What I think is that the USN deserves to lose if it ever is forced to face any real naval combat ever again. How the FUCK did NAVSEA become such a pathetic clown circus?

Well luckily we have the same crooked military industrial complex lobbyists to pay off the same politicians that were in charge 6-12 years ago to replace these old new ships with the best of the best at twice the price as before. Its deja vu all over again!
