LCS, Littoral Combat Ship Vessel

The anti-submarine module will have its focus changed from stationary systems to en-stride systems (while the ship is moving) that are useful in the open ocean as well as in coastal areas. One of the items to be added is a "torpedo detection capability" so that the ship can know when it is under attack.
- Mine countermeasures module
The mine countermeasures module also continues to have ongoing issues, with Rear Admiral Frank Pandolfe reporting dissatisfaction with the performance and looking to replace it with a modified airborne laser mine detection system. The revised contract for the Airborne Mine Neutralization System was awarded to Raytheon in 2012.
The MH-60S was to be used for mine clearing from the LCS, but testing has found it lacks the power to safely tow the detection equipment. This mission is to be assigned to some sort of robotic boat instead.
