Scott Pratt, program manager for LCS fleet introduction and sustainment, said during the event that LTF will house three Independence-variant integrated tactical trainers comprised of a full mission bridge, a combat system trainer, a bridge wing trainer and a mission package trainer, according to an article published Monday on the Navy website.

Capt. Bill McKinley, CSCS commanding officer, noted that multiple Navy organizations and industry partners have collaborated to establish the LCS training hub.
