control systems, provide superior

survivability.

The SCS provides the navies with

eet modernization that addresses

emerging threats well into the 21st

century. It enhances any navy’sability to perform critical missions,

protecting national sovereignty and

infrastructure, providing homeland

defense, and maritime support to

allied nations.

The Surface Combat Ship (SCS) is

the next generation surface combatant

for international navies based on the

proven Freedom Class LCS hull. The

SCS delivers maximum repower to

meet current and future operational

requirements.

At 118 meters in length,

and approximately 3600 ton

displacement, the SCS provides

proven state-of-the-art Anti-Air, Anti-

Surface, Anti-Submarine, Electronic

Warfare, and Special Operations

support capabilities. The SCS is a

high speed, highly maneuverable

combatant capable of operating both

in open ocean and near coastlines in

high sea state conditions.

The SCS design utilizes the latest

U.S. Navy technologies allowing

interoperability with U.S. and

allied naval forces to participate in

joint and coalition operations. The

The ship and its combat system are

designed to provide multi-warfare

capability, operate in shallow water or

deep ocean, in all weather conditions.

The SCS possesses unique operating

features including the most capable

combat system available in the world

today, the Aegis/SPY-1F(V) radar

and the MK 41 Vertical Launching

System (MK 41 VLS) with the SM-2

and ESSM missiles. The system is

combat proven with more than 3800

successful missile rings. The ship

has an inherent capability

to support special operations due

to its stern ramp design, high

speed propulsion system, and

extra large ight deck. Responsive

maneuverability is a key feature

designed into the ship offering the

ability to turn about its own axis and

stopping within two to three ship

lengths from top speed. Leveraging

the latest U.S. Navy technology

allows the SCS to operate at speeds in

excess of 35kts in shallow waters.

Survivability and crew protection

has been a major factor in the design

of the SCS by the introduction of

a highly effective Aegis combat

system, and integration of state-of-

the-art automated damage control

systems. The SCS incorporates the

latest U.S. Navy damage control,

casualty control, and robust re

ghting capabilities. The re ghting

systems are integrated with a state-

of-the-art automated damage control

and monitoring system ensuring high

survivability.

The enhanced warghting capabilities

of the SCS, based on proven Aegis

technologies, provides the ship

commander with the ability to engage

and defeat any threat that may be

encountered. A warghter is provided

with a continuous comprehensive

tactical air and surface picture

obtained through multiple sensors

including the Aegis radar. Anti-

air warfare defense consists of the

SM-2 and ESSM missiles, Close-In-

Weapon-System (CIWS), a medium

caliber gun. Anti-submarine warfare

is conducted using a variety of

optional sensors to include the MH-

60 dipping sonar, hull mounted or

towed array sonars. The proven anti-

surface warfare capability consists of

Harpoon missiles, CIWS, a medium

caliber gun, and four 50 cal machine

guns, MH-60 helicopter with the

Hellre missiles. Low signature

topside shaping further reduces theships radar cross-section.

The SCS provides exibility for

special operations through an

oversized helicopter landing deck and

unique stern boat launching facility.

Command and control capabilities

are provided by the Common Radio

Room suite and state-of-the-art

combat information center.

The SCS superstructure and combat

system software were designed to be

easily adaptable to new and future

technologies. For example, the MK

41 VLS is adaptable to future missile

types, the SPY-1F(V) radar structure

is designed to be adaptable to the nex

generation radar, while the stern ramp

allows for retrieval of future special

operations vehicles.

Superior maritime surveillance by

the SCS is accomplished by means

of its long range air surveillance

capabilities, high speed, latest

communications and data links, helo

and small boat support.

The SCS program has been designed

to optimize navy and industry

participation throughout its 30 plus

year operational life cycle.

The SCS, utilizing the latest U.S.

Navy technology, provides a best

value solution and unprecedented

warghting capability.
