Is this a mistake?

Nipplespanner seems to think they were added to FLT II subs at the keel start and FLT I Los Angeles class after the fact. I cannot come up with a clear answer myself....http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2489560&postcount=2 All of this varies with Wiki which states USS Batfish (Sturgeon class) was the first to have the tiles in 1980: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anechoic_tile
