>>64666175How's your water-filled missile gonna fare against them?
>>64666152Wouldn't most modern ASMs be relatively useless against something as heavily armored as a WW2 era battleship? I suppose if nothing else they'll be good for shorebombarment and drawing fire from the actually useful ships (assuming they ever get completed)
>>64666180Doesn't need to since the orangutan and kegsbreath are already doing more damage than the Chinese ever hoped they could
>>64666179The "Golden Fleet" isn't happening. Everyone with a brain knows it. Ingalls and BAE and so forth will definitely take whatever funds are dished out for the initial RFP but then they will just do nothing for the next three years while the Admirals play hot potato and this goes away. There's no manufacturing capacity, or institutional desire for this dumb shit. It's just the president whining that no one uses Battleships anymore and the Navy realized that efficiency = ugly about 100 years ago. This isn't going to change, and never will.
>>64666182>Wouldn't most modern ASMs be relatively useless against something as heavily armored as a WW2 era battleship? no.
>>64666152Ah I see, thats what has been driving gold prices lately.
>>646661821. It's way easier and cheaper to make missile capable of taking care of heavy armored targets than build new battleships2. You can't armor everything and a lot of sensitive equipment can't be armored in any way.3. No amount of armor will help you if missle-torpedo dives and explodes right under your keel.
Can't wait for this tacky motherfucker to rename the US Army to Golden Horde.
>>64666182Not even close, my man. That's why we stopped with armor in the first place. If WW2 torpedoes dropped from prop aircraft could take out the heaviest ships of all time, why do you think modern munitions would somehow fare worse? Either way, the Navy already did this math decades ago. It's why they gave up the ships in the first place. Modern munitions mog armor, and a stealthy cruise missile that will skim the water until it's time to top attack will void your battleship's belt.
>>64666152"Golden shower fleet"
>>64666182no, they wouldn't be.what gives people the inclination that modern asm's would somehow intentionally target the armored belt and not the aft and bow as well as the much thinner deck? this is also ignoring the fact that a modern "battleship" would be just as mission-killed by a hit to it's sensor array as any other frigate, rendering it completely helpless against follow-up attack.it's just a retarded idea, battleships had their day, they're not coming back.
>>64666152>golden dome>golden fleet>golden buildings>golden interiors what the fuck is wrong with this nigger? is he a gypsy baron?
>>64666252he's a bimbo with a failing memory, what do you expect?
Shouldn't you build a 'golden shipyard' before building the ship? Possibly with a golden workforce and golden shipbuilding industry?It's weird how many science fiction stories are relevant to this story. I think they were written at the time to be jokes about the military industrial complex without making it too on the nose for 1950s sensibilities.>>64666180>China fires their water missiles at the fleet only for them to fall short and kill millions of their own civilians>the fleet returns fire, a golden shower falls of impossibly expensive shells that finally bankrupt the US after one volleyWe all tried our best but maybe we should return to monkey?
>>64666252He is spiritually Ottoman
>>64666182What do you think is gonna be easier and cheaper: Building a modern battleship or refitting existing AShMs with an armor-piercing warhead?>>64666252He's the living, breathing definition of nouveau riche tackiness and lack of taste.
Economics are retarded,A comptent ruler can just handwave cost away and make it happen.See french kings expeling usurers X5 times
Another retarded goal that will barely have any progress made in 3 years. That the next President will halt, while restoring funding to other programs that were paused by Hegseth. The US isn't going to actually get anything new for the next ~5 years.
There are people on this board who will legitimately defend Kegsbreath
>>64666182No, because refitting them with armor defeating warheads would be trivial. There's no amount of armor that a ship could mount that would be effective against an anti-armor AShM, so there's no point in trying. It's also much cheaper to build the missile, so it makes no economic sense either.
>>64666309I genuinely do not understand how he hasn't been kicked out of his office by now. Surely Trump must realize by now that he's a walking clusterfuck
>>64666309there's a lot of retarded voters in the US that are obsessed with this>WE HAVE TO STICK TOGETHER AT ALL COSTSmentality, any criticism of trump's cabinet, any at all, is seen as a direct betrayal of the cause, which will weaken the countermovement against the perfidious other side, both libtards and Miga's engage in this behaviour to some degree, though only a part, i think a majority of the people that voted or didn't vote for trump aren't scared to call kegsbreath a retard, there's a minority that gets angry when issues are pointed out.
>>64666252he has a poor and stupid persons idea of what a rich guy should be>>64666325he does what he wants without question and looks good on TV. That is all there is to it
what is the usecase of such a thing in 2000+25?
