Summary

181118-N-YP246-0301
ATLANTIC OCEAN (Nov. 18, 2018) The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Mason (DDG 87) launches a Standard Missile-2 Block IIIA. Mason is underway with Norfolk-based cruiser-destroyer (CRUDES) units from Carrier Strike Group 12 conducting a Live Fire With a Purpose (LFWAP) event. LFWAP is a reinvigorated missile exercise program designed to increase fleet lethality and tactical proficiency. It provides the surface warfare enterprise an opportunity to examine the human, system and tactics, techniques and procedure performance with an eye toward rapid increases in tactical proficiency, crew confidence, and lethality.
