SAN DIEGO (May 19, 2017) Divers perform an inspection of littoral combat ship USS Montgomery (LCS 8) as the ship enters dry dock for Post Shakedown Availability (PSA) at BAE Systems Ship Repair facility. PSA is designed to harness results of a thorough test and evaluation period and pave the way to operational employment by the Navy. It is the last availability in the ship construction period and required repairs identified during CSSQT and FCT are made using contractor and program office money.
