LCS to test Norwegian missile

USS Coronado (LCS 4) will get a chance at an historic moment in September when it fires the first-ever surface-to-surface Norwegian missile from a Littoral Combat Ship in tests off southern California. Coronado, built in Mobile, Ala., by Austal USA, will test-launch the Kongsberg Naval Strike Missile (NSM) at the Naval Air Warfare Center's extensively-instrumented missile range.
