Sea Base to Shore Connectors (Contract Des)

Abstract

Ship to Shore Connector (SSC) - This project provides the preliminary and contract design and Class test efforts for the SSC Program. This program provides the surface assualt portion of the Joint Expeditionary Maneuver Warfare tactical solution set requirement to project, sustain, retrograde and re-employ joint combat power from the sea and Sea Base, independent of tides, water depth, underwater obstacles or beach gradient. This project provides for the Systems Development and Demonstration package required for the solicitation for detail design/construction and test of the initial article. Class Test and evaluation of components and systems will also be completed under this project. SSC provides the functional replacement for the LCAC Class of ships, which begin reaching extended service life in 2014. This project also encompasses those tasks required to develop the contract data package necessary to support the procurement of the lead SSC craft, including, but not limited to engineering support, programmatic and program support, logistics support, manpower and program related studies. The lead craft is funded in RDT&E under this PE, Project 3137.
