The LSC will never float anyways. We'll just continue to build Burkes. Columbia, Ford-Class CVNs and Virginia SSNs will eat all of the Navy's shipbuilding budget. 2020-2030 is going to be a hard time for the USN.
- DuskStar 7y agoI'd add the FFG(X) frigate program in there too, but that'll probably just end up taking the place of a few Burkes.
- greedo 7y agoI think we'll see FFG(X). Odds are the shipyards building the execrable LSC will win the contract, and the Congresscritters will want to keep those jobs going. Depending on the chosen config, the FFG(X) might end up being a good vessel; we'll need lots of them.
