This list includes items from the procurement budget, and the RDT&E (Research, Development, Test and Evaluation) budget. NOTE: This is a preliminary version - a more accurate picture of the costs of these programs will be made after I obtain the joint House-Senate Armed Services Committees defense budget for fiscal year 1995. Prepared by: Paul McGinnis P.O. Box 28084 Santa Ana, CA 92799 Internet: TRADER@cup.portal.com / trader@shell.portal.com America Online: PaulMcG [PaulMcG@aol.com] Compuserve: 76056,201 [76056.201@compuserve.com] GEnie: EXP.ENG- This document was created from unclassified sources. (See list at the end of this document for sources). Programs are listed by R-1 line (line item in the agency's RDT&E budget) or P-1 line (line item in the procurement budget), Program Element (PE) number, and description or codename. (Codenames are indicated with capital letters, i.e., MERIDIAN). It lists programs that Congress will fund for fiscal year 1995. RDT&E funding is typically used for advanced weapons (this is how the Stealth fighter was funded) and for intelligence activities. ************************************************************************** Army exploratory development programs _____________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 4 0602104A TRACTOR ROSE / $7.6 million 7 0602122A TRACTOR HIP / $11.5 million 30 0602788A TRACTOR FLOP / $0.4 million Army advanced development programs __________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 40 0603009A TRACTOR HIKE / $5.4 million 41 0603012A TRACTOR HOLE / $7.8 million 42 0603013A TRACTOR DIRT / $1.7 million 43 0603017A TRACTOR RED / $10.2 million 44 0603020A TRACTOR ROSE / $3.2 million 47 0603122A TRACTOR HIP / $4.6 million 51 0603322A TRACTOR CAGE / $17.5 million Army demonstration and validation programs __________________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 60 0603018A TRACTOR TREAD / $5.8 million 61 0603019A TRACTOR DUMP / $15.8 million 69 0603639A "armament enhancement initiative" / [classified cost] / {note 1}, (includes funds for X-rod 120mm rocket boosted tank round) 90 0603831A "classified program" / [classified cost] / {note 1}, (developed jointly with the Air Force but the Air Force is no longer part of this program) 91 0102830A "classified program" / [classified cost] / {note 1}, (developed jointly with the Air Force, but the Air Force is no longer part of this program) Army engineering and manufacturing programs ___________________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 121 0604768A TRACTOR BAT / $119 million 134 0604817A "non-cooperative target recognition" / $13.7 million Army operational systems development programs _____________________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 175 0203806A TRACTOR RIG / $2.7 million / (appears to be an advanced tactical missile technology) 176 0203808A TRACTOR CARD / $14.6 million / (appears to be an advanced tactical missile technology) 179 0301359A "special Army program" / [classified cost] / {note 1}, (Army intelligence program, code-named SHEEPWALK) 183 0305127A "foreign counterintelligence activities" / [classified cost] / {note 1} 184 0305150A "airborne reconnaissance low" / $11.4 million / (new program for fiscal year 1995) Notes: {1} The total cost of the Army programs whose cost is classified is approximately $37.9 million. ************************************************************************** Navy demonstration and validation programs __________________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 34 0603254N "ASW systems development" / $40.5 million / (includes funds for classifed anti-submarine aircraft program code-named BEARTRAP) 44 0603525N PILOT FISH / $35.3 million 46 0603365N RETRACT JUNIPER / $20.6 million 55 0603576N CHALK EAGLE / $59.8 million 73 0603734N CHALK CORAL / $68.8 million 77 0603746N RETRACT MAPLE / $102.7 million 78 0603748N LINK PLUMERIA / $29.8 million 80 0603751N RETRACT ELM / $39.5 million 82 0603755N "ship self defense" / $200.8 million / (includes the new "rolling airframe" missile for defense against anti-ship missiles) 85 0603787N "special processes" / $33 million Navy engineering and manufacturing programs ___________________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 133 0604755N "ship self defense" / $181.5 million / (includes the new "rolling airframe missile" for defense against anti-ship missiles) Navy operational systems development programs _____________________________________________ R-1 Program line Element Description / Cost / Notes __________________________________________________________________________ 186 0301327N "technical reconnaissance & surveillance" / [classified cost] / {note 2} (probably the follow-on to the Navy's older signals intelligence (SIGINT) collection programs code-named PRAIRIE WAGON and PRAIRIE SCHOONER) 188 0303140N "information systems security program" / [classified cost] / {note 2}, (the purpose of this program (distributed cryptography) is not classified, but the costs are) 190 0304111N "special activities" / [classified cost] / {note 2}, (widely believed to fund the Navy's share of costs for the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), that operates U.S. spy satellites.

