A P1102 weapons-magazine project is planned at Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut.
The design-bid-build project involves weapons magazines at Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut.
What the New London Project Involves
A separate procurement description concerns the P1102 Weapons Magazine and Ordnance Operations Facility at Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut, as detailed by starbridge.ai. The scope includes six containerized long-weapons-storage magazines, two Box G magazines and one Box H magazine.
A separate Navy forecast tied to the ammunition-storage effort, issued through NAVFAC Mid-Atlantic and posted in July, described the broader objective as constructing 19 magazines to support ammunition storage requirements, per cleat.ai. It is not established whether that 19-magazine forecast, the detailed solicitation quantities and the scope actually awarded to Sauer are identical, so the precise final magazine count tied to this specific contract remains unclear.
How the Award Compares to Other Navy Contracts
Other recent Navy ammunition-storage awards offer points of comparison but do not speak to the New London project's specific schedule or funding. The Navy separately awarded Conti Federal Services a $78 million contract to build ordnance storage magazines and a maintenance facility at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Italy, according to defence-blog.com. That Sigonella project covers four earth-covered magazines with seismic upgrades, two modular storage magazines and a maintenance facility for an ammunition rework and overhaul shop, with work scheduled for completion by August 2030 and $67.7 million obligated at award from fiscal 2024 military construction funds.
A separate Pentagon contracts announcement covered awards made around the same period. Details on the New London project's performance period, expected completion date, contract number and the amount formally obligated at award have not been made public.
