WHAT WE STAND FOR
Comprised of men and women who provide parts and services for these great ships, the Aircraft Carrier Industrial Base Coalition (ACIBC) seeks to preserve the strength of the aircraft carrier program and promote the value of the aircraft carrier industrial base as a vital part of the nation’s overall defense structure. Today’s U.S. Navy aircraft carriers are the stunning result of over 2,000 companies in 44 states performing $9.2 billion worth of work.
This nationwide industrial base continually invests in new equipment, technology, and a workforce to design and build ships that evolve with national security strategy. These supply-chain companies depend on a steady and predictable carrier-program schedule, which is appropriated and authorized by Congress.
NATIONAL MAP
Aircraft carriers are built and maintained with parts built by over 2,000 businesses spread out across the United States– helping inject $9.4 billion into communities across the country.
As the map below demonstrates, stability in aircraft carrier programs is critical not only to our national security, but also to the shipbuilding industrial base as well.
