Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES


Navy Should Reconsider Plans

To Acquire New Fleet Oilers

And Ocean Tugs


Congressman Paul N. McCloskey, Jr., asked
GAO to determine whether, and to what ex-
tent, merchant vessels could perform the
functions of ocean tugs and fleet oilers, and if
this would be cost effective. GAO expanded
its review to evaluate the criteria used by the
Navy to develop peacetime and wartime re-
quirements for the new fleet oilers and ocean
tugs.

Millions of dollars could possibly be saved ;r
the Navy reconsiders its program to replace its
fleet oilers and ocean tugs with modern mil-
itary vessels, reexamines mission requirements
of the proposed ships, and looks more to the
merchant marine and other alternatives for
logistic support.
