Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program funding in FY2024

USAspending.gov records $4,198,271,753.21 in Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program obligations for fiscal year 2024.

FY2024 obligations of $4,198,271,753.21 are 91.7% of the program-wide $4,579,717,649.61 book in this extract. The year cell lists 1,865 awards; the program table lists 2,483 across the extract. USAspending.gov is the source.

FY2024 yearlyTrend for CFDA 12.800 is a pair, not a program restated as one year

Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program and fiscal year 2024 meet here. $4,198,271,753.21 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program’s nationwide all-year total of $4,579,717,649.61, not every federal dollar coded to FY2024, and not an outlay register. The FY cell is 91.7% of the program-wide $4,579,717,649.61 book in this extract. Correlation is not causation: a large year cell does not prove that 2024 caused activity described by the program title.

FEC contribution tables do not fund these USAspending obligations. CFDA 12.800 drops the year filter. FY2024 federal spending drops the CFDA filter. All programs and All spending ties are parent indexes. A Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program award tagged to a different fiscal year sits outside this cell even if the CFDA is still 12.800.

Fiscal year 2024 as the time key on Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program

FY2024 is the yearlyTrend year key. It is not a calendar year and not a count of 1,865 unique laboratories, contractors, or research tasks. Awards that carry a different year sit outside this cell even if the listing is still Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program. FY figures can be incomplete for a current year. Do not annualize $4,198,271,753.21 into a run-rate the packet never computed. Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program is the catalog title on CFDA 12.800; Air Force is part of that title, not a separate awarding-agency field on this packet. FY2024 is the yearlyTrend year. Contractor names, lab names, and topic splits are unpublished. This page will not invent contractors. Do not treat the cell as aircraft already delivered.

CFDA 12.800 as a catalog line, not a named-contractor list, a classified-program file, or a personnel end-strength table

CFDA 12.800 is AIR FORCE DEFENSE RESEARCH SCIENCES PROGRAM. Packet facts on the program side are the name Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program, number 12.800, program-wide obligations $4,579,717,649.61, and 2,483 parent awards. This packet lists no award recipients and no contractor names. Any other vendor, grantee, school, tribe, or household list would be invented. Mixing this listing with other defense-research catalog lines that are not CFDA 12.800 would invent a combined total the packet never computed.

Reading 1,865 FY2024 rows without a unit census

1,865 is the year-cell award-record count. It is not 1,865 unique laboratories, contractors, or research tasks. A mean of about $2,251,084.05 if $4,198,271,753.21 were divided evenly across 1,865 lines is arithmetic, not a typical payment. Unique vendors and places of performance are unpublished. The parent’s 2,483 awards remain an all-year table, not a FY2024-only census.

What the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program × FY2024 join will not prove

Keep $4,198,271,753.21 labeled as obligations. Outlays, remaining balances, and recipient names are unpublished. The join is not a weapons-inventory, a named-lab roster, or an aircraft-production table. It is not a named-contractor list, a classified-program file, or a personnel end-strength table. Quote Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program and FY2024 together. Later bulk files can move both the dollars and the 1,865-award count.

Prefer those live tables after later ingests. Cite CFDA 12.800, FY2024, $4,198,271,753.21, USAspending.gov, obligations only. Keep Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program and FY2024 on the same line as $4,198,271,753.21. CFDA 12.800 remains the program key; fiscal year 2024 remains the time key. Obligations of $4,198,271,753.21 are not outlays and not a named-contractor list, a classified-program file, or a personnel end-strength table. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this yearlyTrend cell.
