It's all ahead full for the nation's third littoral combat ship (LCS), the Fort Worth. Built by the Lockheed Martin industry team at the Marinette Marine Shipyard in Wisconsin, Fort Worth successfully completed Builder's Sea Trials recently in Lake Michigan. The trials included operational testing of the vessel's propulsion, communications, navigation, mission and support systems. The rigorous trial period included maneuverability tests, high-speed runs, power and navigation system checks, rescue boat launch and recovery, as well as many other ship and system evaluations.
