Littoral Combat Ship LCS 11 Sioux City Side Launch

The U.S. Navy's 11th littoral combat ship, the future USS Sioux City, launched sideways into the Menominee River in Marinette, Wisconsin, on January 30. Ship sponsor Mrs. Mary Winnefeld conducted the time-honored tradition of christening the ship by smashing a bottle of champagne across the bow.

[@chobbybeeseburger]

Wonder if this one is going to break down too?

[@Dirk_Dandy]

+majorbucko Everything before 9 was essentially a prototype, so I really hope not. The break downs are mostly due to human error rather than ship design. Milwakee had some issues in the ship yard and Fort Worth had some issues with proper maintenance.

Por mais que seja um lindo espetáculo e tenha uma engenharia por trás disso tudo, ainda acho muito perigoso este tipo de lançamento de navio.
