This brings to 31 the number of FFGs awarded to Todd. The Los Angeles Division has completed 14 of the 18 contracted for, and the Seattle Division has delivered 12 of the 13 awarded there. BIW Will Get $383.6-Million Navy Contract To Build Two Aegis CG-47 Cruisers Bath Iron Works Corporation (BIW) in Maine is the apparent suc- cessful bidder for two of the three Aegis guided-missile cruisers of the Ticonderoga (CG-47) Class that the U.S. Navy ordered recently under the FY 85 shipbuilding program. The other ship was awarded to In- galls Shipbuilding, which was chos- en as the lead yard when the Aegis cruiser program began in 1978. The latest contract brings to four the number of cruisers ordered from BIW; Ingalls has received orders for a total of 13. According to BIW president Wil- liam E. Haggett, price was a key factor in the Navy's decision on the latest contracts. "BIW has under- taken major efforts to contain costs, and our pricing on these ships re- flects a management commitment to continue with every initiative necessary to remain ahead of the competition," he said. BIW, Ingalls, and Todd Ship- yards Corporation are all bidding for the construction of the DDG-51, lead ship in the new Arleigh Burke Class Aegis guided-missile de- stroyers. Authorized in the FY 85 shipbuilding program, the contract for the DDG-51 is scheduled to be awarded in January 1985.
