230314-N-ZS023-1096 SAN DIEGO (March 14, 2023) Cmdr. Michael Tyree, right, commanding officer of the future Independence-variant littoral combat ship USS Canberra (LCS 30) Blue crew, speaks with Vice Adm. Mark Hammond, AM, Chief of Navy, Royal Australian Navy, in the ships mission bay, March 14. Littoral Combat Ship platforms operate on a blue/gold crew model, enabling ships to remain forward deployed for extended periods of time. Littoral Combat Ships are fast, optimally manned, mission-tailored surface combatants that operate in near-shore and open-ocean environments, winning against 21st-century coastal threats. LCS integrate with joint, combined, manned and unmanned teams to support forward-presence, maritime security, sea control and deterrence missions around the globe.
