SEC. 129. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON IMPORTANCE OF ENGINEERING
IN EARLY STAGES OF SHIPBUILDING.
It is the sense of Congress that—
(1) placing a priority on engineering dollars in the early
stages of shipbuilding programs is a vital component of keeping
cost down; and
(2) therefore, the Secretary of the Navy should take appro-
priate steps to prioritize early engineering in large ship
construction including amphibious class ships beginning with
the LHA–8.
SEC. 130. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON NUCLEAR-POWERED BALLISTIC
SUBMARINES.
It is the sense of Congress that—
(1) the continuous at-sea deterrence provided by a robust
and modern fleet of nuclear-powered ballistic missile sub-
marines is critical to maintaining nuclear deterrence and assur-
ance and therefore is a central pillar of the national security
of the United States;
(2) the Navy should—
(A) carry out a program to replace the Ohio class
ballistic missile submarines;
(B) ensure that the first such replacement submarine
is delivered and fully operational by not later than 2031
in order to maintain continuous at-sea deterrence; and
(C) develop a risk mitigation plan to ensure that robust
continuous at-sea deterrence is provided during the transi-
tion from Ohio class ballistic missile submarines to the
replacement submarines; and
(3) a minimum of 12 replacement ballistic missile sub-
marines are necessary to provide continuous at-sea deterrence
over the lifetime of such submarines and, therefore, the Navy
should carry out a program to produce 12 such submarines.
SEC. 131. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON MARINE CORPS AMPHIBIOUS LIFT
AND PRESENCE REQUIREMENTS.
(a) F
INDINGS
.—Congress finds the following:
(1) The Marine Corps is a combat force that leverages
maneuver from the sea as a force multiplier allowing for a
variety of operational tasks ranging from major combat oper-
ations to humanitarian assistance.
(2) The Marine Corps is unique in that, while embarked
upon naval vessels, they bring all the logistic support necessary
for the full range of military operations and, operating ‘‘from
the sea’’, they require no third-party host nation permission
to conduct military operations.
(3) The Navy has a requirement for 38 amphibious assault
ships to meet this full range of military operations.
(4) Due only to fiscal constraints, that requirement of 38
vessels was reduced to 33 vessels, which adds military risk
to future operations.
(5) The Navy has been unable to meet even the minimal
requirement of 30 operationally available vessels and has sub-
mitted a shipbuilding and ship retirement plan to Congress
that will reduce the force to 28 vessels.

(6) Experience has shown that early engineering and design
of naval vessels has significantly reduced the acquisition costs
and life-cycle costs of those vessels.
(b) S
ENSE OF
C
ONGRESS
.—It is the sense of Congress that—
(1) the Department of Defense should carefully evaluate
the maritime force structure necessary to execute demand for
forces by the commanders of the combatant commands;
(2) the Navy should carefully evaluate amphibious lift
capabilities to meet current and projected requirements;
(3) the Navy should consider prioritization of investment
in and procurement of the next generation of amphibious
assault ships as a component of the balanced battle force;
(4) the next generation amphibious assault ships should
maintain survivability protection;
(5) operation and maintenance requirements analysis, as
well as the potential to leverage a common hull form design,
should be considered to reduce total ownership cost and acquisi-
tion cost; and
(6) maintaining a robust amphibious ship building indus-
trial base is vital for the future of the national security of
the United States.
SEC. 132. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY
FISCAL YEAR 2014 BUDGET REQUEST FOR TACTICAL AVIA-
TION AIRCRAFT.
It is the sense of the Senate that, if the budget request of
the Department of the Navy for fiscal year 2014 for F–18 aircraft
includes a request for funds for more than 13 new F–18 aircraft,
the budget request of the Department of the Navy for fiscal year
2014 for F–35 aircraft should include a request for funds for not
fewer than six F–35B aircraft and four F–35C aircraft, presuming
that development, testing, and production of the F–35 aircraft are
proceeding according to current plans.

