Navy DD(X), CG(X), and LCS Ship Acquisition Programs: Oversight Issues and Options for Congress


The DD(X), CG(X), and LCS programs raise several oversight issues for Congress. Options for Congress for the DD(X) program include approving the program as proposed by the Navy and supplementing the industrial base, if needed, with additional work; accelerating procurement of the lead DD(X) to FY2006 and the second DD(X) to FY2007; deferring procurement of the lead DD(X) to FY2008; procuring two or more DD(X)s per year; building DD(X)s at a single yard, or building each DD(X) jointly at two yards; terminating the DD(X) program now (or after procuring a single ship as a technology demonstrator), and supplementing the industrial base with additional work until the start of CG(X) procurement; and starting design work now on a smaller, less expensive alternative to the DD(X) and procuring this new design, rather than DD(X)s or CG(X)s, starting around FY2011.
