Increasing awareness of environmental issues related to product design, development, use and disposal is requiring that designers account for environmental issues that had previously been neglected. In the military, these requirements are being added at the same time budgets are being cut and performance expectations are being increased. A successful design must be able to incorporate a strategy that will satisfy cost, performance, quality, maintenance and legal criteria while also optimizing...

Narrated by Alexander Scourby and directed by Lt. Frank Peele and written by Peele and Robert Sibley, this 1978 U.S. Navy film, "Pride Runs Deep" was produced on behalf of the Chief of Naval Operations. It presents an in-depth look at the life of a submariner, from missile and torpedo exercises, to mess and recreation. It explains in great detail the difference between fast attack submarines and Polaris ballistic missile submarines. The film was formally called SITREP 13, with...

As requested, we reviewed the Navy's plans and anticipated liabilities to terminate the Seawolf class nuclear-powered attack submarine (SSN-21) program contracts. On August 20, 1992, and September 10, 1992, we briefed your offices on the results of our review. This report summarizes and updates the information provided in those briefings. Specifically, this report addresses (1) key cost elements of the administration's rescission proposal and resulting Public Law 102-298: An Act Rescinding...

The lead ship of the Seawolf class (SSN-21) was authorized in the fiscal year 1989 budget, the second (SSN-22) in fiscal year 1991, and the third (SSN-23) in fiscal year 1992. In January 1992, President Bush announced his intent to cancel the Seawolf program and proposed rescinding funding for both the SSN-22 and SSN-23. The Congress, however, voted to retain the SSN-22 while rescinding the fiscal year 1992 funds for the SSN-23. In its place, the Congress provided an additional $540 A million...

The Seawolf submarine design is promoting the employment of a variety of advanced ship design and production techniques. Major goals of the design are to fully support a zone construction program, capture the data base in a digital format, provide digital products for construction and logistics support and to simplify, as much as possible, the construction effort.

The Navy has been procuring Virginia (SSN-774) class nuclear-powered attack submarines since FY1998. The two Virginia-class boats requested for procurement in FY2017 are to be the 25th and 26th boats in the class. The 10 Virginia-class boats programmed for procurement in FY2014-FY2018 (two per year for five years) are being procured under a multiyear-procurement (MYP) contract.

This report examines how nuclear attack submarines (SSNs) best serve the nation's future defense needs. The Terms of Reference directed that emphasis be placed on operational utility of future generations of submarines (beyond the New Attack Submarine (NSSN)) and the impact of the littoral environment on submarine design and operation in the context of joint operations.

This study investigated whether overhaul costs differ in public and private shipyards, using data on overhauls of the Sturgeon class of nuclear attack submarines between 1971 and 1979. We began by estimating a cost function and using the regression coefficients to estimate the production cost of a hypothetical overhaul for each shipyard in each year. For the most part, it was found that estimated naval shipyard costs did not differ significantly from estimated private yard costs. There were,...

Both the defense and commercial industry sectors are increasingly moving to automated manufacturing as a means to reduce costs and increase efficiency and quality. The Navy can leverage both the capabilities as well as the benefits of this technology application. For example, the acquisition of intelligent digital data in support of the new weapon systems has the potential to render a percentage of the Navy and DLA parts inventory as 'virtual'. This inventory would exist in 'effect' but not in...

DoD's 30-year shipbuilding and aviation plans enable the Congress to assess the long-term effects of the incremental decisions that are made each year in the annual authorization and appropriation process. Ships and aircraft take decades to develop and procure, and those ships and aircraft often remain in the inventory for decades more. In the absence of a 30-year plan, the cumulative effects of those annual decisions may not be well understood. For example, during the 1990s, well before the...
