A new generation of cheaper and more flexible vessels could be vital in any conflict with China, but the Navy remains lashed to big shipbuilding programs driven by tradition, political influence and jobs.

    Certainly true.

    Right now we have a military that serves the interests of the industrial complex and not the other way around.

    In WWII it wasn’t that way. The government did not have companies that it would be seduced into paying more than a fair value for military equipment
