ICYMI: The LCS Wars Continue

Last week, we published an article by Steven Wills on why the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) is the U.S. Navy’s best option. CDR Salamander did not concur and published his response over at his blog. It is worth your consideration. That back-and-forth was followed by reports that the LCS had trouble fending off a swarm of small fast boats in a test.  Breaking Defense dug into that story some more and our very own Bryan McGrath chimed in at Information Dissemination.

Happy reading!