SEC. 232. SENSE OF CONGRESS ON MISSILE DEFENSE.
(a) F
INDINGS
.—Congress finds the following:
(1) In a December 18, 2010, letter to the Senate leadership,
President Obama wrote that the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization (NATO) ‘‘invited the Russian Federation to
cooperate on missile defense, which could lead to adding Rus-
sian capabilities to those deployed by NATO to enhance our
common security against common threats. The Lisbon Summit
thus demonstrated that the Alliance’s missile defenses can be
strengthened by improving NATO-Russian relations. This
comes even as we have made it clear that the system we
intend to pursue with Russia will not be a joint system, and
it will not in any way limit United States’ or NATO’s missile
defense capabilities.’’.
(2) In a February 2, 2011, message to the Senate concerning
its December 22, 2010, Resolution of Advice and Consent to
Ratification of the New START Treaty, President Obama cer-
tified that ‘‘It is the policy of the United States to continue
development and deployment of United States missile defense
systems to defend against missile threats from nations such
as North Korea and Iran, including qualitative and quantitative
improvements to such systems. As stated in the Resolution,
such systems include all phases of the Phased Adaptive
Approach to missile defense in Europe, the modernization of
the Ground-based Midcourse Defense system, and the continued
development of the two-stage Ground-Based Interceptor as a
technological and strategic hedge.’’.
(3) In a letter dated December 13, 2011, to Senator Mark
Kirk, Robert Nabors, Assistant to the President and Director
of the Office of Legislative Affairs, wrote that ‘‘The United
States remains committed to implementing the European
Phased Adaptive Approach to missile defense, and will not
agree to any constraints limiting the development or deploy-
ment of United States missile defenses’’ and ‘‘[w]e will not
provide Russia with sensitive information about our missile
defense systems that would in any way compromise our national
security. For example, hit-to-kill technology and interceptor
telemetry will under no circumstances be provided to Russia.’’.

the United States against limited ballistic missile attack
(whether accidental, unauthorized, or deliberate)...’’;
(2) defenses against ballistic missiles are essential for new
deterrent strategies and for new strategies should deterrence
fail;
(3) further limitations on the missile defense capabilities
of the United States are not in the national security interest
of the United States;
(4) the New Start Treaty and the April 7, 2010, unilateral
statement of the Russian Federation on missile defense do
not limit in any way, and shall not be interpreted as limiting,
activities that the Federal Government of the United States
currently plans or that might be required over the duration
of the New START Treaty to protect the United States pursuant
to the National Missile Defense Act of 1999, or to protect
the Armed Forces of the United States and allies of the United
States from limited ballistic missile attack, including further
planned enhancements to the Ground-based Midcourse Defense
system and all phases of the Phased Adaptive Approach to
missile defense in Europe;
(5) it was the Understanding of the Senate in its December
22, 2010, Resolution of Advice and Consent to Ratification
of the New START Treaty that, ‘‘any additional New START
Treaty limitations on the deployment of missile defenses beyond
those contained in paragraph 3 of Article V, including any
limitations agreed under the auspices of the Bilateral Consult-
ative Commission, would require an amendment to the New
START Treaty which may enter into force for the United States
only with the advice and consent of the Senate, as set forth
in Article II, section 2, clause 2 of the Constitution of the
United States’’; and
(6) section 303(b) of the Arms Control and Disarmament
Act (22 U.S.C. 2573(b)) requires that ‘‘no action shall be taken
pursuant to this or any other Act that would obligate the
United States to reduce or limit the Armed Forces or
armaments of the United States in a militarily significant
manner, except pursuant to the treaty-making power of the
President set forth in Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of the

framework for so-called ‘‘plug-and-play’’ integration of a variety
of types of deployable tools, including appropriate commercially
available applications, in addition to cyber intrusion detection
tools, including tools for—
(A) insider threat detection;
(B) continuous monitoring and configuration manage-
ment;
(C) remediation following infections; and
(D) protection techniques that do not rely on detection
of the attack.

(1) More than 70 percent of the world’s surface is comprised
of navigable oceans.
(2) More than 80 percent of the population of the world
lives within 100 miles of an ocean.
(3) More than 90 percent of the world’s commerce traverses
an ocean.
(4) The national security of the United States is inextricably
linked to the maintenance of global freedom of access for both
the strategic and commercial interests of the United States.
(5) To maintain that freedom of access the sea services
of the United States, composed of the Navy, the Marine Corps,
and the Coast Guard, must be sufficiently positioned as
rotationally globally deployable forces with the capability to
decisively defend United States citizens, homeland, and
interests abroad from direct or asymmetric attack and must

