To ensure it can reach a submarine-build rate of one Columbia-class strategic ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) and two Virginia-class attack boats per year, the US Navy (USN) is considering using private shipyards that have not traditionally built such ships to do some of the construction, according to Rear Admiral Scott Pappano, program executive officer, Strategic Submarines.
The USN may have to make some “improvements to drive the one Columbia plus two Virginias per year … through strategic outsourcing”, Rear Adm Pappano said on 12 May during the Advanced Nuclear Weapons Alliance Deterrence Center Virtual Forum on ‘Understanding the Modernisation of the Sea-based Leg of the US Strategic Nuclear Deterrent, USS Columbia-Class Ballistic Missile Submarine (SSBN 826) & the Trident II D-5 Missile'.
That outsourcing would involve moving some of the construction to yards that have not traditionally done naval nuclear submarine work, he said.