>>64666325Hardcore support base in the electorate. Even though probably enough R and D Reps and Congressxirs WANT him gone, them supporting such a move will be their last term in office, too. I Didn't know that the Republican base had so many retards (I knew Dems had those numbers) and yet here we are.
>>64666372>I Didn't know that the Republican base had so many retardsDid you forget the Tea Party existed?
>>64666368Of a battleship? None, obviously. It'll be a cruiser to go along with DDGX, if it's not DDGX itself renamed to BBG-1 to make Trump happy.
>>64666372>Hardcore support base in the electorateI am his support base. Hegseth is dragging the entire administration down with his bullshit. And I'm not the only one who thinks this way
>>64666325they'll throw him under the bus if something comes of the boat strikes
>>64666325You need to be competent to recognize incompetence. Trump isn't keeping him despite his incompetence. He's keeping him because of it
>>64666252He's trying to secure the Jewish, Arab, Dutch, and Black vote in one go
>>64666368Turn US debt into dividend for my stock portfolio
>>64666424>dutchwhy dutch?our golden age has long since passed. :^)
>>64666182Shaped charge missiles and aerial torpedoes made steel armor largely irrelevant after WW2. If a few planes can sink a battleship with standoff munitions it's kinda pointless. That's why the focus was put on anti-air defenses.
We are truly living in amazing times. A period where "Who can be the LEAST retarded" determines who has the upper hand in this new Cold War. America can't stop trying to dick wave and shits on its allies, China can't stop pissing off every possible group in the region, and Russia continues to turn its skull to mush against a wall. The benefit of the American system is that poor decisions made by leaders can at least be (mostly) undone with the next one.
>>64666252>what the fuck is wrong with this nigger?I don't know if zoomers are too young for this, but in the '80s/90s Trump was the embodiment of the tacky, tasteless rich clown stereotype.
>>64666381Anon, that was probably before his time. I think most people memory holed that and Obama ran on the same populist platform as Trump because admitting that Republicans were running on the same message and issues as a Democrat would make the majority of the population have an aneurysm at the realization that both parties can say the same thing.>>64666325He’s probably the first Sec Def who really leaned in to the PR side of things and consistently gets the voter base for Trump to see him as relevant. As long as he’s in the public’s awareness, it’s good because he runs much as the same way as Trump does with the news cycle: do anything to show you’re doing something and stay relevant. To be fair, Hegseth does seem to be a fairly decent guy, he’s just in over his head and trying to fulfill Trump’s policy first and foremost. Doesn’t help that a lot of the guys who have been in since Just Cause finally retired, particularly since that was the learning ground for a lot of joint operations of the modern age and special operations. He’s suffering from a brain drain and redirecting the US military’s posture, which would be hard under normal circumstances with experience.
>>64666152The way Trump does things I wouldn't be surprised if the Burke Flight III was reclassified as a battleship to suit his tastes.
>>64666396Yeah, but are you going to vote for people who could oust Trump for his mistakes?Pfft. No. You're not going to.
>>64666466and the humble american voter thought "yep, that's my man!"twice.
>>64666325He's the political version of businesses that are veteran owned and sell coffee named after guns. This kind of guy only has to jerk off his fanbase to be successful. He can get optimal tip-to-tip efficiency with both Trump and the kind of voters who post on Facebook thanking Trump for outlawing liberalism.
>>64666152gigantic pleasure barges complete with trump tower + casino
>>64666487I'm old enough to remember when "Trump is president" was a TV/movie joke that meant "the most retarded thing possible happened."
>>64666152nonexistent
>>64666152If we can't even get a glorified frigate out without complications, I have 0% confidence a BB is going to make it past the drawing board especially given how few sailors there are to go around the existing fleet.
>>64666479If the Democrats weren't dead set on banning guns, cashless bail for violent criminals and other soft on actual crime bullshit, and importing millions of scabs to drive down wages and drive up housing, I might consider voting for them. Run better candidates I guess.
>>64666495ngl i feel sorry for you, that you also had to live in it
>>64666503Then you're stuck with bullshit. Have fun.
>>64666503The funny thing is that with how much the Republicans are pushing legal immigration, it's entirely possible for the Dems to pivot back into being an anti-immigrant party under the excuse that it's actually neocolonialism.
>>64666432Because most Americans only think of one person when they think about Dutch people
>>64666368In theory, sustained coastal bombardment to a degree equivalent to a whole carrier group with a secondary role of coming on top in a 1v1 cage fight versus a smaller surface combatant in the theoretical BBfag's dream scenario to tell all the Burke fags where to shove itIn practice, fund embezzlement and taking the money out of the pockets of BBfags who think they'll actually get a ship.

