Austal press release

Austalโ€™s west coast operations team will perform the work in Seattle, Washington, with it scheduled to be completed by September 2020.

โ€œThe fact weโ€™ve received our third LCS post shakedown availability contract in less than 11 months is a testament to our services team and the great work theyโ€™re doing to support the Navyโ€™s small surface combatant fleet,โ€


Craig Perciavalle, president of Austal USA

As the number of Austal-built ships in the fleet continues to grow, the company is expanding its west coast operations in San Diego and its Asia-Pacific operations in Singapore to meet the Navyโ€™s current and planned deployments of small surface combatants and Expeditionary Fast Transports.
