Today's Daily Nationalist returns to a familiar topic, the pathetic condition of the US military. Today's discussion will analyze two very expensive but little-known naval failures: the Littoral Combat Ship and the Zumwalt-class destroyer. These were to be the “answer” to China's naval dominance and were touted by the media (even today) as the “navy of the future.” After spending hundreds of billions of dollars, these two programs have been incredibly embarrassing failures, with each ship unable to function at sea. Not one of them was successful and both have been canceled. The Navy continues to shrink (despite massive increases in the shipbuilding budget) because these new ships were so badly designed. Even present, working naval assets are only semi-functional, with the Navy admitting that less than 40 percent of its fleet is combat-ready (which means it's probably like 30 percent). What do these high-tech failures say about the future of the American oligarchy?
