Trump wants to build the "fastest and largest warship" Expert: may not be able to build
On the 22nd, President Trump of the United States said that the US Navy will build two new "Trump-class" warships, which will be the fastest and largest warships in the US military, with a combat power 100 times stronger than existing vessels. According to Trump's vision, the US Navy will create a "Golden Fleet" consisting of the "Trump-class" warships, but experts doubt whether the new warships can be built as planned. Brian Clark, an expert at the Hudson Institute, pointed out that the US Navy hopes to build a new shipyard to speed up shipbuilding, but it is estimated that it will take ten years for the new shipyard to deliver similar new warships. Mark Cancian, a retired officer of the US Marine Corps and a senior advisor at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, also questioned whether the new warships will ultimately be completed. According to Cancian's estimation, the cost of building a "Trump-class" warship will be as high as $10 to $12 billion.
