Navy Ships: Plans and Anticipated Liabilities to Terminate SSN-21 Program Contracts

Abstract

As requested, we reviewed the Navy's plans and anticipated liabilities to terminate the Seawolf class nuclear-powered attack submarine (SSN-21) program contracts. On August 20, 1992, and September 10, 1992, we briefed your offices on the results of our review. This report summarizes and updates the information provided in those briefings. Specifically, this report addresses (1) key cost elements of the administration's rescission proposal and resulting Public Law 102-298: An Act Rescinding Certain Budget Authority, Fiscal Year 1992; (2) Navy actions to carry out Public Law 102-298 and the congressional conferee's guidance; and (3) current submarine shipbuilding industrial base capacity and work load.
