The Ships that Sailed you, Switched from Steam, to EMALS, ... Back to Steam?

I expect the following concerning the new FORD Class CVN and its EMALS catapult from President Trump to get some attention from navalists this week;


As with the LCS and DDG-1000, but perhaps not as bad to a degree, the FORD Class is one of the children of the Transformationalists. As such, it has "challenges" that it shouldn't.

If you want to get a handle of the why and how, there are few better places to get educated on the topic than the interview we did on Midrats with Tal Manvel.

Take some time and give it a listen again.
