This report discusses the Navy's progress in acquiring 19 Large, Medium Speed Roll-On/Roll-Off (LMSR) ships to preposition Army equipment and add to surge sealift capacity. To fulfill its sealift requirements, the Department of Defense (DoD) is converting 5 used commercial containerships and will build 14 ships. Specifically, this report discusses (1) the Navy's efforts to deliver the LMSR conversion and new construction ships on schedule and the impact of any delays on the Army meeting its prepositioning afloat requirements, (2) the capability of the LMSR conversion ships to adequately perform their mission, (3) the level of crewing for the LMSR ships, and (4) increases in LMSR procurement costs.
