Not really evolutionary.<br />But without being designed from the ground up ( Hull, Props ( pump jet :S ), machinery etc etc ) as an ASW asset. Its short help. <br />Better than no help. But I would be really really worried as an LCS sailor doing shallow water ASW actions in a hot peer to near peer war.<br />The best defence for the ship in ASW is that in blue water battle group duty the LCS will simply be passed by for more juicy targets :S<br />Beno<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579907756656776056.post-40728910673707586472015-01-17T21:44:39.469-08:002015-01-17T21:44:39.469-08:00Lessons learned:

Warships, see point 1, are meant for fighting and sinking other ships.<br />3. Navies have warships, see point 2, and thus Navies will actually sink other ships and kill people.<br /><br />With all the above now accepted as a fact it is good to see my fellow Naval Officers decide that means they need weapons to make warships.<br /><br />Has the LRASM been accepted by the Navy as a program of record yet or is still a DARPA project?<br /><br />Because until it becomes a program of record it is not turned over to Dr. Gilmore so we can find out if it actually works.USMC 0802https://www.blogger.com/profile/08575800617871827503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5579907756656776056.post-14562885449109196542015-01-17T07:38:37.740-08:002015-01-17T07:38:37.740-08:00Sounds to me like they are hearing the message fro...Sounds to me like they are hearing the message from the pointy end but are not in any way understanding it. Instead they are providing the same flawed answers after just parrot repeating the complaints like somehow it will be correct this time.
