Amphibious Tactical Supt Units

Abstract

The FY 2019 funding request was reduced by $0.020 million to reflect the Department of Navy's effort to support the Office of Management and Budget directed reforms for Efficiency and Effectiveness that include a lean, accountable, more efficient government. Landing Craft, Air Cushion (LCAC): Research and development efforts to transfer technologies into functional uses on the current LCACs. Current technology initiatives include sustainability/reliability/readiness/performance analyses, LCAC communication improvements, compliance with Cybersecurity policy regulations, and LCAC Total Ownership Costs (TOC) reduction initiatives. Landing Craft, Utility (LCU 1700): Replacement program for the current LCU 1610 class craft - a class of craft that has exceeded its 25-year planned service life by nearly double, average age of craft is approaching 50-years-old. LCU 1700 will provide similar payload, range, speed, and interoperability. Contract award is planned for early 2018. The Amphibious Support Craft Vehicle (ASCV) which will be the Lighter Amphibious Resupply Cargo, 5 ton (LARC-V) Replacement, provides amphibious equipment and personnel transport as well as near shore salvage and diving capability.
