LCS InternationaA 21st Century Warsh
Naval history was made on September 23,
2006 when the first Littoral Combat Ship
FREEDOM (LCS 1) officially launched in
Marinette, WI. LCS is a high speed, shallow
draft, rapidly reconfigurable surface combatant
designed to address the asymmetric threats in
littoral waters around the world.
The Lockheed Martin LCS team leveraged
best of breed technologies from the U.S. Navyand industry around the world to produce a
transformational warship at an affordable price
and in less than half the time of a traditional
warship building program. Our approach
provides the U.S. Navy with new capabilities in
an open, flexible architecture to enable rapid,
low risk integration of emerging technologies
throughout the life-cycle of the ship.
Lockheed Martins LCS solution is available in
multiple configurations and is scalable for the
needs of naval forces around the globe from
focused mission to multi-mission variants.
Whether conducting missions close to the
shoreline, or in blue waters, the Lockheed
Martin LCS is the optimal choice with a hull
form operable in all sea states. The LCS
design contains a large flight deck, hangar
and mission zones for special operations and
launch and recovery of unmanned vehicles and
small craft.
LCS International Variants
The Waterborne Mission Zone is capable
of handling a wide variety of manned and
unmanned vehicles. The LCS design provid
for a large reconfigurable space to support
future missions and specific international nav
requirements. The Lockheed Martin team
has established the capability of the LCS
seaframe and combat management system
(COMBATSS-21) to support additional missi
areas including area air defense and unders
warfare.
