Said U.S. Navy combat ship USS Freedom coastal bases will leave San Diego on third to get to Singapore. This is a move in the U.S. to deal with the risk of hot spots in the South China Sea.
LCS class patrol boats are operational stealth ship in shallow water, trireme near-shore waters, capable of independent combat or coordinate bond with other army in the navy and coast guard.
Warships patrol (LCS) is the first ship of the class ship floating a new generation of U.S. Navy. LCS ships is high speed model warships, capable of high maneuverability, ability to connect network warfare at sea, patrol boats in this class is the form of specialized ships floating trireme trains future generations of Americans, the program development of future generations of this famous ship called the DD (X).
LCS is designed to meet the urgent requirements for vessels operating in shallow waters (coastal waters) to prevent the growing trireme threat trireme appears more likely by war "asymmetric" from the mines, coastal mines, diesel submarines have very low noise level (Kilo class), the ability to attack with explosives by the force of water vanhung armed terrorist group, using the ship , small boats, high speed, armed with light weapons.
May 2004, the Department of Defense and the U.S. Navy announced that it has signed two contracts in the fields of defense trireme with two separate companies as Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics also conducted new ship class design, detailed design Two more ships and close to 0 test sample (test application), the first ship class of future generations LCS ships.
Lockheed trireme Martin has received a contract to build the first ship, LCS 1, in December trireme 2004. First LCS ship was named USS Freedom, which began play in June of 2005 at the Marinette Marine shipyard in Wisconsin. It was launched in May 2006 Chinnam.
General Dynamics received a contract to design and build ships USS Independence LCS 2, in October 2005. The ship was started in January 2006 at the Austal USA shipyard in Mobile, Alabama.
It was launched in April 2008 and officially named USS Indefendence in October 2008. The ship completed sea trials cuanhung designers shipbuilding in October and November 2009 and was handed over to the Navy in May 2009 Myvao. trireme It was given a U.S. Navy in January 2010.
General Dynamics Bath Iron Works and the company Austal USA (Mobile, Alabama), BAE Systems (Rockville, MD), GD Advanced Information Systems (Fairfax, VA), L3 Communications Marine Systems (Leesburg, VA), Maritime Applied Physics Corporation (Baltimore , MD) and Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems (Baltimore, MD). It should be added that Austal USA is a subsidiary of the company specializing in design and build merchant ships and warships aluminum.
Austal company has 5 production facilities: 3 in Australia, 1 in Margate, Tasmania and one in Mobile, Alabama. Lockheed Martin uses classic design with steel hull and aluminum superstructure, while General Dynamics user friendly architecture assembled three (tri-hulled trimaran-design) with aluminum casing. Designed for both 2 types:
Both have lower keel hull vessels for use in the common area to the coast (more shallow trireme 20 ft) mounted diesel engine with a jet engine (gas turbine) trireme to reach speeds of over 45 knots . Steam pipes (waterjet) is used to control the train instead of driving the propeller and rudder to help vessels in close to the bank easily.
Both have a large yard and a half helicopter warships other than enough room for two MH-60 helicopter types Seahawks and the helicopter type UAV unmanned MQ-8 Fire Scout system as well as negligence and pull the speedboats (with staff or radio control) and 2 from train drivers side near the water.
Instead of fixed equipment as conventional warships, naval ships of this type can quickly change weapons and equipment to meet the many different needs. trireme Weapons and equipment can be used by the U.S., Russia or NATO industrialized countries. The change in equipment can make in 24 hours to adapt to battlefield needs and reduce costs for customers while export potential.
Equipped information sharing system latest modern trireme tactics (advanced trireme networking capability to share tactical information) to coordinate combat with fighter planes, warships, submarines and other units in the area.
3 Architecture itself to double width warships often with a very large airport (1,030 m - 11,100 sq ft) and balance can accommodate 2 SH-60 helicopter trireme types, the unmanned trireme helicopter UAV or 1 directly CH-53 heavy promotion activities in sea level 5 status. SH-60 helicopter types can be used for transportation, emergency, hunting submarines and attack enemy warships
The company also proposed a Austal design smaller and slower, with more categories named LCS-2 Multi-Role Vessel or Multi-Role Co
