8:40- I wonder how it would handle if they sent it to the Red Sea to protect shipping from houthi boat attacks? Seems like a pretty good testing ground for them there is all I'm saying...
@@frederickrimler8153 are they directly better or worse than the houthi boats was the question; the fact that they suck in open ocean combat vs bigger ships is irrelevant. That's why I said it seems like a good testing place
10:40 Mark! 549 Views + Mine! 😎 Thumb Up #100! You're welcome, and thanks! 😊 Notes: I haven't seen the video that you reacted to, and also, you're the first two who I've seen react to it. 😊 Sigh. Early on, he says "class" when he meant "type"! 😮 He used "littoral" in such a way as to suggest that we all know what the word means! I had never heard the word or read about it before these two ships were invented! 😁😮 As someone who has been hit on my arms and face by ejected gun shells, I'd to see what happens when a big shell hits something! The engineers should design boxes for the shells to be collected in and then the shells can be recycled rather than left behind as litter! 🧐 Hmm. These seem like vessels meant to interact with the "USCG". 🤔
2 class of ships are garbage. They both were given to the navy with a propolson system issue across all ships in both classes and never discussed on this video. And at half a billion dollars each is a waste of tax payer money.
Utterly USELESS ships! The entire program was a stupid waste of money. Too small, too lightly armed, and, with too little range to be useful in combat. We should've spent the billions we flushed away on those tubs updating the Perry Class frigates.
Or purchased Istanbul class frigates from Turkey. It might not have helped out our economy, but would have helped out their economy. At about $300 million per vessel it would have been cheaper too.
