Large Surface Combatant Design Studies and Analysis
Abstract
Prior year LSC efforts were conducted as part of the Future Surface Combatant Force initiative under PE 0603563N/2196 Ship Concept Advanced Design for requirements and concept feasibility studies and under PE 0603573N/2471 Integrated Power Systems for land based test related planning. In FY19 the LSC program released requests for Information (RFI) to the shipbuilding industry and the supplier industry to collect product and process information to support requirements development and concept refinement, as well as solicit input on acquisition and competition strategies that will optimally involve industry in the future design effort. During FY20 the program focused on requirements development and refinement, supported by cost vs. capability analyses, concept feasibility studies and early industry engagement including follow-up on the FY19 RFIs. Acquisition strategy alternatives and impacts were also assessed. Planning and preparations for shoreside testing facilities, primarily the near-term Integrated Power and Energy System Test Facility (ITF) and also the future Land-Based Engineering Site (LBES), were started.
