Download or read book Alternative Future Fleet Platform Architecture Study written by United States. Navy Project Team and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Navy Project Team postulated that the U.S. will continue to provide strong and sustained leadership for a rules-based international order that promotes global security and prosperity through the 2030s. To support this leadership role, the Navy Project Team identified the key missions for the U.S. Navy: protecting the homeland ; building security globally ; establishing sea control ; projecting power ; winning decisively. To accomplish these missions, the Navy Project Team derived a 'Distributed Fleet' architecture designed to provide strong and sustained forward presence to influence and shape geopolitical events, respond to crises, reassure allies and partners, and deter potential aggressors. The Distributed Fleet was further conceived to deliver decisive combat power, as part of a joint force, to defeat U.S. adversaries if deterrence failed.

Book excerpt: The Congress directed the Secretary of Defense to provide two studies on the future fleet architectures by January 2005. One study was to be conducted by one of the Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDCs), and the other by the Office of Force Transformation (OFT) within the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD). The two studies were to be conducted independently and to be cognizant of projected and programmed naval platforms, but not to be constrained by them. The Center for Naval Analyses (CNA) was selected to conduct the FFRDC study. To assist in the OFT study, the sponsor requested several organizations, including the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA), to provide inputs. After receiving and deliberating on these inputs, the OFT produced a report in January 2005 for the Congress. This IDA document, written as a stand-alone report, served as one input to the OFT report. Some of the OFT report findings are drawn from analyses described in this document. Nonetheless, the results found here represent the views of IDA and not necessarily those of the OFT.

Book Synopsis Flexibility in Early Stage Design of US Navy Ships by : Jonathan Edward Page
Download or read book Flexibility in Early Stage Design of US Navy Ships written by Jonathan Edward Page and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis explores design options for naval vessels and provides a framework for analyzing their benefit to the Navy. Future demands on Navy warships, such as new or changing missions and capabilities, are unknowns at the time of the ship's design. Therefore, ships often require costly engineering changes throughout their service life. These are expensive both fiscally - because the Navy pays for engineering and installation work - and operationally - because either a warship cannot carry out a desired mission need or is carrying out a mission for which it was not initially designed. One method of addressing uncertainty in capital assets is by imbedding flexibilities in their architecture. The thesis offers early stage design suggestions on flexibilities for naval platforms to incorporate pre-planned repeats of the platform with new or different missions. A conceptual platform created - the SCAMP - includes each of these suggestions in its architecture. Then, the thesis uses an analysis framework similar to real options to evaluate the value of including these expansion options in early stage design versus traditional design methods and their products. The analysis uses a version of the MIT Cost Model for early stage ship design to determine acquisition and life cycle costs. The model was modified to support this analysis by allowing a simulation of possible mission changes with their severity distributed stochastically over a realistic time horizon. Subsequently, the model calculates these effects on life cycle cost. The most important result is the value of the framework for evaluating these managerial options. This framework can be extended to the subsystem level or to the system-of-systems level. In this application, the model predicts that, on average, a flexible platform should not only cost less to build, but also reduce modernization costs by 9% per ship over its life cycle. Therefore, counterintuitively, building a less-capable ship with the flexibility to expand capabilities or switch missions actually provides greater expected utility during its service life.

Book Synopsis MODEL-Based Methodology for System of Systems Architecture Development with Application to the Recapitalization of the Future Towing and Salvage Platform by :
Download or read book MODEL-Based Methodology for System of Systems Architecture Development with Application to the Recapitalization of the Future Towing and Salvage Platform written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Navy owns four salvage ships and four towing ships that will reach the end of their 40-year life expectancy in 2019. The program manager for these vessels has a set of desirable performance requirements for a new ship class, T-ARS(X), which combines the capabilities from both the salvage and towing ship classes. The need to develop a recapitalization strategy based on either designing a new ship class based on these desirable requirements or purchasing commercial capabilities based on the salvage and towing community's needs is paramount. Meanwhile, the Department of Defense (DoD) has shifted defense planning from the specific service requirements generating system (RGS) acquisition to the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System (JCIDS) approach that focuses on requirements generation based on customer need. This thesis explores how to use systems architecting principles in the context of model-based systems engineering (MBSE) to incorporate the capabilities needed for towing and salvage recapitalization into a cohesive framework for developing the T-ARS(X) requirement specification. The CORE design tool is used to implement the MBSE architecting process using the Naval Architecture Elements Reference Guide (NAERG) and standardized operational tasks to create DODAF v1.5 products from system models. The requirements generated from the architecture model are compared with the current, combined towing and salvage-capable commercial platforms for analysis. Based on the methodology presented, the towing and salvage community now has the basis to perform a capabilities-based analysis of alternatives (AoA) for the T-ARS(X) recapitalization.

Book Synopsis The U.S. Navy and the Rise of Great Power Competition by : James J. Wirtz
Download or read book The U.S. Navy and the Rise of Great Power Competition written by James J. Wirtz and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes how technological and geo-political trends are rapidly transforming maritime affairs. A mix of original and previously published material, this volume describes how the 21st-century great power competition is changing the face of naval operations in general, and U.S. Navy operations in the Western Pacific in particular. The rise of an assertive China and its new anti-access and area-denial capabilities threaten the aircraft carrier-based maritime dominance of the U.S. Navy. Military and political trends in the Western Pacific and beyond suggest that the world is encountering a pivotal moment when existing weapons, tactics, and operations might be rendered obsolete by techno-strategic change. This volume considers these developments from three perspectives by describing: (1) the techno-strategic setting; (2) the institutional constraints that impede the ability of the U.S. Navy to respond to these changes; and (3) a new approach to naval force planning and strategy to cope with these developments. The volume culminates in a discussion of sophisticated strategies and operational concepts that position the U.S. Navy and its maritime allies and partners to prevail in today’s techno-strategic churn. This book will be of much interest to students of naval policy, strategic studies, Asia-Pacific politics, and International Relations.
Book Synopsis Security Studies in a New Era of Maritime Competition by : Jonathan D. Caverley
Download or read book Security Studies in a New Era of Maritime Competition written by Jonathan D. Caverley and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do two conventionally powerful, nuclear armed, but commercially oriented great powers, reliant on sea lanes and global maritime infrastructure, engage in a long-term strategic rivalry? When do such competitions lead to crisis instability and even war? This book presents a research agenda using a variety of methods to explore this unique competitive environment for China and the United States. The most likely great power friction points today are located at sea. Any shots fired between China and the United States will likely be between navies and air forces rather than armies. While much security studies understandably concentrates on land forces, basic concepts such as the importance of territory, the offense-defense balance, technological competition, economic warfare, and crisis stability do not comfortably apply to maritime competition. The chapters in this volume consider the use of naval power - including blockades, naval diplomacy, fleet engagements, and nuclear escalation - across the spectrum of global politics and international conflict. The volume encourages applying the many classic approaches of security studies to this high-stakes relationship while considering maritime conflict as distinct from other forms, such as land and nuclear, that have traditionally occupied the field. This work will be of great interest to students of strategic studies, international relations, maritime security, and Asian-American politics. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Security Studies.
