Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing in Virginia 9th District (VA-09)

NAICS 332993 × VA-09 is a southwest-Virginia munitions join, not a plant roster

This page is a join: Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing (NAICS 332993) as the industry key, and Virginia 9th District (VA-09) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $1,594,430,584.88 on 29 awards. The join is NAICS 332993 crossed with a VA-09 location field, not Virginia's entire ammunition book and not a named-plant inventory. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 29 awards equal 29 plants or 29 unique primes.

The WI-01, IA-01, and IL-12 332993 joins sit outside this total unless they also carry NAICS 332993 and VA-09. Mixing those books into $1,594,430,584.88 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and local munitions-plant employment is not causation. Plant names and lot numbers are not in the packet. Place of performance as VA-09 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $1,594,430,584.88 in a district treasury. Radford-versus-Blacksburg folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

29 awards behind $1.59 billion

Mean obligation is about $54,980,365 if $1,594,430,584.88 were divided evenly across 29 lines. That ratio is not a published unit cost and not a typical ammunition invoice. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of plants, lots, or unique vendors. Twenty-nine awards against a $1.59 billion cell is a concentrated munitions file, thicker in rows than WI-01's fourteen-award 332993 join.

Production lots can post as mixed high-dollar rows. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Virginia 9th District for the stored district table. Do not convert 29 into a map of Virginia 9th District munitions plants. The $1,594,430,584.88 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a plant census.

Virginia 9th District, not a statewide ammunition rollup

Virginia 9th District (VA-09) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to VA-10, VA-03, or another Virginia district are out even if the ammunition program sounds related. Recipient address can differ from that district tag. The district parent in this extract is $10,886,757,864.58 across every industry; $1,594,430,584.88 is the Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing slice — about 14.6% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover NAICS list.

A statewide large-caliber ammunition figure on Virginia federal spending is a different shelf. Do not rank VA-09 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other Virginia district cells are other joins. Virginia federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing dollars to $1,594,430,584.88 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

NAICS 332993 obligations are not rounds already accepted

Ammunition (except small arms) awards often obligate as production lots and draw as lots are accepted. The $1,594,430,584.88 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of rounds already shipped and not a Treasury outlay total. A munitions production dashboard dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses NAICS 332993, VA-09 geography, and the obligation metric.

NAICS 332993 is the nationwide industry book without a VA-09 filter. This extract does not split calibers or lots, and it does not merge small-arms ammunition (332992) into this except-small-arms code. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 29 awards, NAICS 332993, and Virginia 9th District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the VA-09 ammunition table omits

The extract has no plant names, primes, or lot numbers. Facts remain $1,594,430,584.88, 29 awards, NAICS 332993, Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing, Virginia 9th District (VA-09), and district parent $10,886,757,864.58. Southwest Virginia munitions folklore belongs on another extract if it appears at all. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 29-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.

Where the 332993 × VA-09 pair lives

Start with Virginia 9th District for the district rollup that contains this Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing cell. NAICS 332993 is the nationwide NAICS 332993 listing. Virginia federal spending gives Virginia context without a VA-09 filter. All spending ties indexes other two-key joins on the same obligation metric. Twenty-nine awards totaling this cell remain an administrative file, not a plant roster. Keep both Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing and Virginia 9th District (VA-09) in every citation sentence. Do not recast $1,594,430,584.88 as cash already paid or as Virginia's entire ammunition appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. FEC contribution tables do not fund this cell.
