Apparently an Admiral has outed the Zumwalt Class as having no teeth. Why can't the US government realize that if your going to replace something, the replacement should at least be as capable, if not more capable.

Can I run the government for a few years?

Um... I participated on that thread. I just could not find it last night. This article discusses the fact that the ship cannot defend itself apparently, which is very interesting. Why build a ship that is less capable of the ship that its replacing? I also thought it was interesting that critics are saying that this ship ostensibly the arsenal ship repackaged for congress.
