Explosives Manufacturing

NAICS 325920 · Federal Contracts & Awards

Fiscal year 2025 carries $1,384,582,964.59 in Explosives Manufacturing obligations on USAspending.gov under NAICS 325920. That yearlyTrend cell is 35.4% of this explosives extract. A one-third year share is still a multi-billion-dollar industry book split across years, not a named-plant story. This page is the industry-and-year join: Explosives Manufacturing (NAICS 325920) crossed with federal fiscal year 2025 — not every federal dollar in FY2025, not Explosives Manufacturing's $3,912,664,088.83 extract-wide book, and not cash already paid. The cell is 35.4% of this industry's published obligation total. 1,097 is the industry-extract award-record count, not a FY2025-only instrument tally. USAspending.gov is the source. Correlation is not causation.

Key figures

  • Explosives Manufacturing in FY2025: $1,384,582,964.59 in USAspending obligations (NAICS 325920).
  • That cell is 35.4% of the industry's $3,912,664,088.83 extract-wide total.
  • 1,097 is the industry-extract award-record count, not a FY2025 census.
  • NAICS 325920 × FY2025 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not a named-recipient list.
  • Cite USAspending.gov; quote /industries/325920/ and /fiscal-years/2025/ if live tables moved.

Two keys: explosives manufacturing and FY2025

NAICS 325920 and fiscal year 2025 share one yearlyTrend cell. $1,384,582,964.59 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on the row that carries both tags. It is not Explosives Manufacturing's nationwide all-year total of $3,912,664,088.83, not every federal dollar coded to FY2025, and not an outlay register. The packet does not split industrial from other explosive lines, or contract from assistance. 1,097 is an industry-extract action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows across years. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a lot-release log, a named-plant roster, or a product-by-product inventory.

Read /industries/325920/ (NAICS 325920) for the industry table without this FY2025 filter, /fiscal-years/2025/ (FY2025 federal spending) for the year table without this NAICS filter, /industries/ (All industries) for every industry, and /ties/ (All spending ties) for the rest of the join list. Those hubs are parents, not addends to $1,384,582,964.59. Keep 325920 on FY2025. Inorganic chemicals (325180) and industrial gases (325120) in this slice are different manufacturing keys.

The headline $1,384,582,964.59 sits beside an industry-wide obligation total of $3,912,664,088.83; the 35.4% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of fiscal years as winners or losers. Obligations are not outlays. Do not invent product names or a plant roster. Recipients remain unpublished.

Explosives Manufacturing is the industry key, not a program title

USAspending labels NAICS 325920 as Explosives Manufacturing. That code produced $1,384,582,964.59 when crossed with fiscal year 2025. The industry-wide 325920 hub does not require a FY2025 filter. The year hub does not require Explosives Manufacturing. Only this tie applies both filters. The packet does not split industrial from other explosive lines, or contract from assistance. FY2025 incompleteness applies. A later ingest can restate explosives dollars without changing the join keys.

Questions

How much Explosives Manufacturing spending is obligated in FY2025?
USAspending.gov lists $1,384,582,964.59 in Explosives Manufacturing (NAICS 325920) obligations for FY2025. That yearlyTrend amount is 35.4% of the industry's $3,912,664,088.83 extract-wide total. It is an obligation join, not an outlay and not every federal dollar in FY2025. Unique recipients are unpublished.
Is $1,384,582,964.59 the entire Explosives Manufacturing USAspending total?
No. NAICS 325920's extract-wide total is $3,912,664,088.83. FY2025 is 35.4% of that book. Other fiscal-year rows for the same industry are separate cells. Do not add /industries/325920/ into this join. 1,097 award records stay on the industry extract, not on this yearlyTrend row.
Is $1,384,582,964.59 cash already paid in FY2025?
No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $1,384,582,964.59 as checks already cleared in FY2025 confuses those terms. Prefer the live industry and year hubs if the tables moved.
Are FY2025 figures final?
Not necessarily. The source note says FY figures can be incomplete for the current year. $1,384,582,964.59 is the published yearlyTrend amount for NAICS 325920 in FY2025 on this snapshot. Prefer /industries/325920/ and /fiscal-years/2025/ if live tables moved. Outlays are unpublished.

USAspending.gov NAICS yearlyTrend by fiscal year. Obligations are not outlays. FY figures can be incomplete for the current year.
