Thank you for your service, sir, and that info.
Good to know that something appears to have worked out.
Based on my software experience as a programmer, I get what you’re saying.
I can’t stand when there are “shortcuts” made for the wrong reasons when we’re spending so much money already and we know in advance that we need to handle battle conditions as the norm.
I’m very skeptical of the whole idea of transforming to littoral and backing away from blue water, since transforming back, if need be, can not be done at a moment’s notice. And, IMHO, the military needs to be ready on a moment’s notice.
IMHO, the whole littoral thing is aimed at making our military useful to financial elites who influence our gov’t at the highest levels in their manipulations of revolutions, covert ops in undeclared wars, etc.
Invariably when you focus on something other than your real job, your real job has a way of popping up when you least expect it, and then you’re not prepared.
A lot of the ideas as far as software goes, on this project are being decided on now. The first submarine won’t be completed until 2026. It is estimated that the last one will be in service till 2078. So you can only imagine how that software will contrast to what will be in 2078.
I am not a software guy, but I always found it interesting how the computing technology on a submarine such as a LOS ANGELES Class compared to what we have now.
I will ad that the radio room was always refitted with the best the military could find.
