Description
Description — LCS MCM Mission Modules
The Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Mine Countermeasures (MCM) Mission Package (MP) counters bottom, tethered, near surface, and surface mines in the littorals without putting Sailors in the minefield. When the MCM MP is embarked, LCS is capable of conducting detect-to-engage operations (hunting, sweeping, and neutralization) against shallow and deep-water sea mine threats. The MCM MP provides these capabilities through the use of sensors and weapons deployed from an embarked MH-60S multi-mission helicopter and unmanned offboard vehicles. MCM MP achieved Initial Operational Capability in 31MAR2023. The embarked MH-60S employs the Organic Airborne Mine Countermeasures (OAMCM) systems to provide rapid and long range airborne detection and neutralization to clear operations in littoral zones, confined straits, choke points, and the Amphibious Operations Area (AOA) quickly. The Airborne Mine Neutralization (AMN) Module (MH-60S Helo + Airborne Mine Neutralization System) and Near Surface Detection (NSD) Module (MH-60S Helo + Airborne Laser Mine Detection System) achieved Initial Operational Capability (IOC) in FY 2017. The Unmanned Minesweeping (UMS) Module is composed of the MCM Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) and Minesweeping Payload Delivery System (PDS) and Towed Acoustic Generator (TAG). The MCM USV and Minesweeping PDS was previously known as Unmanned Influence Sweeping System (UISS) which achieved Milestone C and is currently in Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP). The Remote Minehunting (RMH) Module (MCM USV with Minehunting PDS and AN/AQS-20C) detects and identifies bottom and tethered mines. In FY 2020, the MCM USV established a mature Technical Data Package (TDP) and was used for the award of the Production contract in FY2022. The Unmanned Influence Sweep System (UISS) TDP is mature and is being leveraged to procure Minesweeping PDS in Q2FY2024 under the Multiple Award Contracts (MAC) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) USV Family of Systems Contract. In FY 2022, the Minehunting PDS will be procured via a sole source delivery order on the Raytheon IDIQ contract. A competitive production contract will be awarded for future Minehunting PDS procurements in Q3 FY2024. The Buried Minehunting (BMH) Module (Knifefish Unmanned Undersea Vehicle) detects and identifies buried mines and mines in a high clutter environment. Knifefish achieved Milestone C in FY 2019 and is currently in LRIP. The Navy is executing transition from a Block 0 to Block 1 capability. In FY 2021, Knifefish awarded a Block 1 retrofit contract that will establish a mature TDP in preparation for its production contract, and upgrade Block 0 LRIPs to Block 1. The Navy will conduct a limited validation of these capabilities during acceptance testing and sell off to the government in Q1-Q3FY24. Upon delivery of these systems to the Navy, they will be available for limited Fleet operations. The MCM MP system procurements in this BLI are critical to deliver MCM MPs with the capability of the full detect-to-neutralize sequence and replace legacy MCM platforms. The MCM MP is deployable and capable of meeting its focused mission requirements on an LCS only when it includes the full complement of Common Mission Modules Equipment (Line Item Number 1600) and the full complement of mission systems that comprise each MCM Mission Package (Line Item Number 1601).

Justification
Justification — LCS MCM Mission Modules
The FY 2026 request was reduced by $0.385 million for civilian personnel to optimize the workforce in compliance with Executive Order 14210, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Workforce Optimization Initiative." FY 2026 funding includes the following mission systems and associated MP support equipment: In FY 2026 the program will procure six MCM Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV), two Minesweeping PDS, two Minehunting PDS, two AN/AQS-20C variable depth Minehunting Sonar and will procure MCM MP support equipment. Additionally, the program will implement Engineering Change Proposals (ECPs) on procured production MCM USVs and perform tech refreshes to address AQS-20C obsolescence. ECPs will also be implemented on both PDS's and Twin Boom Extensible Crane (TEBC). The support equipment includes; USV redesigned Surface Tow Cradles (STC-Rs), USV Stowage Cradles, LCS PMA Table Fixture Devices (TFD), and Peculiar Support Equipment (PSE) kit for USV and UISS. All MCM assets procured support MCM configured ship deployments. System procurements include the limiting factors required to deliver MCM MPs with the full complement of systems needed to perform the detect-to-neutralize sequence. These systems are critical to complete delivery of MPs to replace legacy MCM platforms.

Related awards
Award linkage is shown for 32 of 200 profiled companies — high- and medium-confidence USAspending matches, each row labeled; medium is the weaker evidence. why partial award coverage? →
Rows marked medium rest on evidence weaker than a program-level match, and of more than one kind. An account-based row, where the award drew from the same appropriation account as this program, is an association, not evidence that this program paid for the contract. Where the evidence is instead an FPDS acquisition-program tag or a subaward description, the program is established but which of its budget lines paid is not. An announcement link a recorded review did not leave standing is medium too. Only high rows rest on the contract naming this program with a recorded review upholding it and no recorded rejection or refutation applying.
| Recipient | PIID | Confidence |
|---|---|---|
| BOLLINGER SHIPYARDS LOCKPORT, L.L.C. | N0002422C6305 | high |
| NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATION | N0002415C6311 | medium |

Contractor concentration
No concentration index is published for this line. This line's high-confidence links do not clear the floor for a published concentration index — at least 3 awards across 2 contractor families holding positive obligations, with positive net linked dollars. An index below that floor is a fact about the sample, not about the market. Whatever further links this line carries are medium-confidence, and what each medium evidence path does and does not establish is set out in the methodology. Both bases are in the downloadable warehouse.
