resources.--The Committee recognizes 
the importance of test and evaluation [T&E] plans to ensure 
Department of Defense systems perform satisfactorily in 
operationally relevant conditions. Therefore, the Committee 
directs each of the Department's component and Service 
acquisition executives to ensure T&E documents such as master 
plans, strategies, and plans detail the resources required to 
support adequate testing and evaluation of operational 
effectiveness, suitability, survivability, and lethality (as 
applicable) of Department systems and services acquired via the 
Defense Acquisition System or via other non-standard 
acquisition systems. The T&E resources detailed shall include 
physical and virtual test range capabilities, digital tools, 
threats, targets, and the projected workforce requirements. The 
respective acquisition executive, in coordination with Director 
of Operational Test and Evaluation, shall report to the 
congressional defense committees, in writing, within 30 days of 
a deviation from an approved test and evaluation document that 
occurred due to insufficient T&E resources. Each such report 
shall include the test event or events that cannot be executed 
due to such insufficient resources, a description of the 
insufficient resources, and the revised cost and schedule to 
complete such event or events. The Committee further directs an 
assessment of the effect of identified insufficient T&E 
resources be included, when applicable, in reports issued by 
the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Military Health System.--The Committee notes the Department 
of Defense's efforts to rebuild and stabilize the Military 
Health System to deliver high-quality care to its 2.8 million 
direct care beneficiaries. The Committee supports this 
stabilization effort, which will improve access to care for 
servicemembers and other beneficiaries, increase the clinical 
military readiness of the medical force, and support the 
medical readiness of the overall force. The Committee further 
recognizes that increased medical staffing in the military 
treatment facilities is critical to this stabilization effort. 
Therefore, the Committee recommends a robust funding level in 
fiscal year 2025 for In-House Care.
    Defense Health Program Reprogramming Procedures.--To limit 
the amount of transfers between the In-House Care and the 
Private Sector Care budget subactivities, and to continue to 
improve oversight within the Defense Health Program operation 
and maintenance account, the Committee includes a provision 
which caps the funds available for Private Sector Care under 
the TRICARE program subject to prior approval reprogramming 
procedures. The provision and accompanying report language 
shall not be interpreted by the Department of Defense as 
limiting the amount of funds that may be transferred to the 
Direct Care System from other budget activities within the 
Defense Health Program. In addition, funding for the In-House 
Care and Private Sector Care budget subactivities are 
designated as congressional special interest items for the 
purpose of the Base for Reprogramming (DD Form 1414). Any 
transfer of funds in excess of $15,000,000 into or out of these 
sub-activities requires the Secretary of Defense to follow 
prior approval reprogramming procedures.
    The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide 
written notification to the congressional defense committees of 
cumulative transfers in excess of $15,000,000 out of the 
Private Sector Care budget subactivity not later than 15 days 
after such a transfer. The Committee further directs the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide 
quarterly briefings to the congressional defense committees on 
budget execution data for all of the Defense Health Program 
budget activities not later than 30 days after the end of each 
fiscal quarter, and to adequately reflect changes to the budget 
activities requested by the Services in future budget 
submissions.
    Carryover.--For fiscal year 2025, the Committee recommends 
1 percent carryover authority for the operation and maintenance 
account of the Defense Health Program, consistent with prior 
years. The Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense 
(Health Affairs) to submit a detailed spend plan for any fiscal 
year 2024 designated carryover funds to the congressional 
defense committees not less than 30 days prior to executing the 
carryover funds.
