Designed to replace fluorescent tube lights while offering maximum light output and energy savings, the Seesmart LED tube lamps are developed in Simi Valley, California.
The US Navy has selected Seesmart LED tube lamps due to its light weight and extremely durable which require virtually no maintenance and have a long life expectancy.
The National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO)-built T-AKE dry cargo and ammunition non-combatant ships can operate independently for extended periods at sea while providing underway replenishment services.
Contributing to the US Navy’s ability to maintain a forward presence, the ships will be used to provide underway replenishment services with logistic lift from sources of supply in port or at sea and the transfer of cargo and materiel to battle groups, station ships, shuttle ships and other naval ships at sea.
