On the other hand, LCS designs have been criticized for their low level of offensive and defensive armaments: A 5-inch naval gun, RIM-116 SeaRAM short range defensive missiles, light short-range NETFIRES missiles, plus any missiles or 70mm rockets carried by its accompanying helicopters (up to 2 H-60 slots or up to 4 MQ-8B Fire Scout UAV slots). Present LCS designs don't even carry torpedo tubes, or vertical-launch systems (VLS) that could accommodate present and future attack and/or defensive missiles.
