The Navy is already curtailing the LCS and has all but admitted they were a failure. This FFG(X) program is the Navy running a crash program to get frigates. The destroyer part of the fleet is a much larger problem because all destroyer development resources went into the Zumwalts, and those at this point are more than a little failure. Again, we don’t have a different design ready to go and we can’t afford more Zumwalts (not just in terms of money either).

Keep building Arleigh Burke's then. They just work.
