SUPSHIP Bath (SSBA) oversees the design and construction of six ship classes at three private shipyards in Bath, Maine, Marinette, Wis., and San Diego, Calif. SUPSHIP Bath’s product lines include Arleigh Burke Destroyers (DDG 51), Guided Missile Frigates (FFG), Freedom-variant Littoral Combat Ships (LCS), Expeditionary Sea Base (ESB) Ships, John Lewis Fleet Replenishment Oilers (T-AO), and Multi-Mission Surface Combatants (MMSC). Once these ships sail away from their respective building yard, SSBA oversees the post shakedown availabilities in their homeports. Additionally, SSBA supports Fleet planning yard activities executed by Bath Iron Works for the DDG 1000 and DDG 51 ship classes. SUPSHIP Bath is the Naval Supervising Authority for post shakedown availabilities for surface combatants performed outside the build yard.
