MARINE CORPS BASE HAWAII — <\/span><\/p>\n

U.S. Marines with 3d Marine Littoral Regiment, 3d Marine Division, formally received the Navy-Marine Expeditionary Ship Interdiction System (NMESIS) \u2013 a mountable, ground-based anti-ship missile launcher \u2013 on November 26, 2024. In order to commemorate the intra-service hand-off and acknowledge the months of initial operational testing and evaluation that went into fielding the new weapon system, 3d MLR held a receiving ceremony and NMESIS static display at Dewey Square on Marine Corps Base Hawaii and invited distinguished visitors from across both U.S. and partnered militaries to take part.<\/p>\n

“Upon receipt of the NMESIS weapon system, 3d MLR has an enhanced sea denial capability and is positioned at the forefront of strategic transformation. This addition deepens naval integration and strengthens deterrence by providing coverage from coastal positions, extending the Joint Force\u2019s ability to target and engage from both land and sea.” said Lt. Col. Timothy W. Love, Commanding Officer of 3d LCT<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The NMESIS will be owned and operated by Marines with the Medium-Range Missile Battery. This formation is a component of 3d MLR\u2019s infantry battalion, 3d LCT. Marines with 3d MLR\u2019s Fire Support Coordination Center will ultimately be responsible for integrating the NMESIS battery, via the Maritime Dynamic Targeting Process, leveraging the unit\u2019s maritime and air domain awareness into Naval and Joint operations in the Indo-Pacific theater.<\/p>\n

Col. John G. Lehane, Commanding Officer of 3d MLR, emphasized the importance of the NMESIS capability, stating, \u201cMoving the NMESIS from the category of Initial Test and Operational Evaluation to a fielded weapon system is a significant milestone for 3d MLR. The NMESIS provides this Regiment a potent sea denial capability in support of our mission essential task to \u2018Attack Enemy Maritime Targets.\u2019 That capability greatly enhances the Regiment\u2019s ability to support and integrate with the Marine Air-Ground Task Force, the Fleet, the Joint Force and our Allies.\u201d<\/p>\n
