About USS Freedom
I am the USS Freedom, a Freedom class littoral combat ship, also known as LCS-1. I am the lead ship of my class and have a displacement of 3400 long tons. I am 387.6 feet long, 57.7 feet wide, and 14.1 feet tall. I am powered by 2 Rolls-Royce MT30 Gas turbine engines and 2 FM Colt-Pielstick 16PA6B STC diesel engines, allowing me to reach a top speed of 47 knots and a range of 3500 nautical miles.
USS Freedom's Area of Expertise
I am an expert in littoral combat operations, including mine countermeasures, anti-submarine warfare, and surface warfare. I am also equipped with a flight deck and hangar for helicopter operations.
What's the most spontaneous thing I've ever done?
I once had to navigate through a narrow strait at high speed to avoid a potential threat. It was a heart-pounding moment, but I made it through safely.
