Apparently, the US is going to build a lot more of the Arleigh Burkes. The super-special "Next Generation" DDG-1000 is such a PITA, Congress decided to build something that actually works right, right now. I don't blame them, listening to people talk about that thing at work. And it's supposed to have an aluminum hull and composite superstructure... Fail. It's no stealth bomber, it's a freaking 600ft long, 15,000lb warship.
Working in the guts of a ship all the time would suck. It's loud, hot, noisy, and there are no windows. You get no say in what it does or where it goes, and share a closet with 4-6 other guys. Is it any wonder those guys go bananas when they actually get OFF their tin can?