    Electronic Health Record.--The Committee notes that 
Military Health System [MHS] GENESIS is now fully deployed 
supporting 9.6 million beneficiaries, and that the Defense 
Health Agency has transitioned to a metrics-based enhancement 
phase for Department of Defense practitioners and these 
beneficiaries. The Committee directs the Program Executive 
Officer, Defense Healthcare Management Systems [PEO DHMS], to 
continue to provide monthly reports not later than 15 days 
after the end of each month to the congressional defense 
committees on the status of all open incident reports, as well 
as any high priority incident reports that remain open. The 
Committee also directs the PEO DHMS, in conjunction with the 
Director of the Federal Electronic Health Record Modernization 
[FEHRM] and the Director of the Defense Health Agency, to 
provide quarterly reports not later than 30 days after the end 
of each fiscal quarter to the congressional defense committees 
and the Government Accountability Office on the cost and 
schedule of the program, system performance, patient safety 
incidents and mitigations, metrics to include clinician and 
patient satisfaction, milestones, knowledge points, and 
acquisition timelines, as well as quarterly obligation reports. 
The Committee further directs the PEO DHMS to continue briefing 
the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and the Senate on a quarterly basis, 
immediately following the report submission.
    In addition, the Committee directs the Comptroller General 
to continue quarterly performance reviews of the deployment of 
MHS GENESIS with a focus on whether the program is meeting 
expected cost, schedule, scope, quality and safety standards, 
performance, clinician and patient satisfaction and risk 
mitigation expectations. The Committee expects PEO DHMS to 
facilitate these quarterly performance reviews by providing the 
Comptroller General with regular and in-depth access to the 
program.
    The Committee directs the Director of the FEHRM to continue 
to provide quarterly reports to the House of Representatives 
and Senate Subcommittees on Appropriations for Defense and 
Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies 
on the progress of interoperability between the two Departments 
as well as with other Federal and non-Federal health providers, 
networks, and systems.
    Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program.--The Committee 
recommends $370,000,000 for the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research 
Program. The Committee directs the Secretary of Defense, in 
conjunction with the Service Surgeons General, to select 
medical research projects of clear scientific merit and direct 
relevance to military health. Research areas considered under 
this funding are restricted to: Angelman syndrome; autism; burn 
pit exposure; cardiac health; celiac disease; congenital 
cytomegalovirus; congenital heart disease; dystonia; eating 
disorders; eczema; Ehlers-Danlos syndrome; endometriosis; 
epidermolysis bullosa; far-UVC germicidal light; fibrous 
dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome; focal segmental 
glomerulosclerosis; food allergies; Fragile X; frontotemporal 
degeneration; Guillain-Barre syndrome; hepatitis B; hereditary 
and acquired ataxias; Hermansky-Pudlack syndrome; 
hydrocephalus; inflammatory bowel disease; interstitial 
cystitis; malaria; maternal mental health; menopause; 
mitochondrial disease; multiple sclerosis; myalgic 
encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome; myotonic dystrophy; 
nephrotic syndrome; neurofibromatosis; orthotics and 
prosthetics outcomes; pancreatitis; Parkinson's; peripheral 
neuropathy; polycystic kidney disease; post-acute sequelae of 
SARS CoV-2 infection; proteomics; pulmonary fibrosis; 
reconstructive transplantation; respiratory health; Rett 
syndrome; scleroderma; sickle cell disease; sleep disorders and 
restriction; suicide prevention; tick-borne disease; traumatic 
brain injury and psychological health; tuberculosis; tuberous 
sclerosis complex; vision; and von Hippel-Lindau disease. The 
Committee emphasizes that the additional funding provided under 
the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program shall be devoted 
only to the purposes listed above.
    Peer-Reviewed Cancer Research Programs.--The Committee 
recommends $130,000,000 for the peer-reviewed breast cancer 
research program, $75,000,000 for the peer-reviewed prostate 
cancer research program, $40,000,000 for a peer-reviewed 
melanoma research program, $15,000,000 for the peer-reviewed 
ovarian cancer research program, $17,500,000 for a peer-
reviewed rare cancers research program, and $130,000,000 for 
the peer-reviewed cancer research program that would research 
cancers not addressed in the aforementioned programs currently 
executed by the Department of Defense.
