Adaptability (Flexibility): Ships built with the ability to accept mission systems/equipment that can be removed and replaced pier-side, in a short period, to adapt a ship's capabilities to a specific mission Modularity: Ships built with common design interfaces and modular components that reduce the complexity of adding, adapting, and modernizing capabilities Commonality: Ability of hardware/software combinations to be increased or decreased in size to match the capability requirements of different sized ship platforms without sacrificing performance Scalability: Capabilities developed independently of ships using standardized design specifications which allow the same systems, at various scales, to be applied across multiple ship platforms.
