| 摘要： | Vigor, Seattle, was awarded a 10-year contract from the Army in 2017 to design and build up to 36 new-generation landing craft. The shipyard partnered with BMT to design the Army's new 117'×28'2" aluminum, tri-bow mono-hull maneuver support vessel light, or MSV(L). A prototype was launched in October 2022 at Vigor's marine fabrication facility, Vancouver, Wash. Currently, the Army's objective is to build 13 vessels to replace the landing craft mechanized-8 (LCM-8), a Vietnam-era watercraft that is unable to transport some of today's equipment due to the weight of modern combat vehicles. Main propulsion comes from three MTU 2,600-hp diesel engines, matched to three waterjets. (WorkBoat requested more information, but the Army said it would probably not have any more specifications to announce.) The prototype has a running speed of 21 knots (laden) and more than 30 knots (unladen), a range of 360 nautical miles, and a 4' draft (laden). |
