I don’t know about install costs, servicing, and the cost of the missiles, etc, but the basic system per ship is way cheaper than I thought —maybe $15 million or something. CHEAP..!

They should buy a system for each ship, I think.

The PRC does have an AEGIS-like system, of course. I heard stolen from us...

Top-heavy aluminum frigates with a single shaft. Crappy design. If they want a good Aegis Frigate, they should look at the Spanish Álvaro de Bazán class frigate

Just because they say they are planning on buying them from us does not mean that Odumbo will let the sale go through.