Intelligence programs operated by Department of Defense components normally fall under 3 major areas: - NFIP (National Foreign Intelligence Program) - GDIP (General Defense Intelligence Program) - TIARA (Tactical Intelligence And Related Activities) * "special programs", PE 0102814A, no longer in Army budget for FY 1995. * "world-wide military communications & control system (WWMCCS)", PE 0303152A, had its funding terminate in FY 1995. * "airborne reconnaissance low", PE 0305150A is a new program for FY 1995. * OLYMPIC, PE 0603105F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995. * "classified program", PE 0102830F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995 * "intelligence production activities", PE 0301305F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995. * "intelligence telecom & defense special security system", PE 0301339F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995. * "space subsystems technology", PE 0603428F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995. * "Defense Reconnaissance Support activities", PE 0305159F, no longer in Air Force budget for FY 1995. * "global grid communications", PE 0303123G, no longer in the National Security Agency FY 1995 budget. * "foreign counterintelligence activities", PE 0305127V, new program for FY 1995. ************************************************************************** REFERENCES USED TO CREATE THIS REPORT: The creation of this document required extensive research, and the piecing together of information from multiple unclassified sources. (What I did is something that intelligence officials worry about - I used the so-called "mosaic" approach to discover classified information by putting together many scraps of information from unclassified sources.) * Numerous Congressional documents, such as the House and Senate versions of the "National Defense Authorization Acts" for fiscal years 1990 to 1995. (both the reports and the supporting testimony to Congress) * Department of Defense Handbook DoD 7045.7-H, "FYDP Program Structure", October 1993. * Department of the Air Force document "Supporting Data for Fiscal Year 1994 - Budget Estimate Submission - Descriptive Summaries - Research, Development, Test and Evaluation", April 1993, copy 29 of 50, available from NTIS as item PB93-220879. * Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) document AD-A264 093, "FY 1994 Congressional Submission - RDT&E Descriptive Summaries", April 1993. * Department of Defense document AD-A234 900, "Critical Technologies Plan for the Committees on Armed Services - United States Congress", May 1991. (I highly recommend this document for its descriptions of the technologies the U.S. military is interested in for the 1990s. The 1991 edition is the last Critical Technologies Plan that focused on defense. Subsequent Critical Technologies Plans focus on all areas of national technical interest.) * budget summary documents released under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Title 10 of the United States Code requires that Congress be provided with program summaries. Section 2301 (10 U.S.C. 2301) covers unclassified programs while Section 119 (10 U.S.C. 119) covers classified programs. * some material on spy satellites was provided by the Federation of American Scientists. ************************************************************************** Costs of these programs are those the House of Representatives has approved -- there may be minor changes in the joint Senate-House appropriation for fiscal year 1995. Unfortunately, the Senate-House joint budget that was decided in June of 1994 has not yet appeared at my local federal depository. Other classified programs exist, but funding is provided by Department of Defense components, such as the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) or the Defense Intelligence Agency. The House Armed Services Committee uses the phrase "appropriated but not authorized Special Access Programs" to describe these. An example would be the Air Force's "Project ELEGANT LADY", PE 0208040F. Also, given the secrecy surrounding classified programs, I've probably missed a few in the budget documents I've seen or made mistakes in the information given above. Although Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the U.S. Constitution requires that all public money be publicly accounted for, senior military officials seem to feel the Constitution doesn't apply to them. That's the reason I created this report -- to expose acts that violate the U.S. Constitution. I believe that American taxpayers have a right to know how and where their money is being spent. * END OF FILE * ------------------------------------------------ (This file was found elsewhere on the Internet and uploaded to the Radio Free Michigan site by the archive maintainer.
