While I do as well, the final bids aren’t in yet & then there is a lot of work actually needed to read & understand them & make sure its what the navy wants. If you need to ask for changes after its signed because you missed something it starts to get real expensive very quickly.
I like both designs. I wish there was a King Solomon choice where we could split the order in half between the TKMS and Hanwha, with the KSS-III operating in the Pacific/Arctic and the 212CD operating in the Atlantic/Arctic.
I wish we would just sign the contract for all 12 already
