Abstract

With the mishaps related to the McCain and Fitzgerald collisions, the U.S. Navy seeks oversight and modernization of surface fleet bridge configurations. The goal of the Bridge Integration Program is to modernize bridges for functional commonality and improved watch stander performance. In order to identify trends that will improve to bridge commonality, rigorous and methodical data analysis, such as modeling and simulation, will be employed. The results of this analysis will ultimately lead to a reduced number of bridge configurations, allowing Sailors to more easily transition between ship assignments and reducing the cost of maintaining trainers across multiple bridge configurations. The T-AH(X) Hospital ship program will recapitalize aging Role 3 medical services ships. The primary mission of these ships is to provide rapid, flexible, and mobile acute health services support to military personnel deployed ashore and afloat with a secondary mission of providing mobile surgical hospital service and acute medical care for disaster or humanitarian relief. USNS MERCY class ships will retire from service beginning in FY36, after over 60 years of service. Conduct of a Requirements Evaluation Team for development of Top Level Requirements and performance of initial ship feasibility studies is planned.
