Trump’s ‘Ultimate’ Warship Vision To Sink US Navy Funds? ‘Gamble’ Puts Budgets & Shipyards To Test

U.S. President Donald Trump has unveiled plans for massive new “Trump-class” battleships under a so-called Golden Fleet, touting unprecedented firepower and size unseen since World War II.

But critics warn the vision clashes with the U.S. Navy’s troubled shipbuilding record, marked by delays, budget overruns, and workforce shortages. Experts question whether U.S. shipyards can deliver on time or within budget, raising fears the bold plan could drain naval finances rather than restore maritime dominance. Watch
