The new ship carries the Griffin missile. (a whopping 13 lb warhead. The weak love child of a Hellfire and an 82mm mortar. 12 mile range!)

Only if you can get the LCS up to 30,000ft altitude. Surface launch it's 3(and a half)miles.

Thin hull cracks so easily it would make a spectacular target, LCS is little more than that.
