The latest progress on the lead ship.

(1440 x 960)

Outfitting progressing nicely.

I wonder what the schedule is for her first sea trial?

 

[Skywatcher]

I'd bet Jan 2019?

 

[Tam]

Maybe the second half of 2018?

I'd bet Jan 2019?

Quite possible!

Jan 2019 for sea trials? that's a long outfitting, I believe sea trials will begin in 2018.
