“Commandant Names Future Polar Security Cutter ‘Polar Sentinel’ ”–Seapower

Photo of a model of Halter Marine’s Polar Security Cutter seen at Navy League’s Sea-Air-Space Exhibition have surfaced. Photo credit Chris Cavas.

The on-line edition of the Navy League’s magazine “Seapower” provides another report on the Commandant’s State of the Coast Guard speech.

This post has emphasis on the shipbuilding program.

Looks like the Coast Guard is becoming frustrated with the delays in the Polar Security Cutter and Offshore Patrol Cutter programs. I have to wonder how this will affect the award of the second phase of the OPC program.
