Don't worry, some decade the US Navy will finally build a ship that isn't a Burke. Maybe. In the far future.

I blame @polnikes for this. https://www.reddit.com/r/NonCredibleDefense/comments/1prbo2z/comment/nv0u70m/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

  • Do you know what's really non-credible?

    At this rate, we (Canada/RCN) may build more surface combatants between now and the end of the decade than the Americans. 

    Yeah, we massively overpaid for our River class, but they're being built.

    That would be so funny considering Canada's own track record for procurement and military spending. Getting out played by your own hat.

    Dare I say, that I believe the Ferry of Charon that brings the souls of the dead across the Styx is a Burke?

    That when God gave Noah the plans for the Ark, they were the plans for the Burke?

    That the Klingon Barge of the Dead is actually a Burke?

  • They should just use this design for the frigates. Remove the AN/SPY-6 radar and lower the VLS from 12 8-cell sections to 5 (4 strike length plus 1 exLS for ESSM) and you have a more than decent frigate.
