Compared with F-76, how expensive is JP-5? http://www.sd.fisc.navy.mil/FUEL/FUEL-INFOR-PAGE.HTML JP-5 $1.03/gallon DFM $0.98/gallon (DFM is Diesel fuel, Marine, another term for F-76) In the tutorial URL I posted, they made a definite distinction between F-76 and DFM. That's roughly 5% difference. It may not seem like much, but considering the Navy's overall fuels budget, it can really add up. That's $500 for a 10K gallon fill up. Substantial enough savings. Anyone know how much fuel a DDG takes on at a time? Is there any official move in the RN or USN to adopt JP-5 as a single universal fuel? Not that I've ever heard of. Just proposals. -- Harry Andreas Engineering raconteur
