Renk also supplied the reduction gearing for some of the FRG's Bre- men Class F122 frigates. Another Navy supplier, Falk, of- fers the RW Series of marine drives. The series features high-efficiency gears, long bearing life and simpli- fied maintenance. The COGAG propulsion system aboard the destroyer Arleigh Burke includes GE reduction gearing. Over the past few years, GE has invested more than $25.5 million in its ad- vanced hardened and ground gear facility at Lynn, Mass., and now has one of the world's finest gear facili- ties in the world. The complex is dedicated to the design, manufac- ture and test of superior and har- dened and ground Navy gears. Two other major suppliers of re- duction gearing to the international naval market are Westinghouse and Western Gear. Westinghouse reduc- tion gears are aboard the amphi- bious assault ship Wasp, as well as Spruance and Kidd Class destroyers and Ticonderoga Class cruisers. Western Gear has supplied reduc- tion gears for both the Oliver Haz- ard Perry Class (FFG-7) and Ade- laide Class (Australian) frigates.
