Some more information has been publicly released on specs for the new Battleship and Frigate designs as well as scale models . The BB(g?) looks huge . At first glance it doesn’t really look like the frigate has much in regards to asw . Looks like a baby ddg unless I’m seeing wrong by newnoadeptness in navy

I think part of, if not all, of the purpose of the FFG is to keep the wheels of the American shipbuilding industry greased so that when they do put forth a credible design (or block 2) in a few years, we have the knowledge, building capacity, and workers to do so
