Keep telling yourself that, and maybe you'll really believe it.

Well I been aboard several of the modern DDGs (have listed in other threads) and the older BB's (3 to be exact and all Iowas) and the kevlar used as a muti armor scheme used aboard them will no where match the class a and class b armor of a BB. Those DDG's are built for the offensive mode more rather then defensive one when it comes to the protection outside of the 5" guns and missles and any man here that knows armor or knows ships knows I am speaking the truth. Just ask I can run you a list of names here that would certainly agree beyond doubt.
