LPD Flight II Design & Total Integration

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. Efforts are required to continue pursuing affordability initiatives. Efforts also include Gate and Milestone (MS) reviews/documentation, Capability Development Document (CDD), Indicative/Preliminary/Contract Design (ID/PD/CD) and development of logistics and Test & Evaluation documentation. In addition, this program element includes the Live Fire Test & Evaluation (LFT&E) and Operational Evaluation (OPEVAL) tests required for the lead ship. LPD 28 and LPD 29 will be used to conduct these test events as they incorporate some LPD Flight II changes prior to the lead Flight II Ship. LPD 28, LPD 29 and LPD 30 each incorporate LX(R) changes across three ships. Program is on track to support FY 2027 retirement of LSDs.
