The budget request includes USD 65.8 billion in shipbuilding funding for 18 battle force ships and 16 non-battle force ships, compared to about USD 47.3 billion enacted for FY 2026, according to OMB and USN budget sources.

Under the base budget amount requested, the USN sought to procure 19 battle force ships in FY 2026, including three ships in the base: one Columbia-class strategic submarine (SSBN); one Virginia-class attack submarine (SSN); and one ocean surveillance T-AGOS ship. There were 16 ships included in the requested reconciliation funding: two Arleigh Burke-class DDG 51 guided-missile destroyers, one Virginia-class SSN, one amphibious assault ship (LHA), nine Landing Ships Medium (LSMs), one landing platform dock ship (LPD) and two T-AO replenishment oilers.
The FY 2027 request seeks to “maintain or increase the procurement of existing battle force platforms, including amphibious vessels, and Columbia-class and Virginia-class submarines,” while including proposed funding for “strategic sealift vessels, hospital vessels, Consolidated Cargo Replenishment at Sea tankers, a special mission ship, submarine tenders and other vessels vital for logistics”.
