Medium Landing Ship

Abstract

Medium Landing Ship (LSM) is a medium-sized landing ship that enables distributed maneuver and logistics such as Distributed Maritime Operations (DMO), Littoral Operations in a Contested Environment (LOCE), and Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO) in support of the newly established Marine Littoral Regiment (MLR). It is designed to fill the gap in capability between the Navy's large, multipurpose amphibious warfare class ships and smaller landing vessels. This ship will deploy tailored logistics, select power projection and support strike capabilities via the embarked MLR.