    The funds provided in the peer-reviewed cancer research 
program are directed to be used to conduct research in the 
following areas: bladder cancer; blood cancers; brain cancer; 
colorectal cancer; endometrial cancer; esophageal cancer; germ 
cell cancers; kidney cancer; liver cancer; lung cancer; 
lymphoma; mesothelioma; neuroblastoma; neuroendocrine tumors; 
pancreatic cancer; pediatric brain tumors; pediatric, 
adolescent, and young adult cancers; sarcoma; stomach cancer; 
and thyroid cancer.
    The funds provided under the peer-reviewed cancer research 
program shall be used only for the purposes listed above. The 
Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 
Affairs) to provide a report not later than 18 months after the 
enactment of this act to the congressional defense committees 
on the status of the peer-reviewed cancer research program. For 
each research area, the report shall include the funding amount 
awarded, the progress of the research, and the relevance of the 
research to servicemembers.
    Maternal Health Care in the Military Health System.--The 
Committee is concerned about the barriers to maternal 
healthcare for servicemembers and their spouses within the 
Military Health System including access to prenatal care, labor 
and delivery, and postpartum care. The Committee notes that the 
restructuring of military treatment facilities further limited 
the availability of maternal healthcare. Therefore, the 
Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to provide a report 
to the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and the Senate not later than 120 days after 
enactment of this act including the following: (1) an analysis 
of the availability of maternal healthcare for servicemembers 
and their spouses who access the Military Health System through 
such facilities; (2) the short and long-term actions being 
taken to address each barriers and increase access to maternal 
healthcare by the Defense Health Agency and the military 
services; (3) the costs associated with the implementation of 
these measures; and (4) potential funding sources in future 
budget requests.
    Medical Research to Support Military Families.--The 
Committee recognizes the importance of military family health 
and well-being to servicemember readiness and morale and 
commends the Defense Health Agency for previous investments in 
the family and resilience portfolio. The Committee recommends 
an additional $15,000,000 for medical research to support 
military families and directs the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Health Affairs) to collaborate with institutions of 
higher education, Federal agencies, and non-profit entities 
that have robust research and clinical expertise with illness 
and conditions that have material effect on military family 
health and well-being, including, but not limited to adverse 
childhood events, menopause and mid-life women's health, 
medical barriers to growing and supporting families, mental and 
behavioral health, substance use disorders, and gender-specific 
healthcare. The Committee further directs the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to brief the Committees 
on Appropriations on the House of Representatives and the 
Senate on the plan for research in these areas, including an 
expected timeline for the research, not later than 90 days 
after enactment of this act. Finally, the Assistant Secretary 
of Defense (Health Affairs) shall submit a report to the 
Committees on Appropriations on the House of Representatives 
and the Senate not later than 120 days after enactment of this 
act on the status of the research being done on menopause and 
mid-life women's health.
    Multigenerational Impact of Toxic Exposures.--The Committee 
recommends $15,000,000 for the Toxic Exposures Research Program 
[TERP] to support research on the impacts of military toxic 
exposures. The Committee recognizes that servicemembers exposed 
to toxic substances during their military service are more 
likely to develop certain medical conditions, such as rare 
cancers, heart conditions, and chronic lung ailments, as a 
direct result of their toxic exposure. The Committee further 
recognizes that descendants of these toxic exposed 
servicemembers are also more likely to experience conditions 
related to their parents' or grandparents' exposure to toxic 
substances. While there has been some research on the link 
between birth defects and the multigenerational impacts of 
exposure to toxic substances, the Committee believes more must 
be done. Therefore, the Committee directs the Assistant 
Secretary (Health Affairs) in coordination with the Director of 
the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs to 
increase the number of TERP funded studies that evaluate how 
toxic exposures impact the descendants of toxic exposed 
servicemembers and veterans.
