Navy DDG-1000 and DDG-51 Destroyer Programs: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress


The issue for Congress for FY2009 was how to take the Navy's new position on destroyer procurement into account in marking up the Navy's proposed FY2009 budget. Potential oversight issues for Congress included the timing of the Navy's announcement of its new position, the availability of the Navy's analytical basis for its new position, the changed threat assessment that the Navy says underlies its new position, the Navy's selection of the DDG-51 as the ship best suited for responding to the changed threat assessment, the Navy's description of the DDG-1000's anti-air warfare (AAW) capabilities, and the industrial-base implications of stopping DDG- 1000 procurement and restarting DDG-51 procurement.
