Okay, call me old school, but having been a Electronics Material officer and Electronics Warfare Officer on a couple ships, I'm skeptical. How will this platform hold up under an EMP attack? How will the electronics hold up...micro-miniaturization in electronics has it's drawbacks especially when operating in the 80-90 degree water of the Indian Ocean, where there are dust storms at sea. Then there is the frigid temperatures of the north Atlantic. Electronic equipment on board ships craps out regularly, and a lot of is CASREPT'd awaiting parts.
BTW, Admiral Zumwalt was the worst Chief of Naval Operations during my 22-year tenure. None of these sailors that are depicted in this video have served under the man, it's obvious. I did, and he was a disaster.
