Yep. I know all about them. The Little Rock had to wait half the winter in Montreal because the bit of ice in the St Lawrence was too thick. Designed to be a world fighter yet can’t cruise cross an ocean. Was supposed to be mission changed in a few days yet revised to single mission type because of shot engineering.
Quite the design by committee pushed by politicians.
One of my co-workers just spent 4 1/2 months doing his Navy Reserve duty on a LCS. Said it sailed like crap due to the hull design. And they were doing maintenance ALL the time. Has to sail with a civilian mx contingent....
Wait till you see what happens to our LCS ships in the event of a war with Chy-na.
