CAVASSHIPS Podcast [Oct 02, 21] Episode 17…”Goodbye LCS?”

Welcome to the CavasShips Podcast with Christopher P. Cavas and Chris Servello…a weekly podcast looking at naval and maritime events and issues of the day – in the US, across the seas and around the world. This Week...the US Navy’s littoral combat ships have begun leaving service, far short of their planned service lives, and more are likely to follow. It’s a remarkable situation, where some ships are being decommissioned even as others are under construction. We’ll talk about some of the issues surrounding what are unquestionably the most controversial ships ever built by the US Navy. And while the height of the pandemic seems to have passed, the implications of increasingly stringent requirements for employees to get the covid vaccine could further effect defense production. We’ll discuss. In this Week’s Squawk Chris Servello on LCS Lessons Re-Learned. Please send us feedback by DM’ing @CavsShips or @CSSProvision or you can email [email protected] or [email protected] .
