Add Phasers and Photon torpedoes. And Deflector Shields.

Battleships been obsolete since before WW2. Besides, the USS Donald Trump would be a Ford Class aircraft carrier complete with a solid gold head for the Captain who'd be proud to go in there and take a dump.

Who cares if a battleship's utility is questionable? Build 'em and blast the shite out of something. A carrier would be the U.S.S. Donald J. Trump (CVN-81). You could easily have lavish facilities for the ship's Captain. That's not unusual for the Navy, going back a long time.

It would have to be named after a state. Battleship New York, Battleship Florida, either one is fine.


Great, which state is going to be renamed "Trump."

Yes, powered by TMTG / TAE fusion reactors




quote:

*Military Relevance*: TAE's origins involved Naval Research Lab peer reviews, and recent $6 billion merger with Trump Media & Technology Group (announced December 2025) could accelerate funding for dual-use tech under a defense-friendly administration. While not explicitly naval, the modular design suits "fleet" deployments, potentially extending to maritime forces.


In summary, yes—TAE's fusion plants could provide the necessary power, with Da Vinci's 250 MW output enabling multiple weapon systems simultaneously. Real-world adoption would depend on successful prototypes, cost reductions (already 50% from breakthroughs), and Navy collaboration, but the tech's compactness and density make it a promising fit for future all-electric warships.

I think someone mentioned Greenland, aka Trumplandia, so I'm going with that. Or Puerto Rico.
