Is Trump legit retarded or it's a deliberate sabotage? I van't tell anymore...
>>524191455Why does it look hideous like the cybertruck?
I thought it was a photoshop meme, Trump-class. lol. The guy is a terminal-level narcissist. He can't serve America because he's way too in love with himself.He must be more worried about making sure this ego driven retardation stays rather than if the ship is good. You can't serve two masters, and he can only serve his ego.
Electronic warfare and state of the art detection equipment to dunk on fiber optic drones.
>>524191455By that logic, aircraft carriers and large ships in general, are all bad.Drones are quite easy to intercept. They only paralyzed war in ukraine cause both sides are quite retarded. The US repeatedly demonstrated tech that can fry (not jam) swarms of drones, lasers that burn drones in seconds, rapidly firing turrets which already are on all ships. Drones are a big deal as long as you can only attack with unsupported tanks and infantry squads in rags.In fact an aircraft carrier is a much bigger all-eggs-in-one-basket situationThe real counterargument is that it's unclear what you would even do with a battleship. Any target you can hit with it, can be hit by plane or missile from much further away
>>524191455>drones>not knowing by design this is an anti-radar ship with jamming capabilities. Are you retarded?
>>524191455It's a better investment than throwing another 100 billion at that idiot zelensky.But unless that naval ship has submersible capabilities, it's a giant floating target. Navies are almost completely obsolete.
>>524191455Man i love this guy. Would have been an Class A Dictator. America will never be this fun again.
>>524191455they gonna need captain janeway
>>524191527low radar observability
>>524192354>this is an anti-radarESL detected. Also the drones don't need radar dumb dumb
>>524191455For a second I thought they had placed a small Statue of Liberty on the ship.
>>524191455>Is Trump legit retarded or it's a deliberate sabotage? I van't tell anymore...He just wants the biggest thing.150 VLS cells is OK, in particular since 12 are for future hypersonics.. but the Russian Adm. Gorshkov class has 16 hyperaonics now (that work and are not abstract hyperaonic projects, and it'sonly ~4700 tonnes).The railgun is also a meme for all but short range air defence.Lasers have their niche, but it is also a future weapon.And the boat weighs 30-40 000 tons!A kirov cruiser for comparison weighs 28k ton and has 208 VLS tubes + 20 heavy anti ship missiles (high supersonic).It should have a target weight of ~14-20k ton with that level of armament.But it doesn't matter since it will end up costing well over $10 billion per ship and probably never be built.It also completely misses the reality of drones.It's the perfect design for wars in the 80s and 90s.With that said, the Ticonderoga being retired has left the space open for a heavy missile hauler.But it's hard to really twll wtf is gping on with the USN.They fucked upp the previous Ticonderoga replacement (Zumwalt), and the smaller LCS have been a complete failure.The Constellation class (cheaper easy to make "half Arleigh Burke") got axed when it was more expensive than the Arleigh Burke and less than half as capable.In the end, there is no coherent doctrine.It's just the MIC pitching one-off concepts and retards buying it.This ship btw is such an obvious candidate for nuclear propulsion, but nope. It's diesel. Despite using "Integrated Full Electric Propulsion (IFEP)"...And despite it being intended to carry nukes.So it's limited in endurance and puts a strain on logistics for no purpose.
>>524191455shouldnt it be all gold with a big fucking TRUMP logo on it
Activate the mini golden domes
>TRUMP CLASS>USS DefiantSo is there going to be a "USS Trump" built first?Or is this just a trolling name for a Defiant class?Or are we breaking norms again?>>524194723>For a second I thought they had placed a small Statue of Liberty on the ship.https://petitions.trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/
>>524194723I wouldn't put it past Trump to have a giant ship with a huge statue of liberty in the back where the torch houses a laser. Image a huge floating city coming to liberate your area firing 150 nukes, rail guns and giant liberty laser shooting drones out of the sky. What song is playing?
