Self fulfilling prophecy

We are a decade late for the "In case our planning assumption that 'LCS will work' fails, we need a 'SLEP the FFGs' Branch Plan" - I don't know if this really puts us in much of a worse position - as too much ego, pride, and conflicts of interest are tied up in LCS right now to turn the ship around.

The Obama administration wants lawmakers to increase the tonnage minimum for naval vessels that require legislative authority to transfer to foreign navies, which would allow for the quicker transition of 29 Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates abroad.

We are a POM cycle too late as well to effectively develop a plan to contract build a EuroFrigate as a bridging platform to a domestically built multi-mission Patrol Frigate - so like VMF-221, we will have what we will have.

This whole thing makes me feel like Marvin.

Hat tip Lee.