    Alzheimer's Therapies.--The Committee is concerned that 
TRICARE continues to explicitly exclude from coverage 
monoclonal antibodies for the prevention, treatment, or 
mitigation of symptoms related to mild cognitive impairment or 
Alzheimer's disease despite the U.S. Food and Drug 
Administration [FDA] approval and unequivocal evidence 
confirmed by the scientific community. The Committee recognizes 
that approval of a treatment by the FDA does not guarantee 
coverage under TRICARE, but notes that the health plan's 
current coverage policy, which specifically excludes specific 
treatments, is outdated and unwarranted. Given the progressive 
nature of Alzheimer's disease, the Committee encourages the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to update the 
TRICARE manual, Chapter 7 Section 15.1, Change 99 dated May 24, 
2022 to align with the current science.
    Peer-Reviewed Hydrocephalus Research Program.--The 
Committee is concerned about the large number of servicemembers 
at risk of developing hydrocephalus due to traumatic brain 
injury or other causes. Unfortunately, many of these cases are 
undiagnosed or misdiagnosed as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or 
another related dementia. Therefore, the Committee encourages 
the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to further 
its research into hydrocephalus for which there is no known 
cure.
    Peer-Reviewed Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Research.--The 
Committee is aware of promising research underway through the 
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [ALS] Research Program. The 
Committee recognizes that servicemembers are up to twice as 
likely to develop and die from ALS as those with no history of 
military service. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to prioritize 
clinical research and specifically, early phase clinical trials 
that can bring effective treatments to servicemembers and 
civilians living with ALS.
    Peer-Reviewed Epilepsy Research Program.--The Committee is 
aware that servicemembers and veterans can acquire epilepsy 
through a variety of means, but often times, traumatic brain 
injury [TBI] causes seizures to start which leads to a 
diagnosis of post-traumatic epilepsy [PTE]. The Epilepsy 
Research Program was initiated in 2015 to better understand the 
genesis and progression of PTE in order to improve prevention 
and treatment of it. The Committee encourages the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to prioritize the 
following topics within the Epilepsy Research Program: 
identifying biomarkers or mechanisms of PTE; epidemiological 
characterization of PTE following TBI; longitudinal studies of 
the evolution of PTE; and understanding and improving the 
quality of life of individuals with PTE.
    Peer-Reviewed Orthotics and Prosthetics Outcomes Research 
Program.--The Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Health Affairs) to continue research on orthotics and 
prosthetics outcomes and improve care for servicemembers and 
others with limb loss and impairment. The Committee further 
encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 
to include evidence-based practices that can evaluate which 
orthotic and prosthetic interventions can provide the most 
improvement in servicemembers' health status, functionality, 
quality of life, and be consistent with the Orthotics and 
Prosthetics Outcomes Research Program long-range strategic plan 
published by the Congressionally Directed Medical Research 
Programs in 2023.
    Rapid Traumatic Brain Injury Screening.--The Committee is 
concerned that the most recent Department of Defense Office of 
Inspector General report, Evaluation of the DoD's Management of 
Traumatic Brain Injury, from March 2023, found that the 
Department of Defense did not consistently implement policies 
and procedures to determine the care needed for servicemembers 
with traumatic brain injury [TBI]. The report concluded that 
the Department of Defense is unable to accurately identify, 
treat, and track incidents of TBI among the military services.
    The Committee urges the Assistant Secretary of Defense 
(Health Affairs) to make the rapid and accurate identification 
of TBI, both in combat and training, a top priority of the 
Defense Health Agency. Further, the Committee strongly 
encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 
to take advantage of the availability of breakthrough point-of-
care diagnostic solutions. The Committee notes the need for 
such a diagnostic tool for TBI testing as forward deployed 
medical personnel are currently unable to adequately treat head 
injuries, the most common injury on the battlefield. The 
ability to rapidly and accurately assess brain injury with 
point-of-care technology will greatly enhance the health of 
servicemembers and military readiness.
