2 Challenges and opportunities Trends to address New concepts for: Offensive sea control Sea based AAW Weapons development Increasing offensive sea control capacity Addressing defensive and constabulary missions Capability and program implications Text

3 In 2001, the Navy planned a new surface warfare approach New family of CG(X), DD(X), LCS Employing Network centric warfare All three ships now cancelled/truncated Navy has an opportunity to implement new surface warfare concept Final specifications for Flight III DDG 51 Concept and design of follow on SSC and modifications to LCS Phased modernization of remaining CGs New weapons and sensors This study proposes a plan focused on: Large and small surface combatants Results possible by mid 2020s

25 Challenges demand a new approach to surface warfare Networked family of CG(X), DD(X), LCS no longer viable Access threats increasing defensive demands on all surface combatants Instability will increase demands for training, cooperation and security Budgets will preclude new designed until 2030s Navy has opportunity to implement a new surface fleet concept Flight III DDG 51 Follow on SSC and modifications to LCS Phased modernization of CGs New weapons and sensors (LRASM, AMDR variants, ESSM Block II, SEWIP) Potential of the National Fleet Surface fleet must refocus on offensive sea control CGs and DDGs equipped and available to defeat enemy platforms Restore ability of SSCs to do escort, training and constabulary missions Restoring the surface fleet s ability to gain sea control, protect noncombatant ships, train allies and partners, and secure sea lanes
