  • USN Ship Designations
    USN Ship Designations By Guy Derdall and Tony DiGiulian Updated 17 September 2010 Nomenclature History Warships in the United States Navy were first designated and numbered in system originating in 1895. Under this system, ships were designated as "Battleship X", "Cruiser X", "Destroyer X", "Torpedo Boat X" and so forth where X was the series hull number as authorized by the US Congress. These designations were usually abbreviated as "B-1", "C-1", "D-1", "TB-1," etc. This system became cumbersome by 1920, as many new ship types had been developed during World War I that needed new categories assigned, especially in the Auxiliary ship area. On 17 July 1920, Acting Secretary of the Navy Robert E. Coontz approved a standardized system of alpha-numeric symbols to identify ship types such that all ships were now designated with a two letter code and a hull number, with the first letter being the ship type and the second letter being the sub-type. For example, the destroyer tender USS Melville, first commissioned as "Destroyer Tender No. 2" in 1915, was now re-designated as "AD-2" with the "A" standing for Auxiliary, the "D" for Destroyer (Tender) and the "2" meaning the second ship in that series. Ship types that did not have a subclassification simply repeated the first letter. So, Battleships became "BB-X" and Destroyers became "DD-X" with X being the same number as previously assigned. Ships that changed classifications were given new hull numbers within their new designation series. The designation "USS" standing for "United States Ship" was adopted in 1907.

  • Navy Nuclear-Powered Surface Ships: Background, Issues, and Options for Congress
    Order Code RL33946 Navy Nuclear-Powered Surface Ships: Background, Issues, and Options for Congress Updated June 13, 2007 Ronald O’Rourke Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Navy Nuclear-Powered Surface Ships: Background, Issues, and Options for Congress Summary Some Members of Congress, particularly on the House Armed Services Committee, have expressed interest in expanding the use of nuclear power to a wider array of Navy surface ships, especially the Navy’s planned CG(X) cruiser. The Navy wants to procure the first CG(X) in FY2011, and is currently studying design options for the ship, including the use of nuclear power. A 2006 Navy study concluded the following, among other things: ! In constant FY2007 dollars, building a Navy surface combatant or amphibious ship with nuclear power rather than conventional power would add roughly $600 million to $800 million to its procurement cost. ! The total life-cycle cost of a nuclear-powered medium-size surface combatant would equal that of a conventionally powered medium- size surface combatant if the cost of crude oil averages $70 per barrel to $225 per barrel over the life of the ship. ! Nuclear-power should be considered for near-term applications for medium-size surface combatants. ! Compared to conventionally powered ships, nuclear-powered ships have advantages in terms of both time needed to surge to a distant theater of operation for a contingency, and in terms of operational presence (time on station) in the theater of operation. In assessing whether the CG(X) or other future Navy surface ships should be nuclear-powered, Congress may consider a number of issues, including cost, operational effectiveness, ship construction, ship maintenance and repair, crew training, ports calls and forward homeporting, and environmental impact.

  • Navy Ship Propulsion Technologies: Options for Reducing Oil Use — Background for Congress
    Order Code RL33360 Navy Ship Propulsion Technologies: Options for Reducing Oil Use — Background for Congress Updated December 11, 2006 Ronald O’Rourke Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Navy Ship Propulsion Technologies: Options for Reducing Oil Use — Background for Congress Summary General strategies for reducing the Navy’s dependence on oil for its ships include reducing energy use on Navy ships; shifting to alternative hydrocarbon fuels; shifting to more reliance on nuclear propulsion; and using sail and solar power. Reducing energy use on Navy ships. A 2001 study concluded that fitting a Navy cruiser with more energy-efficient electrical equipment could reduce the ship’s fuel use by 10% to 25%. The Navy has installed fuel-saving bulbous bows and stern flaps on many of its ships. Ship fuel use could be reduced by shifting to advanced turbine designs such as an intercooled recuperated (ICR) turbine. Shifting to integrated electric-drive propulsion can reduce a ship’s fuel use by 10% to 25%; some Navy ships are to use integrated electric drive. Fuel cell technology, if successfully developed, could reduce Navy ship fuel use substantially. Alternative hydrocarbon fuels. Potential alternative hydrocarbon fuels for Navy ships include biodiesel and liquid hydrocarbon fuels made from coal using the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) process. A 2005 Naval Research Advisory Committee (NRAC) study and a 2006 Air Force Scientific Advisory Board both discussed FT fuels. Nuclear propulsion. Oil-fueled ship types that might be shifted to nuclear propulsion include large-deck amphibious assault ships and large surface combatants (i.e., cruisers and destroyers).

