Coast Guard Cutter Procurement: Background and Issues for Congress (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781503278394)

The Coast Guard's program of record (POR) calls for procuring 8 National Security Cutters (NSCs), 25 Offshore Patrol Cutters (OPCs), and 58 Fast Response Cutters (FRCs) as replacements for 90 aging Coast Guard cutters and patrol craft. The NSC, OPC, and FRC programs have a combined estimated acquisition cost of about $21.1 billion, and the Coast Guard's proposed FY2014 budget requests a total of $716 million in acquisition funding for the three programs.