Imagine how awesome it'll be to be American during Trump's third term. Golden Dome, the Golden Fleet of Trump-class battleships, and the F-47 fighters keep us safe from Greenland. You can live here with a Trump Gold Card, see tariff money deposited in your child's Trump Account, withdraw a little Trumpcoin to buy a Trump Phone from Trump Mobile. If you're lucky enough you can score some tickets to the Trump-Kennedy center, or even get an invite to the Trump Ballroom.

He just said he's "upping" the Ford class. He wants even bigger Carriers?
>>64666325Because he unironically would back Trump when told to use military personnel against American citizens. I'm all for federal immigration enforcement and hold the moderate opinion that all border jumpers, drug boats, etc should get drones, but it's increasingly clear that when elections don't go his way (because we rubber band every 2-4 years) Trump WILL try something retarded to maintain control.

>>64667248Nigger, we never were a White majority country. White kept changing to the point fucking Italians were rightly considered brown, and Ethiopians were considered white. For fucks sake, there are Cubans and Mexicans who have been here 2 generations that consider themselves White. Guess who still wants to import millions of jeets over the next ten years? I'll give you a clue, he's got a spray tan and has a massive cunny enjoyer. I promise you have more in common with that brown day laborer than any WASP billionaire. I knew MIGAts were irredeemably retarded cultists, but this just takes the cake.

>>64666182>Wouldn't most modern ASMs be relatively useless against something as heavily armored as a WW2 era battleship?It depends on how the ship armor scheme is set up and where they hit. But you can absolutely armor against anti ship missiles, the NSM has a 125 kg (280 lbs) warhead.
>>64667366Because releasing the full files means he'll have to explain why multiple administrations operated whilst compromised by another nuclear armed state. Thats why they're willing to throw Clinton under the bus and use previously released photos of Micheal Jackson to obfuscate the fact that a large amount of celebrities and world leaders had no problem holding wild Eyes Wide Shut esque swinger parties full of cunny and coke. And don't even ask about what happened to the local brown orphans they brought to the island after abducting them from the surrounding islands.
>>64666182No. Much like in WWII, it is impossible to armor the things that make you effective (sensors), thus any kind of hit above the waterline renders you combat ineffective pretty much instantly. You can armor against anti shipping missiles but it will always be easier to increase warhead size than increase armor.
>>64666228>what gives people the inclination that modern asm's would somehow intentionally target the armored beltWhat gives people the inclination to think that ship armor against anti ship missiles would looke like ship armor vs large caliber armor piercing shells?
>>64667422Goodluck armoring your radar.
>>64666575Ships are so fragile in the missile age. Something of this size feels like another Yamato.
>>64666286>What do you think is gonna be easier and cheaper: Building a modern battleship or refitting existing AShMs with an armor-piercing warhead?A modern ASM warhead is comparable to a GP bomb - about 50% of its mass is HE. An armor piercing ASM warhead would have 5% of its mass as HE. And forget about making a casing that shoots EFP jets when your warhead is mostly metal.But muh shaped charge! Internal ablative armor arrays are lightweight but consume space. Thats not a big problem on a ship. And if you go that path, the ASM has to detonate 2-3 charge diameters off the hull for optimal jet shape. The hole in the hull would be tiny.

>>64666182The armor used by WW2 battleships would be insufficient to protect against ASMs. However, material science is still in its infancy on the scale of possible developments. It's likely and reasonable to assume that there are much much tougher alloys that can tank a nuclear strike (lots of intense "soft" X-ray, in fact, we already know that's possible due to Project Orion which used nuclear weapons as a propulsion system), or a high velocity impact (in the range of current ASMs), potentially.

