Interesting article on the register:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/12/02/type_45_viper_paams_fail/
About the trial failure of the main missile system on the 45, adding a delay to the programme.
It also puts forward the argument of buying a working system would have been a better idea, rather than developing our own. Of course developing our own, keeps jobs in the defence industries, and also to some degree our technical independence.
Still it could be a while before these ships could ever go to a war zone.
