Not sure of the significance of this milestone. Not a shipbuilder. I just pay for it. My question is “So what?” Does it mean you are on schedule? Or “sorry this is all we’ve been able to do”? Maybe give us a true update like when you’ll be able to deliver. Are you on schedule (of course you are… all projects are on time, after each delay is rolled into a new schedule)? How large will the Chinese Navy be when we finally have HMCS Fraser in service? You can use whatever measure of success you want, of course.
In and of itself, probably not that important. It is a small block, & there is a lot (a lot) more to do. But it is a first chunck to be welded to another big chunk, so it is encouraging. & Why not celebrate a 1st? There will be many 100s or 1000s more of these "flips", but hey, a 1st is always special.
I imagine we will see many more of these "1sts" updates.
I feel like that picture is kinda depressing. Thought they'd be further along.
They still have the two CCG AOPS to finish, so this is the third ship in their active queue. There's also lot of pre-production build up required.