(6) To achieve appropriate capabilities to ensure national

ONGRESS
.—It is the sense of Congress that—
(1) the sea services of the United States should be funded
and maintained to provide the broad spectrum of capabilities
required to protect the national security of the United States;
(2) such capabilities should include—
(A) the ability to project United States power rapidly
anywhere on the globe without the need for host nation
basing permission or long and potentially vulnerable logis-
tics supply lines;
(B) the ability to land and recover maritime forces
from the sea for direct combat action, to evacuate United
States citizens from hostile situations, and to provide
humanitarian assistance where needed;
(C) the ability to operate from the subsurface with
overpowering conventional combat power, as well as stra-
tegic deterrence; and
(D) the ability to operate in collaboration with United
States maritime partners in the common interest of pre-
venting piracy at sea and maintaining the commercial sea
lanes available for global commerce;
(3) the Secretary of Defense, in coordination with the Sec-
retary of the Navy, should maintain the recapitalization plans
for the Navy as a priority in all future force structure decisions;
and
(4) the Secretary of Homeland Security should maintain
the recapitalization plans for the Coast Guard as a priority
in all future force structure decisions.
SEC. 1018. NOTICE TO CONGRESS FOR THE REVIEW OF PROPOSALS
TO NAME NAVAL VESSELS.
(a) F
INDINGS
.—Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The Navy traces its ancestry to October 13, 1775, when
an Act of the Continental Congress authorized the first vessel
of a navy for the United Colonies. Vessels of the Continental
Navy were named for early patriots and military heroes, Fed-
eral institutions, colonial cities, and positive character traits
representative of naval and military virtues.
(2) An Act of Congress on March 3, 1819, made the Sec-
retary of the Navy responsible for assigning names to vessels
of the Navy. Traditional sources for vessel names customarily
encompassed such categories as geographic locations in the
United States; historic sites, battles, and ships; naval and mili-
tary heroes and leaders; and noted individuals who made distin-
guished contributions to United States national security.
(3) These customs and traditions provide appropriate and
necessary standards for the naming of vessels of the Navy.

tions of global vigilance, power, and reach are fulfilled.
(3) The ability of the United States to rapidly respond
to humanitarian disasters and the outbreak of hostilities any-
where in the world truly defines the United States as a global
power.
(4) Mobility Air Forces Airmen are unified by one single
purpose: to answer the call of others so they may prevail.
(5) The United States’ hand of friendship to the world
many times takes the form of Mobility Air Forces aircraft
delivering humanitarian relief. Since its inception, Air Mobility
Command has provided forces for 43 humanitarian relief efforts
at home and abroad, from New Orleans, Louisiana, to Bam,
Iran.
(6) A Mobility Air Forces aircraft departs every 2 minutes,
365 days a year. Since September 11, 2001, Mobility Air Forces
aircraft have flown 18.9 million passengers, 6.8 million tons
of cargo, and offloaded 2.2 billion pounds of fuel. Many of
these flights have assisted combat aircraft protection United
States forces from overhead.
(7) The United States keeps its solemn promise to its
men and women in uniform with Air Mobility Command, accom-
plishing 186,940 patient movements since the beginning of
Operation Iraqi Freedom.
(8) Mobility Air Forces Airmen reflect the best values of
the Nation: delivering hope, saving lives, and fueling the fight.
(b) S
ENSE OF
C

.—It is the sense of Congress that,
on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the establishment of

(1) recognize the critical role that Mobility Air Forces play
in the Nation’s defense; and
(2) express appreciation for the leadership of Air Mobility
Command and the more than 134,000 active-duty, Air National
Applicability.

their existing spectrum capacity, there is a pressing need for
additional spectrum for mobile broadband services;

