LSD Design & Total Ship Integration

Abstract

LSD(X) is expected to functionally replace LSD 41 class (8 ships) and LSD 49 class (4 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. New design efforts are required to identify viable alternatives, including examining a reduced cost variant of LPD 17 Class. FY12 efforts continue the Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) and all Milestone (MS) A documentation that began in FY11. FY13 efforts complete the AoA and MS A and begin Capabilities Development Documentation (CDD) and Preliminary Design (PD). FY10 and FY11 LSD(X) efforts are budgeted in PE 0604311N.
