"During the fiscal 2019 budget release, the U.S. Navy will unveil changes to the number of 'mission modules' it will procure for Freedom - and Independence-class littoral combat ships, a program official said Thursday...The three LCS mission modules contain a number of weapons, sensors and unmanned systems used for missions related to surface warfare, mine countermeasures and anti-submarine warfare. Any changes to the existing programs of record could spell out millions of dollars for the companies manufacturing those products." [defensenews].
The US Navy’s LCS program office's integration of new unmanned assets in surface warfare, anti-submarine warfare and mine countermeasure modules demonstrates the increasing need for this technology, globally.
