LCS programme executive officer (PEO LCS) Rear Admiral James Murdoch said, “Production of LCS 6 marks another significant milestone in the programme, and demonstrates the efficiency benefits of our ‘block buy’ arrangements with the shipbuilders.”
The LCS is a fast, agile and networked surface combatant designed to ensure US maritime dominance and access for the joint force.
The modular, focused-mission design of the ships allows combatant commanders to provide operational flexibility as per warfighting capabilities.
