A routine fleet review in March 2026 surfaced a number Navy planners are still struggling to absorb. Over the next several years, four aging Ohio-class guided-missile submarines and a dozen Ticonderoga-class cruisers will reach their mandatory retirement dates. When they go, the fleet sheds 2,080 Vertical Launch System cells in one wave. The figure marks the largest concentrated loss of naval strike capacity since the end of the Cold War.
Oh I thought they literally lost that many not that they were close to retirement
I wouldn’t even really be surprised, but considering Usian realities it would be just 2080 missiles that were produced only on paper, but fully paid naturally.