(3) as the United States faces the growing demand for
spectrum, consideration should be given to both the supply
of spectrum for licensed networks and for unlicensed devices;
(4) while such growing demand can be met in part by
reallocating spectrum from existing non-governmental uses, the
long-term solution must include reallocation and sharing of
Federal Government spectrum for private sector use;
(5) recognizing the important uses of spectrum by the Fed-
eral Government, including for national security, law enforce-
ment, and other critical Federal uses, existing law ensures
that Federal operations are not harmed as a result of a realloca-
tion of spectrum for commercial use, including through the
establishment of the Spectrum Relocation Fund to reimburse
Federal users for the costs of planning and implementing reloca-
tion and sharing arrangements and, with respect to spectrum
vacated by the Department of Defense, certification under sec-
tion 1062(b) of the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 2000 (Public Law 106–65; 113 Stat. 768) by the
Secretary of Defense, the Secretary of Commerce, and the
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that replacement spec-
trum provides comparable technical characteristics to restore
essential military capability; and
(6) given the need to determine equitable outcomes for
the United States in relation to spectrum use that balance
the demand of the private sector for spectrum with national
security and other critical Federal missions, all interested par-
ties should be encouraged to continue the collaborative efforts
between industry and government stakeholders that have been
launched by the National Telecommunications and Information
Administration to assess and recommend practical frameworks
for the development of relocation, transition, and sharing
arrangement and plans for 110 megahertz of Federal spectrum
in the 1695–1710 MHz and the 1755–1850 MHz bands.

SEC. 1224. SENSE OF CONGRESS COMMENDING THE ENDURING STRA-
TEGIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE UNITED
STATES AND AFGHANISTAN.
(a) F
INDINGS
.—Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The United States and Afghanistan have been allies
in the conflict against al Qaeda and its affiliates for over
a decade, with the shared goal of ensuring that Afghanistan
is never again a sanctuary for al Qaeda.
(2) The United States and Afghanistan are committed to
the framework agreed to at the North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
tion (NATO) Summit in Lisbon in 2010, and reaffirmed at
the NATO Summit in Chicago in 2012, for the transition from
coalition forces to the Afghan National Security Forces of lead
responsibility for security throughout Afghanistan by the end
of 2014.
(3) In June 2011, President Barack Obama said, ‘‘What
we can do, and will do, is build a partnership with the Afghan
people that endures—one that ensures that we will be able
to continue targeting terrorists and supporting a sovereign
Afghan government’’.
(4) In November 2011, a traditional loya jirga in Kabul
declared that ‘‘strategic cooperation with the United States
of America, which is a strategic ally of the people and govern-
ment of Afghanistan, is considered important in order to ensure
political, economic, and military security’’ and also stated,
‘‘Signing a strategic cooperation document with the United
States conforms with the national interest of Afghanistan and
is of significant importance’’.
(5) On May 2, 2012, President Obama and President Hamid
Karzai signed the Enduring Strategic Partnership Agreement
Between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic
of Afghanistan.
(6) At the signing of the Enduring Strategic Partnership
Agreement, President Obama said, ‘‘Today we’re agreeing to
be long-term partners in combating terrorism, and training
Afghan security forces, strengthening democratic institutions
and supporting development, and protecting human rights of
all Afghans. With this agreement, the Afghan people, and the
world, should know that Afghanistan has a friend and a partner
in the United States’’.
(7) At a May 20, 2012, bilateral meeting with President
Karzai at the NATO Summit in Chicago, President Obama
said that the Enduring Strategic Partnership Agreement
‘‘reflects a future in which two sovereign nations—the United
States and Afghanistan—are operating as partners, to the ben-
efit of our countries’ citizens, but also for the benefit of peace
and security and stability in the region and around the world’’.
(8) President Karzai said at the May 20, 2012, bilateral
meeting with President Obama, ‘‘Mr. President, the partnership
that we signed a few weeks ago in Kabul has turned a new
page in our relations. And the new page is a page of two
sovereign countries working together for the mutual interests—
peace and security and in all other areas’’.
(9) On May 26, 2012, the Wolesi Jirga, the lower house
of the Afghan parliament, approved the Agreement by a vote
of 191–7 with 2 abstentions.

of the Afghan parliament, approved the Agreement by a vote
of 67–13.
(11) On July 8, 2012, at the Tokyo Conference on Afghani-
stan, the international community and the Government of
Afghanistan reaffirmed their partnership in the economic
growth and development of Afghanistan through a process of
mutual commitments and accountability.
(12) On July 4, 2012, the Enduring Strategic Partnership

of all citizens of Afghanistan and enforce the rule of law,
hold free and fair elections in 2014, and build inclusive and

of United States Armed Forces for the purpose of training,
advising, and supporting Afghan National Security Forces and
cooperating on shared counterterrorism objectives;

tion risks presented by the Iranian nuclear program.
