SSC Program Description
Need: Landing Craft, Air Cushion
(LCAC) functional replacement
Platform: Air Cushion Vehicle; same
footprint as LCAC Service Life
Extension Program (SLEP)
Mission: Land surface assault
elements in support of Operational
Maneuver from the Sea (OMFTS),
at over-the-horizon (OTH)
distances, while operating from
amphibious ships and mobile
landing platforms
Distribution Statement A: Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.

SSC Program Requirements
•  LCAC craft inventory (including SLEP) begins to degrade
below the Required Operational Capability/Projected
Operational Environment (ROC/POE) requirement
beginning in 2015
•  Formal requirements provided in Capabilities
Development Document (CDD) with Key Performance
Parameters (KPPs) approved by Joint Requirements
Oversight Counsel (JROC) 10 June 2010
•  Quantity: 73 SSC
−  1 Test & Training (T&T) craft
−  72 Fleet operational craft
•  SSC received the Milestone B Acquisition Decision
Memorandum approval on 5 July 2012

LCAC/SSC Operational Employment
•  LCACs/SSCs transport weapons systems, equipment, cargo, and
personnel of the assault element of the Marine Air/Ground Task
Force from well deck equipped amphibious ships or the Mobile
Landing Platform (MLP) to shore
•  Ships launch LCAC/SSC at distances over the horizon (25 nm or
greater offshore) to prevent early detection of the landing force
•  Synchronized arrival of the equipment embarked on LCAC/SSC is
essential to support the initial assault force
•  Rapid return to the amphibious ships and MLPs to pick up
additional equipment is necessary to support the buildup of
combat power ashore
•  SSC will be able to operate in NATO Sea State 3 (significant
wave height of 4.1 ft), reach a high speed exceeding 40 knots,
transport payloads of approximately 74 short tons, and operate
over-the-beach clearing obstacles up to 4 feet

Air Cushion Vehicle (ACV) Operation
• 
Principles that guide the development and operation of all aircraft apply to ACVs
−  Lift, thrust, gravity (weight), drag; centers of gravity/trim; directional stability
• 
ACVs ride on a cushion of air
−  When not on the air cushion, the LCAC/SSC rides (floats) on a buoyancy box
• 
The air cushion is generated by high volume fans on the ACV that force air downward
under the craft. The air is contained by a flexible “skirt”
• 
Forward motion and directional stability are provided by propellers, rudders, and thrusters
• 
Proper placement of loads on the ACV is critical to the craft being able to get on cushion
and maintain trim
• 
Fuel consumption during operation means the ACV must actively monitor and adjust trim
• 
Operations over land are impacted by terrain, slope, obstacles, and gaps/ditches that
prevent contact of the skirt with the ground, cause abrasion or tearing of the skirt, or
produce debris that is ingested into the engines/propellers/lift fans
