From what i have read, the new non-carrier ships are gonna be some enhanced version of Arleigh Burke class destroyers, with provisions for lasers *pew* pew* and nuclear missiles *boom* *boom*, displacing some 30.000t maybe. Wile arguably being more "powerful" than any previous "battleship", they are certainly not gonna be bigger. Cant wait for his reaction when former Fox-host will tell him about Yamato, Bismarck ....and Iowa .
I am so sorry for you. Your country is clearly being ruled by a big child, a megalomaniac one. The more i see and hear about him, the more i think he is very, very dangerous, to all of us.
"Golden Fleet", gimme a break
Ah, gotcha. Yeah, there's so many reasons why this "battleship" will never get built -- lack of slipways, weapons that aren't actually functional, that whole drone issue, the need for more smaller platforms in order to spread combat power, and so on. It's a pipe-dream and even if Congress releases the funds, which they won't, it will get cancelled at great waste.
This is meant to be a monument to Trump's ego.
