EB is going to be busy in Groton cranking out 2 VA Class hulls a year as well as the new COLUMBIA SSBN 826 Class to replace OHIO Class (Trident) boats.

EB and Newport News build and finish Virginia class subs together. They alternate launching complete boats. EB is the lead yard for the Columbia class, but NNS has a piece of the manufacturing work also.