    Therefore, the Committee directs the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Health Affairs) to allocate sufficient funding to 
identify current gaps in screening and diagnosis of TBI, test 
and deploy the most innovative TBI screening and diagnostic 
tools to improve TBI assessment, and promote a better standard 
of care for TBI sustained by servicemembers in training and 
combat. The Committee further directs the Assistant Secretary 
of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide a report on the status 
of screening, diagnosis, and assessment of TBI among 
servicemembers to the congressional defense committees not 
later than 90 days after the enactment of this act.
    Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine.--The Committee is aware 
of research regarding the effectiveness of Osteopathic 
Manipulative Medicine [OMM] in reducing acute low back pain in 
active duty military personnel. This medicine is a non-
invasive, drug free treatment that can accelerate the recovery 
time and reduce the need for opioid pain medication of 
servicemembers, often at a cheaper cost burden to the Military 
Health System. While the Committee understands that OMM has 
been used to a limited degree in the Military Health System, 
the Committee remains concerned that not enough is being done 
to incorporate all methods of care to the armed forces. 
Therefore, the Committee directs the Secretary of Defense to 
provide a report to the Committees on Appropriations of the 
House of Representatives and the Senate not later than 180 days 
after enactment of this act, detailing how the Department of 
Defense can enhance research into the efficacy of OMM in 
treating servicemember pain and other combat-related injuries 
and integrate OMM into the Military Health System.
    Medical Defense Against Infectious Diseases.--The Committee 
recognizes the value of the Department of Defense's development 
of medical countermeasures for naturally occurring infectious 
diseases, such as malaria, leishmaniasis, diarrheal diseases, 
Dengue, and Chikungunya viruses which pose a significant threat 
to the strategic access and operational effectiveness of 
servicemembers deployed outside the United States. However, the 
Committee is concerned with the Department of Defense's 
decision to reduce funding for malaria, leishmaniasis, and 
diarrheal research as these diseases remain top infectious 
disease threats to servicemembers deployed abroad. Therefore, 
the Committee encourages continued research to develop drugs, 
tests, vaccines, and other medical countermeasures for malaria, 
leishmaniasis, diarrheal diseases, and health security threats. 
The Committee further encourages the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Health Affairs) to partner with non-profit 
organizations, academic institutions, Federal agencies, foreign 
governments, and international agencies that have infectious 
disease research programs.
    Peer-Reviewed Endometriosis Research.--The Committee notes 
that more than 6.5 million women in the United States have 
endometriosis. Endometriosis is a disqualifying condition for 
active duty servicemembers and may prevent women from serving 
in the military. The Committee further notes that a typical 
endometriosis diagnosis cannot be provided without exploratory 
abdominal surgery and the common treatment for endometriosis 
remains pain management. Therefore, the Committee encourages 
the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to support 
endometriosis research within the Peer-Reviewed Medical 
Research Program with a specific focus on the efficacy of 
excision surgical procedures in reducing the symptoms and 
recurrence of endometriosis, and techniques for medical 
procedures that reduce the need for multiple surgeries by 
focusing on diagnosing and treating endometriosis by excision 
within the same surgery. The Committee further encourages the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to partner with 
research institutions seeking to perform complimentary 
endometriosis research.
    Nonaddictive Opioid Alternative.--The Committee is 
concerned about the continued use of opioids in the military 
for the treatment of pain. The Committee directs the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to provide a report to 
the Committees on Appropriations of the House of 
Representatives and the Senate and publicly post on its website 
not later than 60 days after enactment of this act on steps the 
Department of Defense will take to ensure that nonaddictive 
alternatives to opioids are on the formulary. The report shall 
include a timeline detailing when these medications will be 
available to servicemembers once they have received U.S. Food 
and Drug Administration approval.
    Rapid Deployable Synthetic Vaccine Development.--The 
Committee notes the significant advancements in vaccine 
development and the need to quickly distribute infectious 
disease counter-measures when required to protect 
servicemembers deployed worldwide. The Committee directs the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to research the 
development of low cost, single dose, and highly scalable 
synthetic peptide vaccines that allow for rapid deployment to 
military personnel against infectious disease threats.
