Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The FY2006-FY2011 Future Years Defense Plan (FYDP) reduces planned DD(X) destroyer procurement to one ship per year in FY2007-FY2011 and accelerates procurement of the first CG(X) cruiser to FY2011. The Navy estimates that the first and second DD(X)s would cost more than $3 billion each to procure, including detailed design and nonrecurring engineering costs, and that subsequent DD(X)s would cost $2.2 billion to $2.6 billion each to procure. These estimates are substantially higher than last year's figures. The FY2006 budget requests $666 million in advanced procurement funding for the first DD(X), which is planned for procurement in FY2007, $50 million in advance procurement funding for the second DD(X) planned, which is planned for procurement in FY2008, and $1,115 million for DD(X)/CG(X) research and development. The Navy is considering holding a one-time, winner-take-all competition between Northrop Grumman's Ship System Division (NGSS) and General Dynamics' Bath Iron Works (GD/BIW) for the right to build all DD(X)s. Several Members of Congress have expressed opposition to this idea. The Emergency Supplemental Appropriations Act for 2005 (H.R. 1268) as reported in the Senate contains a provision (Sec. 1119) that effectively prohibits the Navy from using a winner-take all strategy for the DD(X) program. The DD(X) and CG(X) programs pose several potential issues for Congress. For a longer discussion of the DD(X) and CG(X) programs, see CRS Report RL32l09. This report will be updated as events warrant.

Book excerpt: This book examines the burning issues facing today's Navy and Congress. Although rapid progress in aircraft and bombing technology has caused some to question the viability of naval warfare, the role of the navy has actually grown. The Navy is able to move an astonishing amount of firepower to any corner of the globe and once there, project formidable threats or punishing misery on an opposing power. The navy has shown that it can adapt to a new world. The book also includes an important history of the US Navy.

This book was released on 2018-07-19 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents background information and potential oversight issues for Congress on the Navy's Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) and Zumwalt (DDG-1000) class destroyer programs. The Navy procured DDG-51s from FY1985 through FY2005, and resumed procuring them in FY2010. The three DDG-51s requested for procurement in FY2019 are to be the 80th, 81st, and 82nd ships in the class. The Navy procured three DDG-1000s in FY2007-FY2009 and plans no further procurement of DDG-1000s. The 13 DDG-51s planned for procurement in FY2018-FY2022 are to be procured under a multiyear procurement (MYP) contract that Congress approved as part of its action on the Navy's FY2018 budget. DDG-51s procured in FY2017 and subsequent years are being built to a new design (the Flight III DDG-51 design), which incorporates a new and more capable radar called the Air and Missile Defense Radar (AMDR) or SPY-6 radar. The Navy estimates the combined procurement cost of the three DDG-51s requested for procurement in FY2019 at $5,292.7 million, or an average of $1,764.2 million each. The ships are to receive $39.4 million in prior-year (FY2018) Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) advance procurement (AP) funding (i.e., funding for up-front batch orders of components of DDG-51s to be procured under the FY2018-FY2022 MYP contract). The Navy's proposed FY2019 budget requests the following: the remaining $5,253.3 million in procurement funding needed to complete the estimated procurement cost for the three DDG-51s requested for FY2019; $391.9 million in additional EOQ AP funding for DDG-51s to be procured under the FY2018-FY2022 MYP contract; $54.0 million in cost-to-complete procurement funding to cover cost increases on DDG-51s procured in prior fiscal years; and $271.0 million in procurement funding to cover cost increases on Zumwalt (DDG-1000) class destroyers. Issues for Congress for FY2019 for the DDG-51 and DDG-1000 destroyer programs include the following: whether to approve, reject, or modify the Navy's FY2019 funding requests for the DDG-51 and DDG-1000 programs; whether to provide funding for the procurement of an additional DDG-51 (for a total procurement of four DDG-51s rather than three) in FY2019; continued cost growth in the DDG-1000 program; the Navy's intended shift in mission orientation for the DDG-1000s; cost, schedule, and technical risk in the Flight III DDG-51 effort; and the lack of an announced Navy roadmap for accomplishing three things in the cruiser-destroyer force: restoring ship growth margins; introducing large numbers of ships with integrated electric drive systems or other technologies that could provide ample electrical power for supporting future electrically powered weapons; and introducing technologies for substantially reducing ship operating and support (O&S) costs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy in FY2006 and future years wants to procure three new classes of surface combatants -- a destroyer called the DD(X), a cruiser called the CG(X), and a smaller surface combatant called the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS). Congress in FY2005 funded the procurement of the first LCS and provided advance procurement funding for the first DD(X), which the Navy wants to procure in FY2007. The FY2006-FY2011 Future Years Defense Plan (FYDP) reduces planned DD(X) procurement to one per year in FY2007-FY2011 and accelerates procurement of the first CG(X) to FY2011. The FY2006 budget requests $716 million in advance procurement funding for the DD(X) program -- $666 million for the first DD(X), which is planned for procurement in FY2007, and $50 million for the second DD(X), which is planned for procurement in FY2008 -- and $1,115 million for DD(X)/CG(X) research and development. The budget requests $613.3 million for the LCS program, including $576.5 million in research and development funding -- $240.5 million to build the second LCS, and $336.0 million in additional research and development funding -- and $36.8 million in procurement funding for LCS mission modules. On April 20, 2005, Department of Defense (DOD) deferred as "premature" a Navy ...
