Costs of Building a 355-Ship Navy

Congressional Budget Office

No 52632, Reports from Congressional Budget Office

Abstract: CBO estimates that construction costs to build a fleet of 355 ships would average $26.6 billion (in 2017 dollars) per year over the next 30 years, which is 60 percent more than what the Navy has spent on average over the past 30 years. In addition, operating costs for a larger fleet would increase substantially compared with those of today’s Navy.
