Still, trying to shoehorn SPY-1D(V) and strike lenght Mk-41 cells into a 3500 tonne ship will be interesting, to say the least.

Gibbs & Cox has provided the design for more than 6,000 ships over the past 80 years, including the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, which is currently the work horse of the Navy, and the Perry-class frigates. The company also designed the San Diego-based Freedom, the lead ship in the Freedom-class littoral combat ship program. It did not design the Independence-class LCS ships...

Can't forger this one.
