An Analysis of the Navy's Fiscal Year 2020 Shipbuilding Plan

Abstract

The Department of Defense (DoD) submitted the Navy's 2020 shipbuilding plan to the Congress in March 2019. The average annual cost of carrying out that plan, which covers fiscal years 2020 to 2049, would be $31.0 billion in 2019 dollars, the Congressional Budget Office estimates. The Navy's 2020 plan differs very little from its 2019 plan in its goal for the total inventory of battle force ships, the number and types of ships that the Navy would purchase, and the funding proposed to implement the plan. If fully carried out, the shipbuilding plan would represent the largest naval buildup since the 1980s.
