One proposed LCS change is to keep its speed requirement below 40 knots. For Zumwalt, the suggestion is to remove railgun ambitions and consider retaining the Advanced Gun System as a separate programme. That proposal remains tentative, including whether and how AGS should continue. The Ford-class proposal identifies waste handling as the subsystem whose engineering responsibility should change. These are a participant's preferred changes, rather than a technical reconstruction of how the programmes developed.

Proposed changes to LCS, Zumwalt and Ford
The proposals limit LCS speed, reconsider Zumwalt's gun ambitions and change responsibility for Ford's waste-handling design.
