Dude, all the ships have already been launched, I think.

Lol. But he does have a point though, big navies usually don't let their production lines sit idle for any length of time (as I'm sure you're already aware of).

Maybe they'll place the order some time next year.

Wasn't there a buzz going around about a repeat order of 8 additional FFGs under Project P 17 Bravo?? Here - Listen from 23:17 minute mark.

I was specifically talking about their ground vehicles. The space ships on the other hand, they are some of the most realistic I have seen in any sci-fi setting. Exactly this. PS - Between their definite edge in AI technology over the Covenant and those hilariously OP MAC canons, UNSC should...

Nah, that's even worse than Cold War-era MBTs. Quite honestly, UNSC vehicles in general just suck balls.

Not just tanks in particular but any land vehicle there is.

Ok, so were you contradicting our view or agreeing with it?? Now I'm really confused.

That's precisely what the Jerries tried to do with their tanks in WWII and we all know how that story ended.

So, what's your point??

Sorry, but couldn't catch a single thing of what you said. What are you trying to say??

Absolutely. This practice of placing orders piecemeal needs to be discarded ASAP.

Exactly. Things are definitely moving in the right direction, albeit slower than needed but at least they are moving.

I get all that, but I guess you missed the 'faintest hope' part. It's just a hope—a wild hope at that—but at least it's there; earlier, there wasn't even that. Besides, I meant by the end of the next decade, that's still a good 15 years away, so definitely not in the near future. No arguments...

Hmmm, so there is still the faintest of hope left that we might yet be able to match (or at least come close to matching) the seed of Chinese shipyards by the next decade.

It's just that the number of SAMs at 32 seems too low. A 48 round complement would be more reasonable.
