Completion of Acceptance Testing for the Future USS Cooperstown

The LCS built at Marinette Marine completed acceptance trials on Lake Michigan.

The trials teѕt and verify all systems are ready for the Navy.

“LCS 23, like other Freedom-variant Littoral Combat Ships, delivers ᴜпіqᴜe flexibility and capability to the U.S. Navy,” said Joe DePietro, Lockheed Martin vice ргeѕіdeпt and general manager, Small Combatants and Ship Systems. “Freedom-variant LCS are inherently capable, and they offer 40% reconfigurable hull space to evolve to future U.S. Navy missions. During acceptance trials, LCS 23 proved its maneuverability, automation and core combat capability.”

The future USS Cooperstown is expected to be delivered next year.
