My bad, I meant design or should i say put together a ship
based on bits from here, there and everywhere.

Why can't we just buy the US Ship, lock, stock and barrel ?
We are using the Aegis system, probably more than a few
US Missiles, why try to fit this into a different hull when
the US has already worked most things out already.

If they are good enough for the US Navy, why not our Navy ?

Are our roles and tasks that different ? We seem to be patrolling
the same waters in the Gulf and doing the same job.

I'm being a bit of a devil's advocate here, nothing more.
