I hope each is replaced by the Flight III Arleigh Burkes as they go out of service.

They will be. We have commissioned the first and 7 more are under construction. And the Flight III Burkes are significantly more capable than Ticos.

Thank you for that info.

Your use of “Tico” indicates that you were stationed on one of them but I might be wrong.

If construction is delayed, do they still go ahead with scrapping the existing ships?

Can we expedite the rate of replacement to not leave a gap?
