Capability

You can bring any job -- no matter the size -- to NNSY because of its location and layout. Situated on the southern branch of the Elizabeth River, NNSY's boundaries encompass approximately 800 acres. The property houses seven dry docks, four miles of waterfront, about 30 miles of paved streets and 19 miles of railroad tracks, its own police and fire departments, electricity and steam generating plant, and about 400 cranes.

NNSY also is ready and able to travel to wherever your job site is located, lessening your 'down time'. The work force is capable of working in the shipyard proper, at area bases, forward sites, at sea and overseas. In addition, selected submarine ship alterations are routinely installed by shipyard "Tiger Teams" at remote sites.

When you learn more about NNSY, you'll understand why this shipyard is an acknowledged industrial leader. And its capabilities are now available for you.
