Were ‘t these supposed to be the ships to replace the Iowa Class?
These party boats couldn’t carry the bullets for the Iowas.
We knew that was never going to happen. The Navy argued the LCS could go “in harm’s way” in the brown water and could provide congressionally required fire support for the Marines. That obviously failed. Then the DDGX program failed. Then the extended range guided munition which also was supposed to fulfill the fire support requirement also turned into another boondoggle. Meanwhile Congress approved the striking of the Iowas.
