Proper evolution requires strong leadership

Some important words from G.


"If during this decade, 2011 - 2020, the US Navy is unable to significantly evolve ASW for surface forces, I believe the entire force structure of the US Navy will change dramatically as large quantities of high quality and expensive aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyers, and big deck amphibious vessels become indefensible as investments for seapower in the face of the growth and much improved capabilities of the global submarine force."

I don't see the U.S. Navy evolving ASW significantly. First of all, one would have to have real visionary leadership; which is not present.