  • Not for Publication Until Released by House Armed Services Committee
    NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNTIL RELEASED BY HOUSE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE STATEMENT OF RONALD O’ROURKE SPECIALIST IN NATIONAL DEFENSE CONGRESSIONAL RESEARCH SERVICE BEFORE THE HOUSE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE SUBCOMMITTEE ON PROJECTION FORCES HEARING ON DD(X) DESTROYER PROGRAM JULY 19, 2005 NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNTIL RELEASED BY HOUSE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE Mr. Chairman, Representative Taylor, distinguished members of the subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you to discuss oversight issues relating to the Navy’s DD(X) destroyer program. As requested, my testimony will focus on the following: ! the prospective affordability and cost effectiveness of the DD(X) program (pages 1-6); ! the requirement for the DD(X) program (pages 7-12); ! industrial-base considerations (pages 12-15); and 1 ! potential cost-reduction alternatives (pages 15-19). Affordability and Cost Effectiveness A key issue — perhaps the most important current issue — for the DD(X) program is the procurement affordability of the DD(X) design. Currently estimated DD(X) unit procurement costs could limit the program’s long-term annual procurement rate, which could raise questions about the program’s overall cost effectiveness. The Navy’s estimated unit procurement costs for follow-on DD(X)s are about 45% higher today than they were a year ago.2 The Cost Analysis Improvement Group (CAIG) within the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) reportedly believes that DD(X) procurement costs may be 20% to 33% higher than the Navy’s new estimates. A meeting scheduled for April 29, 2005, to grant the DD(X) Milestone B approval to proceed was postponed, reportedly because of disagreement between the Navy and CAIG over estimated DD(X) procurement costs.

There has been a Ctontinuing debate over the relative merits of conventional and nuclear power for O.S. warsbips. Findings/Conc'usions: most military experts agree that submarines and large aircraft carriers should havs nuclear propulsion. Presently the controversy centers over the desirability of nuclear power for cruisers, frigates, and destroyers that accospany the carriers. Nuclear Ihips are more capable but cost more, and their relative cost-erfectiveness cannot be measured because Navy analysts zanact quantify many benefits of nuclear power. In addition, available data on construction and operating costs do not lend themselves to precise comparisons. The Department of Defense estimates that constructioa of only nuclear-powered ships could result in aiout 25 to 35 fewer cruisers, trigates, or destrcyers than if the same amount of money were to be spent on comparable conventionally powered

  • Marine Nuclear Power 1939 – 2018 Part 2B USA Surface Ships
    Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018 Part 2B: United States - Surface Ships Peter Lobner July 2018 1 Foreword In 2015, I compiled the first edition of this resource document to support a presentation I made in August 2015 to The Lyncean Group of San Diego (www.lynceans.org) commemorating the 60th anniversary of the world’s first “underway on nuclear power” by USS Nautilus on 17 January 1955. That presentation to the Lyncean Group, “60 years of Marine Nuclear Power: 1955 – 2015,” was my attempt to tell a complex story, starting from the early origins of the US Navy’s interest in marine nuclear propulsion in 1939, resetting the clock on 17 January 1955 with USS Nautilus’ historic first voyage, and then tracing the development and exploitation of marine nuclear power over the next 60 years in a remarkable variety of military and civilian vessels created by eight nations. In July 2018, I finished a complete update of the resource document and changed the title to, “Marine Nuclear Power: 1939 – 2018.” What you have here is Part 2B: United States - Surface Ships. The other parts are: Part 1: Introduction Part 2A: United States – Submarines Part 3A: Russia - Submarines Part 3B: Russia - Surface Ships & Non-propulsion Marine Nuclear Applications Part 4: Europe & Canada Part 5: China, India, Japan and Other Nations Part 6: Arctic Operations 2 Foreword This resource document was compiled from unclassified, open sources in the public domain. I acknowledge the great amount of work done by others who have published material in print or posted information on the internet pertaining to international marine nuclear propulsion programs, naval and civilian nuclear powered vessels, naval weapons systems, and other marine nuclear applications.
