The con- tract took effect February 1 this year and will continue through Sep- tember 30, 1989. T-AGOS ships are the platform and transportation for SURTASS, a passive undersea surveillance sys- tem. The 12 ships will operate worldwide, alternating their mis- sions at sea with calls at overseas ports. Six of the vessels will be homeported in Pearl Harbor and six in Little Creek, Va. All 12 ships are being built for the Navy by Tacoma Boat Building Company in Washington. Three have been delivered to MSC, the remaining nine will be completed over the next two and one-half years. An MSC-employed Civil Service crew will man each ship for the first 11 months following delivery, after which it will be turned over to Sea Mobility for operation by its em- ployees. In addition to the operating crew of about 18, each ship will car- ry seven SURTASS technicians. Whitey Co.
