Fincantieri Marine Systems North America, Epsilon Systems Solutions and St Johns Boat will work on Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers and Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruisers, as well as amphibious vessels (Landing Ship Dock, San Antonio-class Landing Platform Dock and Wasp-class Landing Helicopter Dock).
