CBO constructed five alternative approaches to modernization that would cost roughly the same average amount annually as the Navy has spent in the past six years. The first option would make across-the-board cuts to the fleet to fit within recent spending levels. The other four options would emphasize one of the following: surface combatants, submarines,aircraft carriers,or amphibious warfare and maritime prepositioning ships. Those options illustrate the trade-offs that the Navy might have to make if officials chose to focus their modernization efforts on one aspect of naval warfare at the expense of others.
