Research and Development to save Costs on Future Carriers
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Nimitz-class aircraft carriers are very expensive ships to build, own, and operate. The procurement cost for CVN 77 will be more than $5 billion. Each Nimitz-class carrier has an average annual operations and maintenance cost of approximately $240 million, slightly less than half of which is for shipyard availabilities. A little less than a third of the annual cost is for the pay and allowances of the approximately 3,000 enlisted and officer ship’s company personnel assigned to each carrier. Even a small percentage reduction in annual costs can have a major impact on the annual ship construction, Navy (SCN), military personnel, Navy (MPN), and operations and maintenance, Navy (O&MN) budgets.

متن کاملExogenous Polysaccharidases for Young Ruminants: A Review Interfacing Nutrition, Economics, and Health
Neonate ruminants possess little cell-wall and starch degrading enzyme activity. Importantly, early establishment of fibrolytic, amylolytic, and proteolytic capacities is influential for the early expansion of the reticulorumen epithelia. Such an early development in reticulorumen fermentation will enable a timely hepatic adaptation to volatile fatty acids assimilation. The early nutrient relea...
