It’s possible the shipyard could end up with construction contracts worth more than $2 billion.
The Pentagon is paying General Dynamics-NASSCO $20.5 million to keep designing a new generation of Navy submarine tender ships, work that could lead to big construction contracts for the San Diego shipyard.
The Navy plans to decommission its two remaining Emory S. Land-class tenders, 649-foot ships that have been servicing submarines for more than 40 years.NASSCO is the largest shipbuilder on the West Coast, and it specializes in the sort of auxiliary ships represented by the new sub tender program. The yard is currently building 742-foot fleet oilers for the Navy. It also recently finished building a 785-foot expeditionary sea base, a Navy vessel that serves as a pier-to-sea that can be used to deploy troops and equipment.
The company also repairs and modernizes warships, builds commercial container and fuel ships and has been seeking contracts to build and equip the installation and support vessels needed to create offshore wind turbine farms.Ka’anapali resort on West Maui makes a comebackPlans for a new Little Italy hotel and wellness center overcome objections from San Diego airportPadres notes: Luis Arraez to sit out All-Star game; Joe Musgrove, Fernando Tatis Jr.
