Note: PNS is scheduled to accomplish this installation on an in-yard 688 class submarine later this year therefore installations on SSN 765 and 762 would not be the first of the class.

Clarification to previous revision 05 FEB 2015:

Due to the alteration being funding via OPN vice O&M,N this item will be charged to CLIN 0005/0011, CPFF (all alterations have been moved to CLINs 5 and 11). The execution of the alteration is to be performed by the SY - the government will not utilize an AIT for this alteration. Additionally all costs associated with ShipAlt 4709K, production labor, services and material shall be charged to these CLINs.

Note: PNS is scheduled to accomplish the first of class installation on a 688 class submarine in late 2015, therefore installations on SSN 765 and 762 would not be the first of the class installations. The government will make lessons learned from the PNS first of class installation available to the private sector yards.
