This presents many challenges as well as opportunities. This not a unique situation as many maritime countries have struggled with this matter over the past 50 years. The question that quickly arises is whether a country should design and construct new naval ships themself or follow one or a combination of the many options that have been used over this period. This presentation will review these options as both challenges and opportunities and hopefully provide a starting point for important discussions of this subject.</p>}, number={13}, journal={Ciencia y tecnología de buques}, author={Lamb, Thomas}, year={2013}, month={Jul.}, pages={23–36} }
