To choose a new small boat to support the Force Design 2030 idea of scattered maritime operations of smaller units and less concentrated force to evade Anti-ship missiles, the Marine Forces Reserve of the United States Marine Corps is currently sponsoring a Rapid Acquisition competition.
Late in November 2022, Naval News contacted the Marine Forces Reserve for additional details and opinions. Marine Forces Reserve is “actively seeking ways to contribute to Service-level learning demands related to littoral operations, maneuver, reconnaissance/counter-reconnaissance, and tactical littoral mobility and sustainment” as the Marine Corps tries to comprehend how to implement Force Design 2030, according to USMC Marine Forces Reserve.
