Little larger than 3500 tons.


Looks huge in the video, but small by US Navy standards. 45 knots, though.

The littoral combat ship (LCS) is a class of relatively small surface vessels intended for operations in the littoral zone (close to shore) by the United States Navy. It was "envisioned to be a networked, agile, stealthy surface combatant capable of defeating anti-access and asymmetric threats in the littorals."

If ya really want to know:

The Navy missed an opportunity for a historical reference here. Wichita's biggest contribution to the Navy (aside from Mariners) has been airplanes... including the F-18 Superhornet. The next USS Wichita should have been a Carrier. (First USS Wichita was a battle cruiser)

I've never seen a Naval vessel launched, so I thought this was a joke video when I saw what looked like the ship falling over sideways. At any rate... Go Army, Beat Navy.

Smaller. It's about the same length as the older DDs. My old DD-781 was 377 feet long and weighed in at 2,235 tons. The DL (frigate) that I served on was 564 feet long and weighed in at 9,150 tons. But then it had two nuclear reactors.

I still can't get used to the new naming convention. Yeah, I'm old school and don't like it. But then, no one asked my opinion.

Operating simplicity, robustness and fuel economy compared to most other propulsion's. They won't go away from nuclear for subs and carriers. With carriers, it makes more sense to go nuclear. And the added space is used for more aviation fuel. In the case of subs, I suspect they can get another missile in there too.
