Description

Description Maneuver Support Vessel (MSV)

The Army Watercraft Systems (AWS) provide a family of Maneuver Support Vessels (MSV) that support Dynamic Force Repositioning (DFR) by providing the Combatant, Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) and Joint All Domain Operations (JADO) Commanders with the ability to access multiple entry points via littorals and inland waterways (waterborne corridor) in order to sustain forces within an anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) bubble. The Maneuver Support Vessel (Light) (MSV(L)) is the Army's first digital architecture vessels (with improved draft, speed, and payload) and critical modernization efforts in support of the Army's Watercraft Systems Transformation Strategy (AWSTS). MSV(L)s will provide Surge, Precision and Dispersed Logistics to move and maneuver tailored forces, combat ready troops, platforms, equipment, and supply bulk fuel and water across the full spectrum of operations. MSV(L)s mitigate A2/AD threats by providing access to shallow coastal waters, rivers, in narrow inland waterways in support of dispersed force elements in austere environments and where mature ports or road networks are unavailable. The MSV(L) provides upgraded capabilities such as higher operational speed, reduced draft and increased payload to support expeditionary movement and maneuver of tailored forces and combat power to mitigate the A2/AD operational environment. Capable of delivering a combat configured Abrams, or two Strykers or two Bradley Fighting Vehicles along with critical sustainment missions including delivery of bulk food, water, fuel, and ammunition. MSV(L) is the first modernization program which will displace the Army's aging Landing Craft Mechanized-8 (LCM-8) class of vessels. The LCM-8 does not have the speed, functional draft (shallow water capability), interoperability, or maneuver capability to move today's Army Maneuver Platforms. This program is associated with the Army Transformation Initiative (ATI). The high priority MSV(L) is a low-density system with an Army Acquisition Objective (AAO) of 13. The AAO will be fulfilled via the ten-year base contract plus a five-year extension.

Justification
