Missile Defense Agency's contract dollars, traced to the source.

Missile Defense Agency · Department of War

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is the Department of War component charged with developing, testing, and fielding the layered Missile Defense System that protects the U.S., its forces, and allies against ballistic and hypersonic missile threats. Its ~$9.08B in FY2025 contract obligations are overwhelmingly concentrated in interceptor and weapons-system programs — THAAD interceptor production, Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) development & sustainment, the Next Generation Interceptor, and Aegis BMD — with dollars flowing chiefly to prime integrators Lockheed Martin & Boeing. This is procurement heavy on hardware production, systems engineering, and developmental R&D rather than services or IT.

What this monitor reads — and what it doesn't

This is the contract-signal tier: the live USAspending award feed for the Missile Defense Agency awarding sub-agency. It shows where MDA's procurement dollars go — obligations over time and the largest awards — not total budget authority, which also includes payroll, grants, and transfers. Figures reflect the FY2025 contract (procurement) slice from USAspending award data, not MDA's total budget authority or appropriations. The appropriation-level view lives on the Department of War monitor.
