US Navy waste systemsSigned contract on September 4
th, 2020 for $11.5M
“The systems are expected to be built within the next 18 months”
That brings us to March 2022, assuming that “within 18 months” was without hiccups. But we know what happened with the “within 6 months” don’t we ?,
Anyway, I don’t see that these 2 systems are even delivered yet, it could be another 6 months with all the delivery delays and covid etc..
Then, maybe by January 2023, the Navy will certainly proceed with SAT (Site Acceptance Test).
They have lots of time, these carriers are not to sail until 2028 and 2032.
On the bright side, it might be the next NR; “Following our 9/4/2020 NR we are pleased to announce the first delivery 1 waste system to the US Navy”.
Some of you might freak out when they announce it, cause some of you seems to think that these 2 systems are on board and sailing as we speak.
(As for the previous contracts to the Navy, 2018 and 2019 totaling less than $1M, they were clearly not the same waste destruction systems)
