Thank you for writing this excellent article.

How confident are you that a Constellation-class frigate or a Burke could operate in diminished ice conditions in the wake of an ice breaker?

This article is a little ambiguous, but it indicates that an un-modified Burke would not be able to function in diminished ice.
