Strategic Lift Summary Comparison It takes 400 C-17s to do the job of 1 LMSR It takes 54 C-17s to do the job of 1 LPD-17 LPD 17 also provides hospital, C2, well deck and flight deck ship-to-shore capabilities, water production capability, and up to 800 Marines = Cost Compare 1 LPD 17 ~ 54 C-17s 1 LPD 17 ~ $110,760 to Haiti 1 C-17 ~ $22,400 to Haiti 54 C-17s ~ $1,209,600 to Haiti 1 LMSR = 400 C-17s 1 LMSR = $88,140 to Haiti 400 C-17s = $8,960,000 to Haiti 1 LPD 17 ~ 11% of C-17 Cost 1 LMSR < 1% of C-17 Cost
Strategic Lift by Sea is “Green” • Transport by ship is much more efficient than by air and has a smaller CO2 footprint • 1 LMSR = 400 C-17s • 1 LPD 17 = 54 C-17s of cargo plus hospital, C2, and welldeck capabilities • Moving 1 ton of cargo 1 mile by C-17 produces roughly 38 times more CO2 emissions than by LMSR • Sustaining security force assistance activities from the sea reduces the burden on local infrastructure and eliminates or minimizes the use of airlift 21
