The Administration's proposed FY2005 defense budget requests $642.9 million in procurement funding and $20.0 million in research and development funding for the Navy's program to refuel and convert four Trident ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs) into cruise-missile-carrying and special operations forces (SOF) support submarines (SSGNs). The total estimated cost of the program, which has been increasing overtime, is now $4010.2 million.
