National Defense Features in Merchant Ships.

Abstract

The report contains analyses of the National Defense Features on five merchant tankers, and proposes engineering modifications needed to facilitate incorporation of new features. The analyses are based on statements of national defense feature requirements proposed by the Naval Ship Research and Development Center to enable the tankers to participate in national defense missions. Also included are the results of a study of the survivability index for the tankers compared to Navy combat and support ships.
