Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing federal obligations in Pennsylvania

USAspending.gov records $292,425,996.58 in Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing (NAICS 332993) obligations with Pennsylvania place of performance, across 122 awards. That pair is an industry code crossed with a geography filter, not a national munitions budget. Average obligation per award is about $2,396,934.40 — a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical ammunition contract.

Key figures

  • NAICS 332993 in Pennsylvania: $292,425,996.58 across 122 awards.
  • Average obligation per award is about $2,396,934.40.
  • The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide Ammunition manufacturing.
  • PA is place of performance, not a plant-only split.

What NAICS 332993 and Pennsylvania share on one row

NAICS 332993 and place-of-performance state PA meet here. $292,425,996.58 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Pennsylvania, not the nationwide Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing total, and not cash already paid. Ammunition-plant folklore and statewide ordnance stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a plant list and not a round census.

122 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — a relatively short award list beside a nine-figure obligation total. A relatively short row list can still mix large instruments with smaller modifications. The join does not rank Pennsylvania against other states and does not name plants inside the extract.

Open Pennsylvania federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 332993 for the next hub, Pennsylvania industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

122 ammunition-manufacturing actions under a Pennsylvania geography tag

Dividing $292,425,996.58 by 122 yields about $2,396,934.40 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical ammunition contract. NAICS 332993 is ammunition except small arms, not small-arms ammunition (332992) and not small-arms manufacturing (332994). Those codes sit on other industry hubs. Do not collapse them because they can appear in the same state.

Ammunition-plant folklore and statewide ordnance stories is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative's extra columns.

NAICS 332993 without a Pennsylvania overlay is a different total

The NAICS 332993 page aggregates NAICS 332993 without requiring PA geography. The Pennsylvania federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Pennsylvania place of performance. Pennsylvania industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 332993 filter and the PA filter, which is why it cites 122 awards and $292,425,996.58.

Place of performance in Pennsylvania is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list PA while work occurs in New Jersey or Maryland. 332993 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a plant's mailroom is in Scranton. This packet does not split Scranton from Philadelphia or Pittsburgh.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $292,425,996.58 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Pennsylvania over-reads the field.

Award count 122 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Pennsylvania federal spending, NAICS 332993, and Pennsylvania industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 332993 total in Pennsylvania does not mean manufacturers caused Pennsylvania's industrial mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between plant geography and ammunition awards is expected; it is not a finding about readiness or waste.

Keep $292,425,996.58 labeled as NAICS 332993 obligations with Pennsylvania place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

How to cite the Pennsylvania-332993 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 332993 (Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing), Pennsylvania place of performance, $292,425,996.58 in obligations, and 122 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $292,425,996.58 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $2,396,934.40 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical ammunition contract.

Pennsylvania federal spending, NAICS 332993, Pennsylvania industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $292,425,996.58 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Scranton-versus-Philadelphia folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Plant names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.
