Air Force Brat. Forbin,Jura and one else want to bet on which new ship is ultimately chosen we have 5 designs so please choose one

I'll bite, but give me a one minute presentation on each one,, which Fabulous Frigate?? I like choices, but I'll probably pick the "prettiest one", LOL!

so post a single broadside picture of each one with a little blurb, if you would be so kind, and I will watch the little video?? that we had a couple of posts back....
 
Let me clarify I have some inside knowledge the navy really liked the Fremm so that' what I'm a taking in my bet
if I were you, I'd be careful if you didn't hear just some spin doctoring: now fanbois are supposed to admire nonexistent "FFG(X)", here's what I told you

keep dreaming about some vaporware and in the meantime check this:

about two and a half years ago, inside the USNI News (note the end of September below)
May 16, 2015

... Program Executive Officer for LCS Rear Adm. Brian Antonio ...
Overall, though, he was optimistic about achieving IOC by the end of September.

“We’ve proven that the systems work,” he said.
“Will we have issues every now and then? Yes we will. Some of these systems have been in development a long time, it’s time to bring them together and do the end-to-end run and prove them out.”

(MCM) module will enter testing in 2020, reach Initial Operational Capability on Independence variants by late 2020 or early 2021, and IOC on Freedom variants by late ’21.
so if I were you, I would now recall how the spin doctors praised Mission Modules for years, transformational revolutionazing naval warfare quantum leaps game changers, and if I were you, I would read the USNI News inside Jan 16, 2018 post to see how the USN is now coy about Mission Modules which the spin doctors praised for years

only then I'd think about what "the navy really liked"

Doubt that any non-American defense contractor would get the U.S Navy frigate contract. More than likely it will end up being Lockheed Martin and/or a combination of American contractors. Having said that, is that guy McCain still around on the Armed Services Committee? If he is, then no non-American defense contractor has a chance in hell in winning the bid!!!
