Surface Warfare, May/June 2000. Volume 25, Number 3
Abstract
Support of the land battle has always been an important Surface Warfare mis- sion. From the earliest days, we've been there. But times change and advancements in technology allow us to do much more than just support the land battle; so we've expanded our range ring and captured a new mission area, land attack. Land attack complements our proven amphibious warfare capability by providing the means to decisively influence events far ashore. Supporting the Marine Corps' new operational doctrine requires advanced, longer-range precision weapons, coupled with a dynamic battle management system. We've worked closely with the Marine Corps in developing our naval surface fire requirements for DD 21. The key enabler and, you might say, executioner of this new warfare area is DD 21, our land attack destroyer.
