The goals set by Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti in her new fleet-wide guidance may be tough, but they are realistic, the head of the Navy said. “Today I released my Navigation Plan for America’s Warfighting Navy. “This is my strategic guidance to the fleet and focuses on two strategic ends: 1) Readiness for the possibility of war with the Peoples Republic of China by 2027, and 2) Enhancing long-term advantage. We pursue these ends through two mutually reinforcing ways: 1) Implement Project 33 and 2) Expand Navy’s contribution to the Joint warfighting ecosystem. Together we will ensure the US Navy remains the world’s premier fighting force.“ See https://lnkd.in/gQEsPZfm

Serco MEO (formerly JJMA) -I bid (Next Generation Logistics Ship) NGLS with Philly Yard builder of NSMV - this is just what mission discription this article points to, a common hull logistics ship. It was a multiple award phase 1 concept study 2 years ago- I was floored Philly/Serco didn’t get an award not even for a concept!!!- Austal got an award, TAI got an award, I don’t recall the 3rd a- so yes there is a program and contract for this sort of thing, and a builder delivering on it a potential hull- for some reason there was no appitite for what the article proposes or at least there wasn’t 2 years ago in the program which is looking to acquire just this. I will say 300M is a healthy price point for a craft of this size, and the ships were ordered as a block which helps

When it comes to the debate of which is harder, Navy SEALs or Special Forces, the answer isn't so clear-cut. Both elite units undergo rigorous training and excel in different skill sets. Navy SEALs are known for their maritime operations and have a reputation for being the most highly trained special operations force in the world. They are designed for missions such as direct action, special reconnaissance, and unconventional warfare. On the other hand, Special Forces, also known as Green Berets, are experts in unconventional warfare and foreign internal defense. They work closely with indigenous forces to achieve their objectives. While Navy SEALs are suited for high-risk combat missions, Special Forces are trained to work in a variety of environments and cultures to achieve long-term strategic goals. In conclusion, both Navy SEALs and Special Forces have unique skill sets and missions they are suited for. The difficulty of each unit depends on the individual's strengths and the task at hand. #NavySEALs #SpecialForces #EliteForces #MilitaryOps #usarmy #usnavy #irregularwarefare #military #intelligence #pentagon https://lnkd.in/eQdW9BUk
