The Navy couldn't organise a chook raffle. They can barely crew or maintain half their fleet now. Refits are continually way overschedule and over budget. They cannot retain the few well trained people that they do have and all they are left with is the dead wood.
So what do they want to do? Buy even more complex and large platforms that they will be unable to crew and maintain to any decent standard.
They'd be better off filling up a couple of hercs with $100 notes and dropping them all over South East Asia to keep the neighbours onside!!
If the Navy were an airline they'd be grounded. To be fair though, They probably work OK when their being shot at!!
