Book excerpt: Because of the uncertain and changing nature of the U.S. merchant fleet, the U.S. Navy is making a comprehensive reevaluation of its relationship with the merchant marine. As one aspect of the total reevaluation, the Chief of Naval Research asked the Maritime Transportation Research Board to determine the feasibility of resupplying naval vessels at sea from commercial containerships. A formal proposal to undertake the task was submitted to examine the available and projected technology and operational capability of the merchant containership fleet to perform replenishment at sea operations; The merchant containership fleet's capability to meet the operational requirements for replenishment at sea as established by the U.S. Navy; Special problem areas and operational trials of systems that may be within the state-of-the-art; and Additional capabilities and technology, including systems and hardware design projects, that may be required in the next decade for full utilization of containerships in the replenishment system.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy has been looking at alternatives to building additional support ships. Navy design ships are very capable and very expensive. Commercial design ships could save considerable amounts of money. But the operational differences must be taken into account. The modified commercial ships could be used in two different roles. They could be used for 'wartime augmentation' of existing Navy forces when emergency needs arise. Or the modified commercial ships could be used as full 'peacetime substitutions' for additional Navy support ships. The study concluded that there were deficiencies in the commercial ships which could not be overcome within the guidelines of the study. The modified tanker had less speed and lower transfer times than the Navy AO. The modified containership had severe safety and cargo transfer problems compared with the Navy AE. However, these commercial ships also represented savings of at least 23 percent in 30 year procurement and operating expenses (dollars are discounted at 10 percent over 30 years). The study did not attempt to weigh the deficiencies against the savings.
