Explanation

The FMS Case signed pre Second Pass project approval involved three contractual steps (initial version and two amendments); October 2005 for initial engineering services, April 2006 for long lead items and July 2006 for the full scope of three ship sets of core Aegis Combat System equipment. The resulting scope was in accordance with Government approval of Sea 4000 Phase 3.1. Post Second Pass, there has been one further amendment to the FMS Case for additional Aegis Combat System equipment and services. This amendment is in accordance with Government approval at Second Pass of the full scope of Sea 4000 Phase 3. There will be further amendments to the FMS Case to cover the full planned scope of FMS supplies, still within Second Pass Government approval, and this could represent significant cost risk due to the uncertainty of future US Navy orders for Aegis systems.
