Workboats Consulting Competitors

For 137 years, the ships built at Newport News Shipbuilding, like the American shipbuilders who built them, have served our nation in peace and war, in times of adversity and in times of abundance. Our legacy of “Always Good Ships,” includes the design, construction, overhaul and repair of more than 800 ships for the U.S. Navy and commercial customers. Today, Newport News Shipbuilding, a division of HII, is the nation’s sole designer, builder and refueler of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and one of only two shipyards capable of designing and building nuclear- powered submarines. We also provide fleet services for naval ships. We are the largest industrial employer in Virginia, employing more than 25,000 people, many of whom are third- and fourth-generation shipbuilders.

As an international naval defence player, Naval Group is a partner for countries seeking to maintain control of their maritime sovereignty. With its extraordinary know-how and unique industrial resources, it designs, produces, integrates, supports and upgrades submarines, surface ships and drones, as well as their systems, their weapons and equipment, through all phases right up to deconstruction.
