"The Virginia-class is a new group of nuclear-powered cruise missile fast-attack submarines. It is scheduled to replace older Los Angeles-class submarines in the near future, and designed for battlespace dominance across a broad spectrum of regional and littoral missions as well as open-ocean, including anti-submarine warfare and inserting or recovering special operations forces.
"Reducing costs is a major feature of the Virginia-class submarine design and engineering process. Substantial cost avoidance is being achieved through the application of concurrent engineering design/build teams, computer-aided design and electronic visualization tools, system simplification, parts standardization, and component elimination."
