Italian naval planning receives praise for tying ships to their intended operations and declining tasks beyond those limits. A request to do more should come with the ships needed to carry out the additional work. This keeps operational commitments tied to funded capability. The comparison with French FREMM employment links some differing service experiences to what each navy expects its ships to do. Danish designs also receive praise for meeting their intended requirements.
