Four other shipbuilders were treated for smoke inhalation onsite. No additional injuries have been reported,\u201d Kimberly Aguillard, an Ingalls Shipbuilding spokeswoman, told Defense News. \u201cOur shipbuilders responded immediately and within a short amount of time the fire was extinguished. A full review of the events, including a detailed timeline, is under development.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cause of the fire remains under investigation, but initial findings indicate hot work was being performed nearby. Hot work can create sparks that can, as has been the case in previous shipboard fires, ignite flammable materials like rags, papers and oils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aguillard said the fire and smoke was contained to a small number of compartments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cInitial indications are that damage is limited to the immediately impacted compartments and no damage to the remainder of the ship nor the shipyard was incurred,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bougainville is the third America-class amphibious assault ship. Construction began in October 2018, and the ship is scheduled to launch from its land-based construction area into the water later this year. The ship was originally expected to deliver to the U.S. Navy in fiscal 2024, but service budget documents now show an October 2025 delivery date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ingalls Shipbuilding is a subsidiary of HII, which was ranked as the 17th largest defense company in the world in the <a href=\"https:\/\/people.defensenews.com\/top-100\/\" target=\"_blank\">Defense News Top
