Business of Supply Mr. Chair, the government has announced that Irving will build a sixth AOPS at $800 million, double the cost of the first five, when the cost should be dropping as production gets more efficient. As per the RAND Corp. statement, there should be about a 20% drop. Why is the price tag for the sixth ship going from $400 million to $800 million?
