USS Boxer having to return to port after MONTHS of delays and more maintenance issues.

Troubled USS Boxer Returns Home 10 Days into Deployment Due to Maintenance Issue
The maintenance-embattled USS Boxer is heading back to San Diego just 10 days after deploying due to an engineering issue, as first reported by USNI News and confirmed to Military.com by Navy officials.
Sailing as the big deck, or lead ship, of its amphibious ready group, the Boxer had already been delayed by months when it deployed April 1. Its return further comes on the heels of an announcement by the Navy's top leader earlier this week that the service is investigating the ship's prolonged maintenance issues.
"USS Boxer is returning to San Diego to undergo additional maintenance in support of its deployment in the Indo-Pacific region," Lt. Cmdr. Jesus Uranga, a spokesperson for the Navy's 3rd Fleet in the Pacific, told Military.com in an email.

one thing I have learned in the Maritime industry is how ever long they tell you it will take to repair multiply that by 3 and then add two weeks. Then expect 2-4 breakdowns after being fixed.

As long as more unskilled queers and women of color were on the assembly line, it's a small price to pay for progress.

The Navy is in bad shape.

“Diversity is our strength.”
They’ll likely blame it on the spokesperson named “Jesus.”

That’s what happens when promotions are based on arse-kissing instead of merit.

Some people on here think we could defeat Russia and China in a war.
LOL

Geesh - what an embarrassing shite show…

As the technological complexity increases, the reliability sometimes suffers,
….. as is particularly the case when managing supply-chain disruptions and budget shuffling.
Are these maintenance issues related to design flaws? … anybody know?

Sad. My first command in the Navy - fond memories and she was in pretty good shape. NASCO, life cycle funding, Govt contracting, incompetence etc.. What a mess.

This with the current Boeing parts & maintenance issues seems problematic.
Or am I just being hyperbolic?

The Russian navy is a mess, too. China is the real threat.
