Thanks for the article bobbymike

Yes, very interesting notion and concept.
The way I read it, although seemingly light on for troop numbers x75, this expeditionary unit appears to have some firepower in the way of LAV's (or equivalent).
Saying this, I'm sceptical of it's principle armament being a 30mm Bushmaster of sorts, whether manned or remote operated. I'm with you bobbymike in some form of multiple launch rocked system (not necessarily something as longe-ranged as HIMARS) or at least a 57mm gun mount to support opposed landings.

P.S. couldn't help notice the helo in the given Light Amphibious Warship Concept. Any idea of its type?
