Incompetent Unaccountable Mismanagement of the Constellation Frigate

The concept, design and construction of the Constellation-class frigate for the US Navy has been mismanaged delaying the ship by years. The Constellation-class frigate, now stands as a symbol of systemic rot in the US Navy and betrayal of public trust on par with the Littoral Combat Ship.

    I think I confused people in this segment 10:38 This is Ship Design completion, not Ship Construction completion. When I say it's not 100% complete, I am referring to the Technical Documents and the ships functional design. Not the Construction of the ship itself. EDIT: We have always had a very positive comment section. Some new members have express surprise at how mature you are. This is uncommon for any online social community. Keep it up.

    Constipation-class: They're pushing as hard as they can, but it just won't come out!

    The Pentagon just cannot resist redesigning existing designs. This is how the procurement budgets get blown out.

    Should be called the Cancellation Class.

    My Art Director, James, has a more complete drawing of the Constellation class Frigate in this thumbnail than the US Navy has after 6 years and $7 Billion dollars spent.

    Money doesn't just disappear, it changes hands. Someone was laughing their way to the bank.
  • @rachelhall4784
    The US Navy only has 270 Admirals! Thats, one for every ship clearly we need more Admirals!

    The Italians build Fremms for about 600 million a piece. Just order from them 10 frigates for 6 billion.

    My buddy who is going theough MS right now lives in a trailer park in a Detroit suberb, before he can have a wheelchair ramp built he must submit an architectural drawing for exactly what the finished product will look like before he can be approved to begin construction. When a trailer park has better checks and balances than the US Navy, something has gone terribly wrong.

    After the LCS being FUBAR, I had hopes for a new FFG. My hopes are going down the drain, fast.
  • @FloofyMinari
    Nothing will change unless people like you and especially the mainstream media expose this to the general public. I'm glad you are making moves to get all this shown to the public.
  • @RedTSquared
    Sad state of affairs. When I was in Uncle Sam's Canoe Club we had a 600 Ship Navy.....now we can't even get a design finalized.....😖

    This video should be sent to every member of the House and Senate.
  • @MileHighModels
    According to the USNI article I read (From May 29), the Constellation went from 85% commonality down to 15%... And the Navy has claimed it's a workforce challenge. After Zumwalt and LCS, you'd think there'd be more competence. Unless it's the same team across all three classes - now there's a nightmare inducing thought.

    The Navy's default attitude to anything seems to be "You can't tell me what to do!"

  • @marcondespaulo
    This level of mismanagement, coming from the same organizations that gave us PERT and CPM is unbelievable. Despite being directly asked to not repeat the LCS fiasco, they are redoing everything the same again.
  • @KaiShanIV
    A billion dollars for a FRIGATE! It was not that long ago that a billion dollars got an aircraft carrier.
  • @Blitz350
    I loved the whole, "LETS DRAW THE FRIGGIN FRIGATE FIRST!" moment. At least I think thats what you were about to say before you stopped yourself! What a disaster!
