The four largest programs accounted for just over half of the planned cost of the portfolio (see figure).
For the 21 programs, 70 percent ($6.4 billion) of the total reported cost across the 3 years was for operating and maintaining the systems and 30 percent ($2.7 billion) was for development and modernization.
