  • Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress
    Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress September 17, 2020 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32665 Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress Summary In December 2016, the Navy released a force-structure goal that calls for achieving and maintaining a fleet of 355 ships of certain types and numbers. The 355-ship goal was made U.S. policy by Section 1025 of the FY2018 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 2810/P.L. 115- 91 of December 12, 2017). The Trump Administration has identified the achievement of a Navy of 355 or more ships within 10 years as a high priority. The Navy states that it is working as well as it can, within a Navy budget top line that is essentially flat in real (i.e., inflation-adjusted terms), toward achieving that goal while also adequately funding other Navy priorities, such as restoring eroded ship readiness and improving fleet lethality. Navy officials state that while the 355-ship goal is a priority, they want to avoid creating a so-called hollow force, meaning a Navy that has an adequate number of ships but is unable to properly crew, arm, operate, and maintain those ships. The Navy states that its proposed FY2021 budget requests the procurement of eight new ships, but this figure includes LPD-31, an LPD-17 Flight II amphibious ship that Congress procured (i.e., authorized and appropriated procurement funding for) in FY2020. Excluding this ship, the Navy’s proposed FY2021 budget requests the procurement of seven new ships rather than eight.

    UNCLASSIFIED The Application of Work Domain Analysis to Defining Australia’s Air Combat Capability Alanna Treadwell and Neelam Naikar Joint and Operations Analysis Division Defence Science and Technology Organisation DSTO-TR-2958 ABSTRACT The Royal Australian Air Force’s Air Combat Capability is currently undergoing a significant restructure as new, advanced platforms are introduced to the fleet. To avoid a loss of capability in the air domain, the Royal Australian Air Force must determine how best to employ its current and future fighter jets to meet operational goals. To support this objective, this report presents a comprehensive work domain analysis—or structural description—of Australia’s Air Combat Capability, defined across multiple levels of abstraction and decomposition, and independent of specific platforms. This analysis has already demonstrated its usefulness in contributing to the development of an Australian air power doctrine and strategy narrative, represented in the next edition of the Royal Australian Air Force’s Air Power Manual (AAP 1000-D). Future applications of this model could contribute to capability requirements definition; air combat force structure development and organisational redesign; air combat specific crewing concepts, training programs, and Concept of Operations; and the continued development of military doctrine and strategy.

  • Call the Hands
    CALL THE HANDS Issue No.22 Aug 2018 From the President Welcome to this August 2018 edition of Call the Hands and accompanying Occasional Papers. I trust you will find them interesting. The occasional paper on HMAS Voyager (I) paint schemes is interesting as this subject is not regularly addressed by naval historians. The paper highlights the significant effort expended on the science of camouflage during World War 2. For those with a deeper interest in paint, the additional reading on Royal Navy paint schemes during WW2 demonstrates the passion of ships modelers and others researching a subject for which few primary sources remain. I am most grateful for readers’ feedback, particularly when they have been personally involved in an event. The short article in July on the RAN Helicopter Flight in Vietnam was an example, as was the 1955 date HMA Ships Arunta and Warramunga were dispatched to Singapore on the first permanent deployment of naval forces in South-East Asia. The latter also highlights the Society’s` need for more volunteers to maintain contemporary records. History is being created on a daily basis. We are fortunate to have several volunteers assisting from afar over the internet but we have a current need for new volunteers in our Garden Island office to maintain regular services. To this end we would be pleased to hear from Sydney based readers with time to give (one or two days a week or fortnight). We are flexible. There is a range of important roles to interest you. You don’t need to be a historian, just motivated to join a great team.

  • Navy Ship Names: Background for Congress
    Navy Ship Names: Background for Congress Updated September 14, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RS22478 Navy Ship Names: Background for Congress Summary Names for Navy ships traditionally have been chosen and announced by the Secretary of the Navy, under the direction of the President and in accordance with rules prescribed by Congress. Rules for giving certain types of names to certain types of Navy ships have evolved over time. There have been exceptions to the Navy’s ship-naming rules, particularly for the purpose of naming a ship for a person when the rule for that type of ship would have called for it to be named for something else. Some observers have perceived a breakdown in, or corruption of, the rules for naming Navy ships. Section 370 of the FY2021 NDAA (H.R. 6395/P.L. 116-283 of January 1, 2021) establishes a commission regarding the removal and renaming of certain assets of the Department of Defense (including ships) that commemorate the Confederate States of America or any person who served voluntarily with the Confederate States of America. For ship types now being procured for the Navy, or recently procured for the Navy, naming rules can be summarized as follows: The first and second SSBN-826 class ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs) have been named Columbia (in honor of the District of Columbia) and Wisconsin. The Navy has not stated the naming rule for this class of ships. Until recently, Virginia (SSN-774) class attack submarines have generally been named for states, but the four most recently named Virginia-class boats have instead been named in honor of earlier U.S.
