Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing in Alabama (NAICS 332993)
USAspending.gov records $61,671,507.26 in NAICS 332993 (Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing) obligations with Alabama place of performance, across 118 awards. The pair is NAICS 332993 plus Alabama geography, not Alabama's apparel or facilities-support overlays on this slice and not Tennessee's same-code ammunition cell. 118 awards against that dollar total imply about $522,640 per award, a lumpy ammunition book rather than a small-arms catalog. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov.

- Average obligation per award is about $522,640.

- The total is obligations, not outlays; AL is place of performance.
Alabama and ammunition except small arms as a pair
NAICS 332993 and place-of-performance state AL meet on this tie. $61,671,507.26 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Alabama's statewide federal total, not the nationwide ammunition (except small arms) manufacturing rollup, and not cash already paid. USAspending labels the industry Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing; this overlay applies that code only where Alabama is the geography field.
118 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Reading 118 as plants, offices, or payrolls in Alabama would confuse actions with establishments. The join does not rank Alabama against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.
Open Alabama federal spending for the state rollup, NAICS 332993 for the industry hub, Alabama industries for other NAICS in the same geography, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parent pages into $61,671,507.26.
NAICS 332993, not Alabama apparel or computers
USAspending labels NAICS 332993 as Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing. The packet does not name calibers, plants, or primes. Small arms, ordnance, and ordnance accessories manufacturing is a different six-digit code; Wisconsin carries that neighboring label (NAICS 332994) on this slice at $53,951,565.76 across 2,686 awards. Do not fold 332994 into Alabama's 332993 cell.
Tennessee's same-code overlay on this slice is $47,899,782.44 across 48 awards. Same ammunition-except-small-arms label, two states, different dollar and action counts. Keep Alabama's 118 rows attached to $61,671,507.26. Award titles on the NAICS 332993 hub are the place to see what a given line bought.
Place of performance in Alabama
Alabama on this join is a geography field, not a Huntsville-only overlay. Place of performance can list AL while later work occurs in Georgia or Mississippi; those states are not inside this total unless also coded AL. The packet does not split counties.
Alabama's same-slice companions include cut-and-sew apparel contractors (NAICS 315210), facilities support services (NAICS 561210), and electronic computer manufacturing (NAICS 334111). Sharing AL geography does not merge those codes into the ammunition total.
118 awards and a large mean
Dividing $61,671,507.26 by 118 yields about $522,640 per award on average. That mean is still only a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical munitions invoice. Award count 118 is a record count, not a payment count.
An obligation is a legal commitment. $61,671,507.26 is that kind of sum. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing the figure as cash already spent in Alabama over-reads the field.
What the ammunition-Alabama join does not prove
A mid-count ammunition cell is not proof of a single Alabama prime and not a ranking of states as more or less specialized in munitions. FEC filings and USAspending awards are different datasets. Keep $61,671,507.26 labeled as NAICS 332993 obligations with Alabama place of performance. Correlation is not causation.
A later ingest can restate $61,671,507.26 or the 118 count without changing the join key of NAICS 332993 and AL. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside Alabama. Keep the obligation word on $61,671,507.26 in every footnote.
How to cite ammunition manufacturing in Alabama
Cite USAspending.gov, NAICS 332993 (Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing), Alabama (AL), $61,671,507.26, and 118 awards. Note that the figures are obligations. Point readers to Alabama federal spending, NAICS 332993, Alabama industries, and All spending ties rather than collapsing those pages into this cell. Mean per award stays about $522,640 as a ratio only.
Readers who reuse this snapshot should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. This narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Alabama's 332993 cell is ammunition (except small arms) manufacturing. 118 awards and $61,671,507.26 are not other NAICS in the same state and not the same NAICS in another state unless those figures appear above.
