      SECNAV Announces Service Life Extensions for 12 Destroyers to “Keep More Ready Players on the Field”

      WASHINGTON – Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro announced on October 31 that the Department of the Navy plans to operate 12 Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) Flight I Destroyers beyond their 35-year expected service life. The decision, based upon a hull-by-hull evaluation of ship material condition, combat capability, technical feasibility and lifecycle maintenance requirements, will result in an additional 48 ship-years of cumulative ship service life in the 2028 to 2035 timeframe. The Navy has proposed DDG service life extension funding in the FY26 budget request, and will update the shipbuilding plan accordingly. “Extending these highly-capable, well-maintained destroyers will further bolster our numbers as new construction warships join the Fleet,” said Secretary Del Toro. “It also speaks to their enduring role in projecting power globally, and most recently in the Red Sea, their proven ability to defend themselves, as well as our allies, partners and friends from missile and drone attacks.” At the Secretary’s request, the Navy conducted a thorough evaluation of each DDG-51 Flight I ship (DDG 51-71) over the past ten months, and determined the 12 destroyers could and should remain operational beyond their expected service life. The final determination of each ship’s service life is based on maximizing the service life of each ship before it required another extensive and costly docking availability. The service life extensions meet the intent of Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti and the CNO’s NAVPLAN which directs the Navy to “get more ready players on the field.” “Today’s budget constrained environment requires the Navy to make prioritized investments to keep more ready players on the field,” said Adm. Franchetti. “The Navy is actively pulling the right levers to maintain and grow its Battle Force Inventory to support the United State’s global interests in peace and to win decisively in conflict.” The Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer is critical to the Navy’s mission and has proven itself most capable in contested environments, like the Red Sea.

      TIERED MULTIPLES FOR NUCLEAR TRAINED SAILORS IN ZONE B SELECTIVE REENLISTMENT BONUS

      CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED// ROUTINE R 311705Z OCT 24 MID180000023394U FM CNO WASHINGTON DC TO NAVADMIN INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC BT UNCLAS NAVADMIN 224/24 PASS TO OFFICE CODES: FM CNO WASHINGTON DC//N1// INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC//N1// MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/N1/OCT// SUBJ/TIERED MULTIPLES FOR NUCLEAR TRAINED SAILORS IN ZONE B SELECTIVE REENLISTMENT BONUS// REF/A/DOC/OPNAV/1APR19// REF/B/MSG/CNO WASHINGTON DC/272026ZFEB23// NARR/REF A IS OPNAVINST 1160.8B, SELECTIVE REENLISTMENT BONUS PROGRAM. REF B IS NAVADMIN 055/23, ENLISTED SUPERVISOR RETENTION PAY POLICY UPDATES.// RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN announces the implementation of a tiered multiple for nuclear trained Sailors executing Zone B Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB). Nuclear trained Sailors reenlisting in SRB Zone B who commit to return to sea following their shore tour will, receive a higher SRB multiple and higher contract limit. 2. Purpose. Maintaining a strong and talented cadre of Second Sea Tour (SEA-2) Sailors is vital to maximizing the warfighting capabilities of the nuclear fleet. This NAVADMIN creates a unique retention incentive for qualified, career-minded, nuclear trained Sailors who commit to return to sea. 3. Eligibility. Nuclear trained Sailors must meet all requirements listed in references (a) and (b) for Zone B reenlistment and the following: a. Qualified propulsion plant watch supervisor or engineering watch supervisor (currently holding the N33Z NEC) b. Reenlist in SRB Zone B for a period of six years during their First Sea Tour (SEA-1); or earliest opportunity, if transferred from SEA-1 prior to six years of service. Forward any questions regarding reenlistment timing to Nuclear Enlisted Programs (OPNAV N133D). 4. Incentive. These nuclear trained Sailors will be able to utilize a 10.5 multiple for purposes of calculating their SRB Zone B bonus in line with reference (a). Additionally, the following limits apply to these SRBs replacing those listed in reference (a): (1) $40,000 per year of additional obligated service and (2) $160,000 per contract. All other portions of reference (a) are applicable. 5. Execution. The maximum award level >$100,000 or $40,000/year of active obligated service is not yet programed into Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS). Sailors seeking to take advantage of bonuses in excess of $100,000 should submit the bonus as normal in NSIPS. Once the SRB pre-certification is approved, contact the SRB help desk at 901-874-3215 or mill_incen_pays.fct@navy.mil to recalculate the bonus for the correct amount. 6. Note. Executing a six year SRB Zone B and committing to a SEA-2 tour does not preclude Sailors from re-enlisting in the enlisted supervisor retention pay Zone 1 in line with reference (b). 7. The point of contact is the Nuclear Enlisted Community Manager, OPNAV N133D, and can be reached at (703) 604-5491/DSN 664 or via e-mail at bullnuke@navy.mil. 8. Released by Vice Admiral Richard J. Cheeseman, Jr., N1.// BT #0001 NNNN CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED//
