This photo illustration shows the oldest and newest aircraft carriers in the Navy’s inventory, the USS Nimitz (CVN 68) commissioned in 1975 (top), and the USS Gerald Ford (CVN 78), commissioned in 2017. NAVSUP Weapon Systems Support supports both of these ships. Their part requirements can be different even though they are both aircraft carriers. This led to the standardization of language in NAVSUP WSS contracts. The language ensured part compatibility and better coordination with vendors.