>>64667909It is gauche to name a ship after yourself and the single greatest issue our Navy is struggling with right now is manning, which a 2 ship class of Cruiser+s does nothing to help with, unless you think that the opportunity to serve on the Trump Class Totally a Battleship is going to entice an extra 5000 people/year to join up as enlisted sailors.
>>64667104I can't believe they went from pushing BMD into the frigate to this lmfao
The North Korean Choe Hyon-class had more VLS than a tico and is lighter than the cancelled constellation class :(
>>64667930So it hurts your feelings? The only thing that Trump has been somewhat truthful for is that enlistment is up, so that isn't really the biggest worry
>>64667104The low intensity threat that it was imagined LCS is now too dangerous for either the LCS or a giant unarmed cutter. What mission can these even do? Will they have ASW equipment? anything?
>>64667975>enlistments are upWaivers are up.https://www.stripes.com/branches/army/2025-12-17/army-navy-recruiting-20120862.html
>hurr durrr muh VLS You shills didn’t even know what vls was until 30 minutes ago. vls is a stupid Democrat military industrial complex hoax, it’s useless for the US Navy’s current and future mission objective (killing drug traffickers in the western hemisphere) Trying to make a navy to Beat China is an impossible waste of breath anyways
>>64666725>THERE WILL BE NO ELECTIONSYou retards need to stop with this retardation, sincerely.
>>64667888April 30, 1806: "The French government cannot look on with indifference as a vile, degraded nation capable of every iniquity takes exclusive possession of two beautiful departments of Alsace; one must consider the Jews as a nation and not as a sect. It is a nation within a nation."Then he went harder: "It is a nation within a nation; I would deprive them, at least for a certain time, of the right to take out mortgages, for it is too humiliating for the French nation to find itself at the mercy of the vilest nation. Some entire villages have been expropriated by the Jews; they have replaced feudalism... It would be dangerous to let the keys of France, Strasbourg and Alsace, fall into the hands of a population of spies who are not at all attached to the country."In another part around May 7: "The Jews are the master robbers of the modern age; they are the carrion birds of humanity... They must be treated with political justice, not civil justice. They are surely not real citizens... The evils of the Jews do not stem from individuals but from the fundamental nature of this people."

>>64667166America welcomes the Type 055
>>64668387That's not even close to what the 055 looks like. Why are chinkshills so retarded? Low iq niggers

>>64666725>The US is becoming russia SAAR!!!please kys jeet.
>>64667211The name in other circumstances would be good but the only thing this thing is defying is logic.
>>64666725Oh my fucking God, just go jerk off already, fuck.
>>64666270>shipyards>without plentiful bottom-rung immigrant labor...
>>64666469>To be fair, Hegseth does seem to be a fairly decent guy>t. loyal Fox News viewer"no"you should really really dig up the emails that were leaked from his own mother. His own mother called him a scumbag. He's an alcoholic fuckup in waaay over his head, only getting the job because he was Trump's loudest cheerleader. Nothing decent about him as an actual person, or in the job he's doing.
the seething in this thread is fucking fantastic lol
>>64668651staying up late over a bottle, Petey?gotta take your job more seriously
>>64668671hegseth could be as fat as the brass he told has to lose weight or get the boot or as drunk as your mom when she's paying her bills on the corner and he'd still be 100x more competent than your well poisoning seething ass lmao
>>64666565>defending Omar and AOCYou're a paki or from Leftypol, you fucking worthless faggot. I'm not even American and I can tell.
uge gaudy and glorious
>>64666424You're missing the Gypsy, Albanian and Armenian vote.
>>64668702There's zero chance this isn't a jeet with that style of crashout.
>>64666466Ironically, in his private life at that time he wasn't so tacky.
>>64668702I didn't see any fat generals in that picFFS Pete calm down, you can always go back to Fox News after you get shitcanned for the boat fiasco. It's the drinking that'll do you in eventually, I'd fix that
>>64668744I don't see it. Explain.
>>64666152I vote for POLICY over PERSONALITY. So far, so good. I feel that Trump did a great job stopping the flood of illegal immigration, brokering peace deals (internationally), shutting down Iran's ability to produce materials for a nuclear bomb, declaring war on drug trafficking, cutting taxes, deregulating the economy, and stifling the ridiculous "woke" crazies from taking over American schools (including universities).There is still more to be done. I hope that he will focus on balancing the budget in 2026.
>>64666529Literally nothing different from any war.
>>64668762you know this place is shitted up with seething cunts and foreign larps. that's all they are. clawing at us because they're terrified or angry because they think being gay gives them special privileges. >muh drones>muh hypersonics>muh /pol/you lost faggots.
>>64668761What pic retard?
>>64668778Wrong board
>>64666210LOL
>>64668761>>64668671>SAAR AMERICA IS BAD SAAR>YOU NEED TO IMPORT MORE JEETS SAAR!>WE MAKE JEET SLUR ON YOUTUBE SAAR!We get it you're brown.
>>64668436You're right, this is worse that the Type 055 because it will NEVER exist LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO
>>64668778I mean, Trump did none of those things and none of Trump's "policies" achieved any of those things.
>>64668987You know you'd be a lot more convincing if you didn't make stupid absolute statements.