    Peer-Reviewed Menopause Research.--The Committee notes that 
menopause related research pertaining to breast cancer is 
currently eligible under the Breast Cancer Research Program. 
The Committee further encourages the Assistant Secretary of 
Defense (Health Affairs) to support menopause related research 
under the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program and to 
exchange relevant research activities with the Director of the 
National Institutes of Health.
    Peer-Reviewed Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Research.--The 
Committee has included tuberous sclerosis complex research as 
part of the Peer-Reviewed Medical Research Program and strongly 
supports continued medical research funding focused on 
identifying and developing effective treatments for this 
condition afflicting an estimated 50,000 Americans.
    Whole Blood Platelet Technologies.--The Committee 
encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 
to support investments in whole blood platelet technologies. 
The Committee notes that production of whole blood platelets 
will enable pandemic preparedness and surge capacity during a 
national disaster when platelet transfusion is required to 
support injured patients in the civilian and military 
population.
    Peer-Reviewed Celiac Disease Research.--The Committee 
recognizes the growing prevalence of celiac disease among 
servicemembers and the lack of medication or cure for this 
disease. Further, the Committee notes that celiac disease 
increases the mortality risks for other diseases, including 
cancer, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory disease, and 
the risk for chronic illnesses. Therefore, the Committee 
encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) 
to prioritize celiac disease research to better understand the 
magnitude of the problem and improve patient care and long-term 
outcomes.
    Partnerships With Academic Medical Centers for 
Reconstructive Care.--The Committee recognizes that 
servicemembers often face uniquely debilitating wounds that can 
require complex care over a prolonged period. The Committee 
further recognizes that academic medical centers are developing 
multidisciplinary treatment and research programs centered on 
advanced clinical care and novel research strategies aimed at 
benefiting the injured servicemember. The large volume and 
heightened complexity of reconstructive care provided at these 
academic medical centers makes them well suited to augment the 
reconstructive care available within the Military Health 
System. Therefore, the Committee encourages the Assistant 
Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to develop partnerships 
with academic medical centers to provide improved access to 
advanced reconstructive care for injured servicemembers, as 
well as opportunities for surgical training in advanced 
reconstructive techniques to include nerve reconstruction and 
microsurgery.
    Neuro-Rehabilitation Technologies.--The Committee 
recognizes the Department of Defense's research, development, 
and clinical activities supporting servicemember health, 
readiness, and post-injury rehabilitation. The Committee notes 
the Department of Defense's continued efforts to advance 
rehabilitative technologies and interventions to improve 
servicemember quality of life and help with the return to duty 
following traumatic injuries impacting muscular and 
neurological function. The Committee is aware of advances in 
neuro-rehabilitative modalities, including cognitive and mental 
wellness multidisciplinary care models using virtual reality 
and immersive therapies capable of improving the effectiveness 
of rehabilitative interventions for servicemembers and TRICARE 
beneficiaries. Therefore, the Committee encourages the 
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) to increase 
research and development investments in neuro-rehabilitative 
technologies. The Committee further encourages the Department 
of Defense to partner with universities and academic medical 
centers to advance next-generation neuro-rehabilitative 
evaluation and treatment technologies.
    Preemptive Health and Medicine Research.--The Committee 
notes that the field of preemptive health research has the 
potential to revolutionize the way the United States protects 
against a wide range of infectious disease threats and the way 
the country can prevent and preempt diseases such as diabetes, 
cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. This area of research 
will improve our ability to maintain human health, identify 
early signals of predisease, and intervene to keep 
servicemembers and civilians from getting sick. Therefore, the 
Committee encourages the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health 
Affairs) to prioritize funding for preemptive health and 
medicine research to detect and protect individuals against 
infectious diseases or the onset of chronic diseases.
