  1. Joint Power Projection From the Sea BaseEnabling TechnologiesSummary

  2. The Defense Science Board Dirty DozenTwelve Issues DOD Must Address • Management • 1. A Joint Sea Base Program Office With • Meaningful Army and Air Force Participation • Planning • 2. Sustaining Troops Ashore • 3. Protecting the Force Ashore • 4. Counter Threats in Littorals • 5. Concept of Operations at Sea

  3. The Dirty Dozen (Cont.) • New Capabilities • 6. Cargo Transfer at Sea • 7. Long-range Heavy Lift Aircraft • 8. Ships • 9. Communication Architecture • 10. Logistic Support • 11. Inter-theater Lift • Resources • 12. Development speed and funding

  4. Critical Obstacles • Air connectors • - Operational Range • - Heavy Lift to/from Sea Base • Surface connectors • - Sea State 4 transfers • - LCAC fuel consumption • - Unimproved Shore • MPF(F) functions • - Fast load/unload • - Material breakout • - Automated warehousing

  5. Overcoming Air Connector Obstacles • Long-range heavy lift to/from Sea Base unavailable • - CH-53X will help – deployment a problem • - Range/Speed enhancements are most important • - Other options are long-term – i.e. Joint Heavy Lift

  6. Overcoming Surface Connector Obstacles • Transfer rate in Sea State 4 • - Eliminate relative motion • - Load big – unload small • - LCAC shuttle from MPF(F) to HSC • LCAC fuel consumption • - Use HSC as LCAC truck • ` • Unimproved shore • - Deliver material over-the-beach • - Use LCAC as pallet truck

  7. Operational Concept

  8. High-rate LCAC Loading Enabler #1 Stern Elevator Transverse Tunnel (Drywell) Intermediate Transfer Platform

  9. High Speed ConnectorEnabler #2 • Threshold capabilities: • >32 kts, 2000 nm loaded • 3 loaded LCACs + additional cargo/troops • Rapid LCAC launch and recovery • Three loading modes • - LCAC • - Vertical • - RO/RO

  10. Shipboard Automated Warehouse Enabler #3

  11. Benefits of Candidate Solution LCAC offers over-the- Beach capability • Standoff range increased • LCAC advantages retained • HSC serves multiple purposes • Rapid loading • - LCAC on MPF(F) • - HSC via LCACs • Modular container breakout • - Large for loading efficiency • - Small for beach movement • - No TEUs on shore 16 JMIC containers Equal 1 TEU

  12. Overcoming MPF(F) PlatformObstacles • Spiral 0 system integration and sea-trial program • - Commercial platform • - Joint with JFCOM and TRANSCOM • High Rate LCAC loading in Sea State 4 • - Demonstrate promising designs • Automated warehousing • - Demonstrate JMIC capability • - Apply best commercial practices • - Develop and test shipboard handling system
