Vice Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Jim Kilby delivers remarks during the USS Beloit (LCS 29) commissioning ceremony in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Nov. 23, 2024. LCS is a fast, agile, mission-focused platform designed for operation in near-shore environments yet capable of open-ocean operation. It is designed to defeat asymmetric "anti-access" threats such as mines, quiet diesel submarines and fast surface craft. They are capable of supporting forward presence, maritime security, sea control, and deterrence. Beloit is the 15th Freedom-variant littoral combat ship (LCS) commissioned in the United States Navy and the first to be commissioned in naval service to bear this namesake.
