Too late to back out now. Too much has been invested already. Have to forge on and hope they can get a handle on the cost overruns. Who am I kidding here? link |

Same article played on various sites with same error, even, "Nimitz's A4B reactors", not, they are A4W's in the Nimitz class. |

Too big to fail? Quite so. It would appear the Military-Industrial-Congressional Complex has learned its lessons well. Expect all future such programs (F-35, Ford class carriers, etc.) to hold taxpayers hostage in similar fashion. |

First-in-class always has a lot of overruns coming from "well, crap that didn't work right, gotta tear it apart and rebuild it!" It's even more pronounced here because of new reactors, catapults, and arresting gear. |
