Abstract

In January 1992, the President proposed rescinding appropriated funds and canceling planned spending for all SSN-8 1 class submarines except the first submarine-the SSN-8 1 .2 Subsequently, Congress debated the merits of building one, two, or three SSN-21 class submarines. The debate focused on L(1) termination versus completion costs for SSN-2 1 class submarine construction, nuclear reactor, combat control system, and other contracts and (2) the effects on the nuclear submarine shipbuilding industrial base.
