Description
Description | The Constellation-class frigate program was a US Navy shipbuilding project involving the construction of frigates by Fincantieri Marinette Marine. Initially awarded a $5.6 billion contract in April 2020, the program faced years of delays and design changes. The Trump administration canceled the program, with only two frigates currently under construction to be completed, and four to twenty more planned frigates not to be built. The cancellation impacts jobs in Marinette, Wisconsin, and raises concerns about national security and the US Navy's ability to counter China's growing naval fleet. |
