The U.S. Coast Guard announced a contract award to secure five Arctic Security Cutters, bringing the total amount of cutters being manufactured to 11 to meet President Donald Trump’s executive orders to expand the icebreaker fleet.
The contract award, announced Wednesday, will see Davie Defense, Inc. manufacture two Arctic Security Cutters in Helsinki, Finland, and produce three in the United States. It follows two December awards to Rauma Marine Constructions Oy in Finland and Bollinger Shipyards Lockport, L.L.C. in Louisiana for six cutters of the same type.
