"Bring back corvettes, destroyer escorts and patrol boats."

They have their role in small numbers...the Brown Water fleet.

But right now we don't have enough Blue Water platforms.

Just patrolling the Western Pacific, showing presence and deterrence, is problematic.

A squadron of Corvettes each in Subic, Yokosuka and Bahrain would be quite useful.

MAYBE another in the Med somewhere.

Right now the only options a commander has to keep a presence is a 10,000 ton "Destroyer".
