Earlier gas-turbine destroyers and LM2500 adoption

Would earlier gas-turbine Charles F. Adams-class ships have made the US Navy adopt the LM2500 much sooner?

They would have made the transition more familiar, but adoption still depended on when the LM2500 became available.

A navy already operating gas turbines would have trained maintainers, procedures, and confidence that made the next system easier to accept. The technology timetable remains decisive, however, so predecessor ships could smooth rather than dramatically accelerate the transition.