>>64668498just saw wigger. it's ok here
>>64668761facebook tier posting. go back to you niggercattle pen
>>64668624Korea and Japan can do itEvery American thinks a Mexican is the answer to literally every problem. It's unironically a South Park joke and yet I see it everywhere from Americans.
>>64669077Koreans and Japanese are poor like Mexicans that is why they work those jobs, they are much less wealthy than random americans
>>64666487Half. Half of America fell for his bullshit. The rest of us just get to deal with it.
>>64668624Call me a racist but I don't think using foreigners to build and maintain our navy is a good idea. Maybe the defense industry should be someplace we pay a premium for actual US citizens instead of going with the cheapest option.
>>64668182Was about to say, the quality of Navy personnel has been declining and they DEI administration (Diversity and Inclusivity for the MOST retarded and brown people) is pumping up those numbers at the cost of merit…the exact thing they accused the previous administration of doing.
>>64669103That’s just common sense. Do you want someone invested in their country or Pajeet and Pedro who talk about how great it was to be in their previous country?
>>64666152it will be made in two decades, trust the plan >>64666252he's like a gipsy
>>64669082there are no mexicans in Japan, Korea, or China you fucking retardThere is also no ship building in Mexico
>>64669123you're the fucking retard. Japanese and Koreans are like MEXICANS because they are POOR as MEXICANS and do the MEXICAN jobs just like MEXICANS do in AMERICA and also in AMERICA
>>64669125so Koreans can do work in Koreaand Japanese can do work in JapanBut only mexicans can do work in America?
>>64669125So instead of trying to make high skill high paying jobs for US citizens we need cheap foreign workers to build our navy because the government can't afford it?Are you retarded or just bown?
>>64669133Americans work higher payer jobs and dont want to be poor like Japanese, Koreans, or Mexicans. Do you really want to be a cashier at 7-11? No, thats why we make Indians and Mexicans do it.
>>64669137How much do you think a ship yard pays?
>>64669138More than the ones in Japan and Korea, duh
>>64669125>>64669137>brings up japs>brings up gooks>doesn't bring up chinksI wonder who's behind these posts.
>>64669142Its a jeet you can tell by the way it types.
>>64669142Because China and Japan are countries we could potentially procure hulls from, China is not. But yes China is even poorer than Korea and Japan
>>64669149Why is China notbecause the media and ZOG told you china is an adversary?
>>64669157okay dumbfuck

>>64668470>>64668470>Obama kills US citizen that is an active participant in a group that an AUMF passed by congress and signed by the previous President allows Obama to bomb>Obama contacted his justice department to inquire as to whether this was legal and was assured that he had legal justification to do this because it was a war>The retard bombed some random people he accused of drug trafficking, which is a crime but not an act of war>Has not deferred to the justice department, which he fully controls now, and does not have an AUMF allowing his actions, nor is there a recognized group engaged in open hostility with the US. >He has also put troops in US cities because they voted for someone other than him, and has arrested US citizens that had valid Real IDs with them. >This is somehow the same to the MIGA retard.
