Modifications to the previous force structure [Link]
Trying to give you one more surface combatant...
See if can find space in the matrix constraint to build one more combat ship to make a total of ten...
No promise ;-)
These ten combat ships of 6000 tonnage will form two squadrons. A BMD (Ballistic Missile Defence) squadron and a Combat Ship squadron.
Somethings gotta give - To maintain a sustainable growth in manpower planning, the JMMS will not have the full combat defensive capability of the light aircraft carrier as previously planned [Link]. Thus advance combat weapons and systems' crews will not be required to staff across the two JMMS. This resource can then be channelled to manned the additional combat ship. The JMMS will retain a basic ship defence capability in line with her missions geared towards humanitarian support and relief.

| One more surface combatant for the Air-Sea Defence Task Force |
Building a five ship squadron across the force structure will help to streamline planning, operations, logistics and training in the combat flotilla. Whereas the littoral mission vessels are built and organised for different roles, thus an eight ship squadron structure is retained. Though it will be a dream to have ten of the LMVs, organised in two squadrons of equal ship numbers as well ! Remember, trying to plan within constraints... while we are at it, why not throw in one more submarine to make a total of six, a 2-by-2-by-2 force structure. Wow, get a hold of yourself !
