U.S. Special Operations Command's contract dollars, traced to the source.

U.S. Special Operations Command · Department of War

U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) is the Department of War unified command that organizes, trains, equips & sustains the nation's special operations forces across the services. Its ~$4.32B in FY2025 contract obligations are dominated by rotary-wing aircraft production (Boeing H-47/MH-47G heavy-lift helicopters), large enterprise mission-support & core IT services (Amentum), and R&D-heavy engineering-and-manufacturing-development plus radar & sensor systems (Sierra Nevada, Raytheon Silent Knight). The mix skews toward specialized aviation platforms, systems integration, and foreign-military-sales hardware rather than routine logistics.

What this monitor reads — and what it doesn't

This is the contract-signal tier: the live USAspending award feed for the U.S. Special Operations Command awarding sub-agency. It shows where SOCOM'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 contract (procurement) slice reported to USAspending, not SOCOM's total budget authority or appropriations. The appropriation-level view lives on the Department of War monitor.
