Not with our DoD contractors’ current level of competence and security measures, we won’t.

Not asking rudely, but why do you say that?

Having worked on both sides, it is government's fault. The way they write the contracts, their laziness, lack of supervision, and inability to hold people and companies to performance.

Contractors are in it for money, so performance isn't the issue.

"Defense companies say the coordinated buildup among allies is also an opportunity for Western allies to build a common warship."

What we need to do is replicate in shipbuilding the great success we're having in aircraft design with the F-35.

We need one ship that can, with minor adjustments, serve multiple purposes: as a destroyer, a minesweeper, a battleship, an aircraft carrier, and a littoral close support craft.

What great savings in costs and time to deployment we will reap!
