The Freedom-class littoral combat ship USS Milwaukee (LCS-5) fires an AGM-114L Longbow Hellfire missile during a live-fire missile exercise off the coast of Virginia, May 11, 2018. As the first phase of the Surface-to-Surface Missile Module (SSMM) Developmental Testing (DT) for the LCS Mission Modules (MM) program, USS Milwaukee fired four Longbow Hellfire missiles that successfully struck fast inshore attack craft targets during a complex war-fighting environment utilizing radar and other systems to track the targets.
