Steel Forgings, Alloy, High Yield Strength (HY-80 and HY-100)

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is planning to cancel the existing specification MIL-S-23009C(SH) concerning Steel Forgings, Alloy, High Yield Strength (HY-80 and HY-100). In place of this, NAVSEA aims to develop new specifications and standards designed to support a wider range of design approaches and manufacturing processes. This effort is intended to foster increased competition and broaden the vendor base by allowing for more diverse solutions in steel forging requirements. To facilitate input from industry and government entities, a draft of the revised document has been made available for review and comment on NAVSEA's official specifications and standards webpage under the Government/Industry Review section. It is important to note that this action is not a solicitation for bids or proposals but rather a step towards updating and improving the governing technical standards for the production of high yield strength alloy steel forgings used in naval applications.
