About this data

Confirmed links (≥0.8 confidence) are validated at ~92% precision against an expert-reviewed sample of 545 links across 62 programs. Every confirmed claim in an answer cites the evidence — if there's no citation, treat it as analysis, not database fact.

Air Force RDT&E data has two gaps: PB2025 and PB2027 AF J-books were never posted publicly. Absence of an AF program in those cycles means the data isn't available — not that the program was cut or restructured.

Dollar totals are not market size. Confirmed-linked contracts include platform production awards (aircraft, ships) that dwarf the R&D lines linking to them. The RDT&E sector runs ~$9–10.5B/yr in recent cycles.
