The U.S. Navy is reviewing the design and costs of the Ford-class aircraft carrier, one of its most high-tech and expensive warships, and the service's top boss is not ruling out canceling future versions of its design.
The review, which should be complete next month, was “a prudent and practical" move aimed at examining “the costs of the designs and the systems to make sure that they make sense and they have all the systems and requirements that we want going forward,” Navy Secretary John Phelan told reporters Tuesday.
