USS Harry S. Truman overhaul contract

Overview

The U.S. Navy has awarded a contract valued at approximately $5.1 billion to HII’s Newport News Shipbuilding for the Refueling and Complex Overhaul (RCOH) of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75).

The carrier arrived at the Virginia shipyard on September 30 to begin the intensive shipyard production phase. The project involves refueling the ship’s two nuclear reactors and performing extensive modernization of its propulsion plant, electrical systems, combat systems, and aircraft launch and recovery equipment. This overhaul is intended to extend the vessel’s service life by approximately 25 years, potentially keeping it operational into the late 2040s. The project is expected to conclude by November 2031.
