Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once the indisputably dominant power at sea, the United States has seen this dominance erode over the past two decades as a result of steady growth in Soviet naval capabilities and declining force levels in the U.S. Navy. Between 1970 and 1980 the total number of ships in the U.S. Navy fell from 847 to 538 and uniformed personnel strength declined from 675,000 to about 525,000. Although the remaining ships are newer and more capable than those retired, the Navy now has substantially fewer ships with which to sustain its peacetime commitments or to conduct wartime operations. One result has been an operational pace in recent years nearly unprecedented in peacetime. The Chief of Naval Operations recently testified that "the Navy has been at virtually a wartime operating tempo since the beginning of the Vietnam conflict and has never stood down."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the Administration assumed office in January 1981, it inherited a fleet of about 480 ships, including twelve deployable carrier battle groups. Considering this fleet inadequate for U.S. defense needs, the Administration established higher force goals in almost every ship category, with the objective of building up the total number of battle force ships to over 600 by the end of the 1980s. Other key goals were an increase in deployable carrier battle groups from 12 to 15 and a comparable increase in aircraft to fly from these carriers. Concerns have been raised about the costs of attaining and maintaining this 600-ship Navy. Such concerns could be well-founded. From 1980 through 1985, the Navy's total budget grew at a real (inflation-adjusted) average annual rate of about 7 percent a year, or from $71.5 billion in 1980 (adjusted for accrual accounting) to $100.3 billion in 1985. This study estimates that, over the next decade, the Navy's budget would have to continue to increase at a real rate of between 3 and 6 percent a year to meet the Navy's goals. Such sustained growth would result in doubling the Navy budgets in constant dollars between 1980 and 1994.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Updated 12/10/2020: In December 2016, the Navy released a force-structure goal that callsfor achieving and maintaining a fleet of 355 ships of certain types and numbers. The 355-shipgoal was made U.S. policy by Section 1025 of the FY2018 National Defense AuthorizationAct (H.R. 2810/P.L. 115- 91 of December 12, 2017). The Navy and the Department of Defense(DOD) have been working since 2019 to develop a successor for the 355-ship force-level goal.The new goal is expected to introduce a new, more distributed fleet architecture featuring asmaller proportion of larger ships, a larger proportion of smaller ships, and a new third tier oflarge unmanned vehicles (UVs). On December 9, 2020, the Trump Administration released a document that can beviewed as its vision for future Navy force structure and/or a draft version of the FY202230-year Navy shipbuilding plan. The document presents a Navy force-level goal that callsfor achieving by 2045 a Navy with a more distributed fleet architecture, 382 to 446 mannedships, and 143 to 242 large UVs. The Administration that takes office on January 20, 2021,is required by law to release the FY2022 30-year Navy shipbuilding plan in connection withDOD's proposed FY2022 budget, which will be submitted to Congress in 2021. In preparingthe FY2022 30-year shipbuilding plan, the Administration that takes office on January 20,2021, may choose to adopt, revise, or set aside the document that was released on December9, 2020. The Navy states that its original FY2021 budget submission requests the procurement ofeight new ships, but this figure includes LPD-31, an LPD-17 Flight II amphibious ship thatCongress procured (i.e., authorized and appropriated procurement funding for) in FY2020.Excluding this ship, the Navy's original FY2021 budget submission requests the procurementof seven new ships rather than eight. In late November 2020, the Trump Administrationreportedly decided to request the procurement of a second Virginia-class attack submarinein FY2021. CRS as of December 10, 2020, had not received any documentation from theAdministration detailing the exact changes to the Virginia-class program funding linesthat would result from this reported change. Pending the delivery of that information fromthe administration, this CRS report continues to use the Navy's original FY2021 budgetsubmission in its tables and narrative discussions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Engrossing and illuminating.” —Arthur Herman, Wall Street Journal When Ronald Reagan took office in January 1981, the United States and NATO were losing the Cold War. The USSR had superiority in conventional weapons and manpower in Europe, and it had embarked on a massive program to gain naval preeminence. But Reagan already had a plan to end the Cold War without armed conflict. In this landmark narrative, former navy secretary John Lehman reveals the untold story of the naval operations that played a major role in winning the Cold War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to threats posed by the former Soviet Union, the Reagan Administration advocated building a 600-ship navy. But the Navy never achieved that level. In fact, the fleet never exceeded 570 ships. As the Soviet threat declined, the Bush Administration proposed a fleet of 450 ships, including 13 aircraft carriers (12 active and one for training). The Clinton Administration has proposed reducing the fleet to about 330 ships by 1999, including 12 aircraft carriers (11 active and one in reserve that can be used for training), 120 to 126 active and reserve surface warships, 45 to 55 attack submarines, about 40 amphibious ships, and 14 ballistic missile submarines. Although the size of the fleet is declining, the Navy is still developing expensive new ships and aircraft that it will begin purchasing in the late 1990s and the next decade. The Navy will develop a new attack submarine, to be purchased in fairly low numbers beginning around the turn of the century, and a new surface combat ship (SC-21), which would be procured in moderate quantities starting in the middle of the next decade. During the next decade, to maintain an aircraft carrier force of 12 ships, the Navy will purchase a new carrier every four years, beginning in 2002. The Navy and Marine Corps will modernize their aircraft fleet, buying the F/A-18E/F and V-22 aircraft beginning in the late 1990s and a medium-attack aircraft emanating from the Joint Attack Strike Technology (JAST) program late in the next decade. These expensive new weapons will have to be financed out of budgets that will probably be considerably smaller than those of the 1980s. Will sufficient funds be available to pay for the new weapons and adequately support smaller, but still substantial, naval forces?
