Evaluation of the CVN 68/CVN 69 Launching System.

Abstract

This report presents the final evaluation of the Integrated Catapult Control Station and associated catapult equipment for the CVN 68/CVN 69 launching system. Evaluation testing was conducted on the TC13 Mod 1 catapult site. The report delineates the deficiencies and discrepancies found in the CVN 68/CVN 69 launching system. Implementation of the recommended changes to the deficient items would greatly improve operations and increase the reliability and maintainability of the catapults aboard the CVN 68/CVN 69 and later carriers with these innovations incorporated.
