Maritime Prepositioning Force Next

Abstract

The MPF(X) ships will recapitalize the aging BOBO Class maritime prepositioning ships. The 'Sealift the Nation Needs' report to Congress defines a three-phase Sealift Recapitalization approach: Service Life Extensions, Acquiring Used ships, and new construction. The MPF(X) portion represents the prepositioning new construction aspect of the three-phase sealift recapitalization approach. USNS BOBO class ships will retire from service beginning in FY 2033. Approval of an Initial Capabilities Document (ICD), and the early efforts of an Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) are planned beginning in FY2024.
