LCS, Littoral Combat Ship Vessel

The surface warfare mission module is intended to deal only with small boats and is called "best swarm killer in the surface fleet". It includes two 30mm gun mission modules manufactured by Teledyne Brown Engineering, Inc.
In January 2011, the U.S. Navy recommended that Raytheon's Griffin missile system be selected as the replacement for the NLOS-LS missile. This would lower the missile range of the LCS from 25 miles to 3.5 miles. The packages are to be deployed in sets of three, with 15 per set for a total of 45 missiles. Initial deployment is for 2015, with a longer ranged version to enter service around 2017. The longer range missile will be chosen in a competition for a "beyond the horizon" system.
- Anti-submarine module
The anti-submarine module will have its focus changed from stationary systems to en-stride systems (while the ship is moving) that are useful in the open ocean as well as in coastal areas. One of the items to be added is a "torpedo detection capability" so that the ship can know when it is under attack.
