Another example of how slow the new ship is...

THE CUTTERS, BOATS, AND AIRCRAFT OF THE U.S. COAST GUARD
The 154-foot cutters have a speed of more than 28 knots, and are based on an existing patrol boat design from Damen Shipyards.

Too much tech in one direction (drones) opens
vulnerabilities in another direction (naval campaigns).

Once its drones are expended that ship is a sitting duck amongst sharks.
