LX (R)

Abstract

LPD 17 Flight II will replace LSD-41 Class ships and LSD-49 Class ships for embark, transport, control, insert, sustainment, and extract of Marine Air-Ground Task Force elements and supporting forces by helicopters, landing craft, and amphibious vehicles. Cost reduction and affordability efforts are required to continue pursuing affordability initiatives. This program element includes the planning & documentation for Developmental Test and Evaluation (DT&E), Live Fire Test & Evaluation (LFT&E), Operational Evaluation (OPEVAL), and Follow-on Operational Test and Evaluation (FOT&E) tests required for LPD 17 Flight II. These test events will be conducted on the lead Flight II Ship (LPD 30) or where configuration supports capabilities on earlier ships (LPD 28 or LPD 29). Per signed Acquisition Decision Memorandum, LPD 17 Flight II will meet the Capabilities Development Document for LX(R) and shall subsume all previous LX(R) efforts. Name change endorsed in JROCM 093-21, from "Amphibious Ship Replacement LX(R)" to "LPD 17 San Antonio Class Amphibious Transport Dock FLT II." LPD 30 is the first ship of LPD 17 Flight II.
