        I was thinking "nice fricken yacht"

He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”

            Looks like they've somehow managed to reinvent the corvette...and called it an "LCS".

              Look at the bright side, given where she was built, at least it wasn't painted green and gold with a giant cheesehead on top of the mast.

                            Not bad looking, but Ruskie ships have a more sharply angled bow, which I like. (is that called "rake"?) Maybe looks isn't important though.
                            I can't help but also wonder how successful the GD design will be. The multi-hull idea seems problematic with internal space, but I admit I am an amature at guessing such things.
