World Navies Today - Us Navy Littoral Warfare Vessels

World Navies Today: US Navy Littoral Warfare Vessels Revised 10 March 2003 Version 2.26 Compiled and Maintained by: Andrew Toppan World Navies Today Main Page: http://www.hazegray.org/worldnav/

This list includes all amphibious ships, mine craft and coastal patrol combatants. Small craft are listed in brief format at the end of the list. Ships not yet commissioned, or in long-term overhaul/conversion, are listed in italics. Navigation and surface-search radars are not listed. All classifications are purely unofficial and are based on an attempt to use standard classifications throughout all navies; they may or may not correspond to "official" designations. Where two dates are given (i.e. 1965/82), the first is the date of initial completion, and the second is the date of acquisition, conversion, or transfer. Designations given in (parentheses) are assigned but not displayed on the ship's hull.

Ship Types Included: Amphibious Assault Ships (LHA/LHD) Dock Landing Ships & Amphibious Transport Docks (LSD/LPD) Mine Warfare Ships (MCM, MHC) Coastal Combatants (PC) Landing Craft & Small Craft Note: The Blue Ridge class LCCs are listed with the auxiliaries, as Joint Command Ships, because they are assigned to a fleet/theater command role and have no connection to amphibious operations.

Amphibious Assault Ships Wasp class amphibious assault ships (7+1 ships)

Displacement: 40,530 tons full load Dimensions: 844 x 140 x 26.5 feet/257.25 x 42.7 x 8 meters Propulsion: 2 boilers, steam turbines, 2 shafts, 70,000 shp, 22 knots (LHD 8: 2 LM2500, 2 shafts, ~70,000 shp, ~22 knots) Crew: 1,146 Well Deck: 267 x 50 x 28 feet/81.4 x 15.2 x 8.5 meters; 3 LCAC Troops: 1,893 + 200 surge capacity Cargo: 22,000 square feet vehicle, 101,000 cubic feet bulk Radar: SPS-48E 3-D air search, SPS-49(V)5 2-D air search, Mk23 target acquisition, SPN-35A air traffic control, SPN-43B air traffic control, SPN-47 air traffic control Fire Control: SYS-2(V)3 combat system, 2 Mk 91 NSSM control with Mk95 radars EW: SLQ-32(V)3 intercept/jammer, Mk36 SRBOC decoy RL, SLQ-25A Nixie torpedo countermeasure, SRS-1 Combat D/F ELINT Aviation: full flight deck, half-length hangar, 2 deck-edge elevators; ~35-40 helicopters and VSTOL Armament: 2 Mk29 8-cell NATO Sea Sparrow, 2 21-cell RAM, 2 20mm Phalanx CIWS, 3 25mm Bushmaster low-angle, 4 12.7mm MG Concept/Program: An improved Tarawa class ship; follow-on to the LHAs and replacements for the LPHs. Properly should have been designated in the LHA series. The secondary mission of these ships is sea control, with SH-60Bs and AV-8Bs. LHD 8 has been added to the program by Congress; it will have gas turbine propulsion and possibly other changes. Builders: Northrop Grumman Ship Systems/Litton-Ingalls SB, Pascagoula, MS. Design: Based on LHA with several changes; 5" guns eliminated, certain command spaces moved from island to hull, docking well and elevators reconfigured, different docking well gate, missiles re-arranged, additional cargo elevators, internal stowage for ship's boats, SRS-1 Combat D/F system.

