Britain's New £1Bln Warships Breaking Down Because of Engine Troubles
The six destroyers of the British Royal Navy costing over a billion pounds each keep breaking down, the BBC reported.
The warships regularly face failures of the electrical systems caused by power-hungry generators, according to sources from the Royal Navy. Running all systems simultaneously can simply de-energize a vessel, leaving it with no power to operate and take part in a combat.
The problem first arose when the engine of the warship Dauntless failed during exercises in 2014.
