| Opplysninger | The growth of ship costs Historical cost escalation for ships Sources of cost escalation for Navy ships Industry views on ship cost escalation Options for the Navy to reduce ship costs. - Over the past several decades, increases in acquisition costs for U.S. Navy combatants have outpaced the rate of inflation. To understand why, the authors of this book examined two principal source categories of ship cost escalation (economy-driven factors and customer-driven factors) and interviewed various shipbuilders. Based on their analysis, the authors propose some ways the Navy might reduce ship costs in the future.
