  • Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress
    Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress September 16, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32665 Navy Force Structure and Shipbuilding Plans: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The current and planned size and composition of the Navy, the annual rate of Navy ship procurement, the prospective affordability of the Navy’s shipbuilding plans, and the capacity of the U.S. shipbuilding industry to execute the Navy’s shipbuilding plans have been oversight matters for the congressional defense committees for many years. 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 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 a smaller proportion of larger ships, a larger proportion of smaller ships, and a new third tier of large unmanned vehicles (UVs). On June 17, 2021, the Navy released a long-range Navy shipbuilding document that presents the Biden Administration’s emerging successor to the 355-ship force-level goal. The document calls for a Navy with a more distributed fleet architecture, including 321 to 372 manned ships and 77 to 140 large UVs. A September 2021 Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report estimates that the fleet envisioned in the document would cost an average of between $25.3 billion and $32.7 billion per year in constant FY2021 dollars to procure.

  • Running Toward Gunfire: Marines, British Forces Repel Insurgents Attacking Camp Bastion Story by Sgt
    NEWS Running toward gunfire: Marines, British forces repel insurgents attacking Camp Bastion Story by Sgt. John Jackson CAMP BASTION, Afghanistan – Sergeant Rasheem Thomas never thought his first night working on Camp Bastion would turn into a gun battle with 15 insurgents. When Thomas was told he was transferring from 1st Platoon to 2nd Platoon, the landing support specialist with Combat Logistics Battalion 2, Combat Logistics Regiment 15, thought nothing of it. Instead of working on Camp Leatherneck, Thomas would be working at the rotary wing Arrival Departure Airfield Control Group on Camp Bastion, an adjoining base ran by British Armed Forces. He would be responsible for getting coalition forces and cargo on helicopters departing Camp Bastion’s airfield heading for remote forward operating bases throughout Regional Command Southwest’s area of operations. Thomas’ first night on Camp Bastion was Friday, Sept. 14. He and a fellow sergeant were driving through a checkpoint close to the airfield when they heard an explosion. (Read the STORY) Always remembered, never forgotten: Marines honor fallen brothers Story and photos by Cpl. Mark Garcia CAMP BASTION, Afghanistan – Hundreds of Marines gathered to honor the lives of two fallen comrades killed during the attack on Camp Bastion, Sept. 14. During the two separate memorial ceremonies, which were held Sept. 19 and 20, Marines paid tribute to Lt. Col. Christopher Raible and Sgt. Bradley Atwell. Both were killed in action while engaging the enemy. Raible was the commanding officer of Marine Attack Squadron 211, from Huntingdon, Pa., and Atwell was an aircraft electrical, instrument and flight control systems technician with Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 16, from Kokomo, Ind.

  • Marine Wing Support Squadron 272
    LTCOL TERRENCE O’CONNELL SGTMAJ WILLIAM McCoy MARINE WING SUPPORT SQUADRON 272 Marine Wing Support Squadron 272 was activated on June 6, 1986 at Marine Corps Air Station New River, North Carolina. MWSS- 272 was organized from the assets of Marine Air Base Squadron 26, Marine Air Base Squadron 29 and Detachment “A”, Marine Wing Support Group 27, which were deactivated on 5 June 1986. Since 1992 MWSS-272 has provided essential engineer services to 2D Marine Aircraft Wing (MAW) by conducting horizontal and vertical construction, providing bulk fuel services, significant utility support, and Motor Heavy Equipment (MHE) support. The engi- neers of MWSS-272 also specialize in K-Span construction with the ABM and UBM, Rapid Runway Repair (RRR), soil stabilization/ dust abatement, Base Recovery After Attack (BRAAT), and Air Base Ground Defense (ABGD). In July 1993, MWSS-272, the Untouchables, spearheaded the total restoration of Landing Zone Bluebird by removing 166, 272 square feet of weathered matting, extensive earth work improvements, soil stabilization, and re-laying of 158, 976 square feet of matting. This project was completed ahead of schedule through exceptional efforts by Combat Engineers and Heavy Equipment operators. In September 1993, the squadron’s engineers extracted an AV-8 Harrier as part of an aircraft recovery mission aboard Camp Lejeune, NC. This fundamental mission is called upon MHE operators in OEF and OIF today. In 1999, MWSS-272 supported a New Horizons Humanitarian Civic Assistance (HCA) exercise in the Chaco region of southeastern Bolivia. MWSS-272 engineers were part of 240 U.S. military engineers who formed “Combined Task Force Chaco” to build schools, expanded a medical clinic, dig wells, improved roads, built a base camp in the town of Boyuibe.

Inouye Ranking Minority Member Subcommittee on Defense Committee on Appropriations United States Senate The Honorable C.W. Bill Young Chairman The Honorable John P. Murtha Ranking Minority Member Subcommittee on National Security Committee on Appropriations House of Representatives The aircraft carrier forms the building block of the Navy’s forward deployed peacetime presence, crisis response, and war-fighting forces. The nuclear-powered carrier is the most expensive weapon system in the Nation’s arsenal and represents a significant portion of the Navy’s shipbuilding and conversion future years defense program. As requested, this report discusses the cost-effectiveness to the Navy of using conventionally and nuclear-powered aircraft carriers. As the Defense Department and the Navy assess design concepts for a new class of carriers, they will evaluate a number of factors, including different propulsion types. This report contains information and analysis that you may find useful in the process of allocating future defense resources.
