Abstract

The Landing System Upgrade Program (LSUP) is essential to maintain the United States Navy's capability to perform safe and expeditious aircraft landings aboard CVN and LHA/D vessels. The Navy's Precision Approach and Landing Capability requirements have necessitated Life Cycle Extension upgrades to legacy landing systems, AN/SPN-35, AN/SPN-41 and AN/SPN-46. The LSUP program will modernize technology that was developed and fielded over 30 years ago. It is estimated that without these upgrades, the Navy will lose its Automatic Carrier Landing System capability within 5 years.
