The problems of the new weapons systems sound bad, but I recall all the V-22 and F-22 naysayers. They're both expensive, but they're also the best in the world and flying everyday. It's hard to tell when a weapons system under development in is trouble, and when it's just working out its kinks. Compared to past projects, the Ford class isn't all that far outside the projected budget.
