General Dynamic's political proxy says the damage is a billion dollars hoping to steal work for Portsmouth, and the Portsmouth's Naval shipyard political proxy says it's $400 Million and we can keep the work here....
Another NCIS tip:
So why doesn't the navy do a reenactment of the start of the USS Miami fire in identical mockup. Make a mock up of the room and the typical materials in the room that was first set on fire...with a identical vacuum cleaner.
Do a identical wielding and cutting operation that was going on in the last moments before the fire, then vacuum up the hot slag or particles up as the first one. Stick the vacuum in the mock up room and hopefully watch the fire start and propagate in the appropriate time.
So why isn't anyone outrage that the navy department set this up, where so many Sailor's and firefighters lives were placed at risk. How come no outrage $400 to a $1 billion has been consumed up somebody's nose. I can think of all the many years the sailors lives that is going to be inconvenienced and the national security submarine missions that is going to be made more fragile when there aren't enough submarines in the first place.
Where is the outrage and why aren't heads rolling...
...All the concerns shown to date are over the survival of the Portsmouth shipyard or if another shipyard will get this new work. It is only the economics and politics that matter in the area.
Our political system is in horrible shape...
We got a monster hidden in the closet...how does a democracy and its people maintain control over such a program as nuclear submarines? How does the people keep control of this program when so much is hidden in military secrets? This is the defense establishment in general. You trust these slimy politicians operating behind closed doors.
The older I get, the ultra highest nation security and national priority has become...is defense jobs, and the profits and power of the defense establishment.
And the media and forth estate is dead to what is in our national interest....the news interest is crippled.
...Honestly, the $400 million dollar repair job is going to be one of the most expensive submarine's ever. How do they value the worth of a submarine, divide the total cost and upkeep by the number of years of operation? Maybe the total cost per100,000 miles? You are not going to get another decade out of this antique pig. All that new equipment is going to have only half its life before the end of sub life. And then new technology are going to make this half used equipment obsolete,. So you can't put this in a new sub. You can almost count on before this it over with, you know the defense establishment, the total cost to get the sub's screws to ever spin in the ocean again is going to double to $800 million dollar. And you're still going to have a obsolete nuclear power plant and propulsion system obstructing the operation of this ship. This ship is going to be in the sitting at the pier or in the yards more than out to sea after 5 years.
They tell me we are in crisis with not enough subs. They are going to put this thing together with duck tape and bailing wire in order to sate the crises. Can you see them all putting on a rush job at the other shipyards to push out defective new subs? They are going to charge big bucks for the rush jobs. Bottom line for the USS Miami, you are going to get a rush job sub with one eighth the capability of the ship going into this ship yard. The defense capabilities are going to be a shell of what it once was...probable a really expensive stand-off platform that can only throw tomahawks and torpedoes at great distances with the sub. This baby is always going to need to be within a hundred nauts of land because of break downs.
Right, you going to get but a shell of a great submarine out in the fleet. This crippled sub is going to save the asses of the Portsmouth's shipyard and the navy admirals...to save the economic interest of a dying and poor Maine. You see what I am getting at, you are placing out side the military establishment's burdens and saving navy brass's asses burdens on the future USS Miami. It is going to hobbly submarine fleet and fleet wide operations in general. You are hobbling the fleet operations to accommodate outside pressures and burdens, mainly distructive political pressures.
