YOU’VE GOT TO KNOW WHEN TO HOLD ’EM, KNOW WHEN TO FOLD ’EM ...................... 125 GLOSSARY ..................................................................................................................... 129 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This report is an expansion of a Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments Backgrounder entitled Know When to Hold ’Em: Modernizing the Navy’s Surface Battle Line, dated September 20, 2006. It provides a broader, historical-based analysis of the Navy’s current plans to modernize and recapitalize its fleet of guided-missile cruisers, guided-missile destroyers, and general-purpose destroyers, and proposes a different transformation approach than the one now being pursued. I would like to acknowledge some of the many people who helped me in this effort. Several experts from Lockheed Martin either arranged for, or provided me with, briefings about the Aegis anti-air warfare combat system, the Mk-41 Vertical Launch System, Aegis ballistic missile defense capabilities, and Aegis Open Architecture. Among those who helped the most were: Paul Lemmo, Craig Quigley, Robby Harris, Ric Rushton, Bob Richie, Mac Grant, and Geoffrey Moss. I also received quite a bit of help and information from experts from General Dynamics. Karl Hasslinger arranged for me to take a tour of Bath Iron Works, and he accompanied me on the trip. A former member of the Office of Net Assessment, Office of the Secretary of Defense, Karl constantly challenged my assumptions and conclusions, thereby helping me to better frame my arguments. While in Maine, Dugan Shipway, Tom Bowler, Mike Hammes, Bob Sprigg, and Andrew Bond were all gracious hosts, and answered my many questions about the yard, the improvements being made to the yard’s shipbuilding processes, and the DDG Modernization Program (Bath Iron Works is the planning yard for the program). They also mounted a spirited defense of the DDG-1000, the first new 21st century combatant. Dennis Stokowski, from General Dynamics’ Advanced Information Systems, was also instrumental in helping me to understand the technical aspects of open architecture. None of these fine people contributed to the final conclusions of this report, except to the degree that they answered my specific questions about existing or planned programs or capabilities. Indeed, I would guess that few, if any, would agree with my recommendation to stop building the DDG-1000 after two ships and to pursue instead a different transformation pathway for the Navy’s surface battle line. These conclusions were my own, as are any mistakes found in the report. i ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY When hearing the term “ships-of-the-line”—warships that take their place in a navy’s line of battle—most think of old two- or three-deck sailing ships carrying large cannon batteries, or perhaps steam-powered, armored battleships. Since entering the age of jet aircraft, guided missiles, and nuclear-powered submarines, however, the US Navy’s “surface battle line” consists of battle force capable (BFC) surface combatants—large, multi-mission and focused-mission warships designed first to operate as part of a fast Carrier Strike Group. These include guided- missile cruisers (CGs), guided-missile destroyers (DDGs), and general-purpose destroyers (DDs). Battle force capable combatants are separate and distinct from legacy protection of shipping combatants (now known as frigates and guided missile frigates) and newer littoral combat ships, both of which are smaller, and less capable, focused-mission warships.

  • Navy DD(X), CG(X), and LCS Ship Acquisition Programs: Oversight Issues and Options for Congress
    Order Code RL32109 CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Navy DD(X), CG(X), and LCS Ship Acquisition Programs: Oversight Issues and Options for Congress Updated April 21, 2005 Ronald O’Rourke Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Navy DD(X), CG(X), and LCS Ship Acquisition Programs: Oversight Issues and Options for Congress Summary 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 $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), 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 $240.5 million in research and development funding to build the second LCS, $336.0 million in additional research and development funding, and $36.8 million in procurement funding for LCS mission modules.

  • Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Program: Background and Issues for Congress
    Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Program: Background and Issues for Congress Updated September 30, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL33745 SUMMARY RL33745 Navy Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) September 30, 2021 Program: Background and Issues for Congress Ronald O'Rourke The Aegis ballistic missile defense (BMD) program, which is carried out by the Missile Defense Specialist in Naval Affairs Agency (MDA) and the Navy, gives Navy Aegis cruisers and destroyers a capability for conducting BMD operations. BMD-capable Aegis ships operate in European waters to defend Europe from potential ballistic missile attacks from countries such as Iran, and in in the Western Pacific and the Persian Gulf to provide regional defense against potential ballistic missile attacks from countries such as North Korea and Iran. MDA’s FY2022 budget submission states that “by the end of FY 2022 there will be 48 total BMDS [BMD system] capable ships requiring maintenance support.” The Aegis BMD program is funded mostly through MDA’s budget. The Navy’s budget provides additional funding for BMD-related efforts. MDA’s proposed FY2021 budget requested a total of $1,647.9 million (i.e., about $1.6 billion) in procurement and research and development funding for Aegis BMD efforts, including funding for two Aegis Ashore sites in Poland and Romania. MDA’s budget also includes operations and maintenance (O&M) and military construction (MilCon) funding for the Aegis BMD program. Issues for Congress regarding the Aegis BMD program include the following: whether to approve, reject, or modify MDA’s annual procurement and research and development funding requests for the program; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the execution of Aegis BMD program efforts; what role, if any, the Aegis BMD program should play in defending the U.S.
