Ship Systems / C4I / Warfare Systems Engineering

Abstract

The Frigate will be a multi-mission ship that will leverage the existing Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) designs,and focusing on anti-surface warfare and anti-submarine warfare capabilities (SUW/ASW). The Frigate adds capability while maximizing the LCS investments made to date in the small surface combatant force. Modifications will include over-the-horizon surface-to-surface missile system, upgraded Air Defense weapons and sensors, advanced electronic warfare system and improved decoys, and all elements of the SUW and ASW mission packages (horizon surface-to-surface missile system, 30mm guns, variable depth sonar, towed array and torpedo defense).
