Updated Ships in class section is now different compared to before[edit]

Why was the ships in class section changed so drastically? It’s much more messy now and dosent show the block groupings

The old layout was simpler to read and easier differentiate the ship blocks Northstar2770 (talk) 16:13, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It does "show the block groupings"... look at the third column.

The old layout has issues and is being changed across the project. - wolf 02:58, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Complete lack of objectivity in outline[edit]

The first two paragraphs of the article read like they're straight out of a General Dynamics sales brochure. Any objections to editing that to make it more descriptive? NordicRest (talk) 03:17, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to WP:FIXIT. - wolf 17:34, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The costs seem wrong they're not consistent[edit]

Reading the section that lists the cost of the Virginia class it look like it costs $2.8B. But in the text it states the cost is below $1.8B.

I agree this article needs some serious review. Bruce A. WIlliamson (talk) 13:34, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The $2.8B is 2019 dollars, while the $1.8B is from 2009. - wolf 15:26, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
