LCS Mission Package Development
Abstract
Program provides focused war fighting capabilities in littoral mine warfare, countering small boat threats and littoral anti-submarine warfare to provide assured access to enable the US Joint Force operations in the littoral. Mission module development includes architectures, interfaces and development of mission module. Mission systems development also includes the procurement of the first mission packages to be used on the Flight 0 Littoral Combat Ships (LCS). Mine Countermeasures (MCM) Mission Modules will provide the Joint Force Commander with the capability to conduct Mine Countermeasure (MCM) operations ranging from first response mine detection and avoidance, to neutralization and sweeping in littoral conditions, enabling Joint Forcible Entry. This will open transit lanes and operating areas for naval forces. MCM operations will reduce the access timeline in contested littorals. Anti-Submarine Warfare Modules will provide ASW capabilities while operating in a contested littoral environment. Leveraging multiple distributed sensors netted together, LCS will exploit real time undersea data, using maneuver and deception to enhance detection, classification, identification, targeting and destruction of enemy submarines. Surface Warfare Mission Modules will provide the capability to detect, track and engage small boat threats, giving the joint force commander the ability to maximize striking power, shield high value units, or successfully move through a restricted area.
