Indeed, good coverage. On the down side, sounds like there is much work to be done- even more than all new ships require, especially with EMALS and many uncompleted spaces. Perhaps 4 years until first deployment, although I saw elsewhere this might be whittled down to 3 years if they defer the shock testing to the next hull (JFK).
