Shockingly, engine-makers Rolls-Royce claim the Ministry of Defence did not tell them the 8,000-ton vessels would spend long periods in warm waters so they were not designed to operate in the heat.
Wow. The lamest, most pathetic cop out I've ever seen. Did RR think they were making ice breakers?
Rolls must be dealing with the same managers that seem to be taking over and destroying companies all over.
They've been making stuff for the RN for decades.
