"No wet navy" obviously doesn't include the German and Danish navies,
since they already have a number of modular warships in operation. IIRC
the USN plans to make its DD21 class modular, and there are a bunch of
other navies having the same idea as well.

It hasn't been used *earlier*, simply because it has been too hard to
build robust module interfaces. It *is* being done *now* however, and I
think it's a rather safe bet that it will be done even more in the
future.
