HII (NYSE:HII) announced today that its Ingalls Shipbuilding
division has been awarded a cost-plus-incentive-fee contract for
engineering and design from the U.S. Navy for the next-generation
guided-missile destroyer (DDG(X)) program.
“We are excited to continue on this path with our Navy and
industry partners,” Ingalls Shipbuilding President Kari Wilkinson
said. “It provides us a tremendous opportunity to bring best
practices and innovation from our experienced engineering team to
the design of this important future surface combatant.”
Ingalls Shipbuilding is a major contractor and shipbuilding
partner in the Arleigh Burke-class (DDG 51) program that has been
in production for three decades. Arleigh Burke-class destroyers are
multi-mission ships that can provide offensive and defensive
capabilities, and can conduct a variety of operations, from
peacetime presence and crisis management to sea control and power
projection, all in support of the United States military
strategy.
DDG(X) will be the next generation large surface combatant for
the U.S. Navy, and is being designed by a Navy-industry
collaborative team consisting of the Navy and both large surface
combatant shipbuilders.
