Abstract

The article reports on the completion of sea trials of the USNS Montford Point (MLP-1), the first of the U.S. Navy's Mobile Landing Platforms, which are designed to boost logistical operations at sea while reducing dependence on foreign ports. Captain Henry Stevens, the program manager for strategic and theater sealift, said the ship performed well and MLP 1 will help transition the Navy toward better modularity and operational flexibility in its ships.
