Like you said, it all depends on the timeline.
For the USN, it depends on if they push for earlier deployment of additional Burke-class destroyers, then case can be argued that the will release the Adams-class, if only to free up trained crew and remove an older, less capable system.
As for the Knox-class, I'm undecided on this, true the Knoxes are as old as the Adams, but were always intended as cheap convoy escorts. With the decision to not build any more Perrys, the case can be argued that the Knoxes will be maintained on the Navy's list.
An interesting thought is if Greece bought ships from Israel, South Korea, maybe even Japan.
