This is so sad . . .

These are some of the worst “combat” platforms ever made for the USN.

Fragile.

Hideously expensive.

Toothless.

“Littoral” which means stylish and trendy.

Worthless against any modern naval or air power.

Worthless when operating with a carrier group.

Worthless when operating with an amphibious group.

When the true history of these toy boats is revealed there will be graft, corruption, malfeasance, and idiocy discovered.

A total waste of American money. Which also serves to help further emasculate our navy.

I confess when I saw the words "next generation warship" I thought Zumwalt class, not LCS.
