True and LCS stands for Littoral Combat Ship It was specially designed to fight along the shores of Iran. We built 35 at over $500 million each! The bad news? They are worse at clearing mines than the Avenger class and they are even worse at littoral combatโฆ so they got pulled
@ProfTalmadge These are the last of the four Avenger class mine countermeasure ships being heavy lifted from the Persian Gulf earlier this year. Now there are three Independence class LCS with minesweeping module fitted, but untested in combat.

@AutumnTweets These are the four that were stationed in the Middle East and they were deactivated several months ago. There are no Avenger-class in the Middle East. There are 2 or 3 Independence-class LCS that sort of have mine clearing capabilities currently in the Middle East.

#OTD in 1944, Japanese forces assaulted U.S. airfields during the Bougainville counterattack. This TBF Avenger took nearly 400 shrapnel hits but was patched up and ready to fly the next day. The counterattack was ultimately repulsed by Allied forces.

You don't know much about mines @mercoglianos Those Avenger-class minesweepers being cited are mostly being retired. Modern mine clearing relies far more on helicopters, unmanned vehicles, and modular systems deployed from other ships. Thatโs the good news. The bad news:
Everyone...there is no need to panic about mines. The US Navy has kept four mine countermeasure vessels in the Persian Gulf for the past 35 years. These ships and crews have trained for this very circumstance. WAIT...what is that? The minesweepers just arrived in
