Notes:
Final Evaluation Period (FEP) is designed to provide the ship with a dynamic scenario under stressful conditions for conditions I and III, and may be composed of a Total Ship Survivability Exercise (TSSE) and weapon firing exercises. Upon successful completion of the FEP, the Surface Type Commander certifies the unit ready to commence Intermediate Phase training for those scheduled to deploy and ready to chop to the NFC, nominally not later than 180 days prior to the deployment date. Units not scheduled to deploy remain under TYCOM OPCON for further training and operational tasking.
