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

The issue for Congress is 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 include 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. Congress has several options regarding destroyer procurement in FY2009 and subsequent years.
