These numbers should naturally be treated with caution. Congress does not necessarily approve Navy budget requests and Navy's plans change: • last year DOD requested $13.1 billion to build or convert 29 ships—Congress approved $11.7 billion for 26 ships • two years ago Navy said 28 new ships were planned for FY 1986—Navy has now cut the figure to 23 ships • two years ago Navy said it planned to spend $16.8 billion on shipbuilding and conversion in FY 1986—the budget figure has now been cut to $11.4 billion
