USS Freedom LCS-1 Commissioning

[TravisBickle2]

No Phalanx?

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

Unfortunately no, but one of the reps who was there told us that "a close-in gun system isnt needed." Its too small a ship to add a Phalanx to its budget, and thats what it has the RIM-116s for :)

I also hear the LCS family is getting some NLOS PAM missile systems.

[gobears1987]

I'd trust RIM-116 to protect me better than Phalanx anyways.

[TravisBickle2]

@gobears1987

No question RIM116 is top shelf.

But I just love Phalanx throwing streams of lead!

YEA!!

[infobulb]

Being a former military cadet myself, I enjoyed this vid. What saddens me is how the U.S gov is screwing up young men and women the U.S military and wasting their lives in unwanted wars. Tough times are ahead for America.

[seacadet94]

I was in this event because i was a Naval sea cadet

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

cool, what division?

[seacadet94]

Flatley Division in Greenbay it is such a cool program to be in. It gets you in a lot of shape.

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

Sweet! Hey, you guys coming out to Flagship next year?

That is really an awesome picture, I can print in out for you and bring it to next drill. How many copies do you want?

[78majorpain]

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

[CameronMuellerKrouse]

Lol, Yeah I had to set up a lot of chairs :o

[seacadet94]

Hi...i am CADET VanBeek...in ur division

[islandcaptain]

Hey, excellent video! Very well done. Very fine ship... but expensive for its size and armament. Seen her underway around the Lakes a couple times. Looks good. Hope they can build more. Perry's are getting pretty old.

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

Thanks! Yeah, Ive heard the Navy wants 55 LCS projects to go to completion before its all said and done.

[Gundaago]

Apart form the weather, (37 degrees and 17 mph winds) that entire weekend was bad-ass. And you even got pictures of Vander-God.

[HazeGreyAndUnderway]

Haha, yeah it was a COLD day. And yeah, Vander-God destroys all, ahahahaha :D