Tarawa class amphibuous assault ships (5 ships)

Displacement: 39,500-40,500 tons full load Dimensions: 833 x 132 x 26 feet/253.9 x 40.2 x 8 meters Propulsion: 2 boilers, steam turbines, 2 shafts, 70,000 shp, 22 knots Crew: approx. 1,060 Well Deck: 268 x 78 feet/81.7 x 23.8 meters; 1 LCAC or 4 LCU Troops: 1,903 Cargo: 30,000 square feet vehicle, 110,000 cubic feet bulk Radar: SPS-48E 3-D air search, SPS-40E 2-D air search, Mk23 target acquisition, SPN35A air traffic control, SPN-43B air traffic control EW: SLQ-32(V)3 intercept/jammer, Mk36 SRBOC decoy RL, SLQ-25A Nixie torpedo countermeasure Aviation: full flight deck, half-length hangar, 1 deck-edge and 1 centerline elevator; ~35 helicopters and VSTOL Armament: 2 21-cell RAM, 2 20mm Phalanx CIWS, 2 25mm Bushmaster, 8 12.7mm MG Concept/Program: Large carrier-like assault ships, combining the functions of LPH, LSD/LPD, and LKA types, and serving as command ships. Extremely versatile, multirole ships. These ships are aging more quickly than expected, some life-extension work has been done, but replacements are needed. Builders: Litton/Ingalls SB, Pascagoula, MS. Design: Large, bulky design with large flight deck and island; large cargo capacity. The relatively short, wide docking well only provides space for 1 LCAC. Originally had 5" guns at flight deck corners, and Sea Sparrow BPDMS launchers. Fitted with extensive command and hospital spaces

Modifications: There have been some updates, but no comprehensive overhaul/life extension work has been undertaken. All 5" guns and Sea Sparrow BPDMS have been removed from these ships; RAM has been added. The radars associated with the 5" guns were initially retained when the guns were removed, but the radars have now been removed as well. Boat crane, boat deck and several boats are being removed to reduce topweight. Number LHA 1 LHA 2 LHA 3 LHA 4 LHA 5

Although nominally intended to replace LSTs, LKAs and LPDs decommissioned during the 1990's, they will actually replace the existing LPDs and LSDs. The program has been extensively delayed during the design phase. Builders: Northrop Grumman Ship Systems, New Orleans, LA and Pascagoula, MS. Design: Considerably larger than any previous LPD or LSDs; large cargo capability, and major command capability. Stealthy design; designed for lower operating costs, and will incorporate significant new technology. Will have large enclosed composite masts, with radars housed internally. There is provision for a 16-cell VLS, but this will not be fitted. The 30mm Bushmaster turrets are taken from the AAAV assault vehicle.

This design trades docking well size for cargo space. They were designated LPDX during the design stage, but designated LSD when built; should have been numbered LPD 17-20. Builders: Avondale SY, New Orleans, LA.

Design: These ships are essentially identical to the LSD 41 class except the docking well is reduced by 50% in order to increase bulk cargo space by 800%. RAM launchers have been fitted in all ships, and an improved self-defense combat system is to be fitted. Number LSD 49 LSD 50 LSD 51 LSD 52

Builders: Lockheed SB, Seattle, WA (LSD 41-43); Avondale SY, New Orleans, LA (LSD 44-48). Design: Developed from Anchorage class. These are the first diesel-powered LSDs. Have a very long docking well with extensive ventilation to facilitate LCAC operations, and large forward superstructure block. RAM launchers have been fitted in most ships, and an improved self-defense combat system is to be fitted. LSD 47 is testing LPD 17 technologies and "Smart Gator" automation/manning-reduction systems.

These are general-purpose ships and are employed both in groups and independently. LPD 11 of this type was converted to a command ship, AGF 11. Proposed SLEPs were cancelled, but the ships have continued in service; their electronics and combat systems outfit is obsolete. These ships will be replaced by the LPD 17 class. Builders: New York Naval Shipyard; Ingalls SB, Pascagoula, MS; Lockheed SB & Construction, Seattle, WA. Design: Typical LPD/LSD design; superstructure forward, boats, funnels and cranes midships, helicopter platform aft. LPD 7-13 are fitted as flagships; they have an additional bridge level.

All boats have been assigned to Coast Guard operational control, with Navy crews and Coast Guard boarding teams, for homeland defense missions. Although the transfer is officially temporary, it seems likely these vessesl will eventually be permanently transferred to the Coast Guard. In addition, PC 1 was previously transferred to USCG but remains laid up for lack of sufficient crew and operating funds.
