Meet the Littoral Combat Ship: US Navy’s $500 Million Warship
More than 17 years ago, the U.S. Navy christened the first of a new class of warship designed to operate in near-shore environments. The so-called Littoral Combat Ships or LCS would be fast and agile, capable of countering 21st-century coastal threats such as missile-firing boats, small submarines, and mines.
Littoral combat ships are comparable to corvettes found in other navies.
The Freedom class and the Independence class are the two LCS variants.
