The Iron Hammer was blasting its way through the rushing enemy forces.

It was outgunned, outnumbered and outmaneuvered, but its cannons and best-in-class shield and armor gave it edge it badly needed.

The #Navy is also projecting that it will be asking for $17 billion in fiscal year 2028 to start construction on the first of the #Trump class, Navy ofcls said.

But snr #defense ofcls said the program, along with Trump’s ambitious plans for his golden fleet, was marred by problems. The US shipbuilding industry has nowhere near the capacity to build a technologically advanced #battleship of the sort Trump is envisioning in the next few years, snr #military ofcls said.

#GovernmentSpending

…Before the #Navy settled on its plans for the Trump-class #battleship, Phelan wooed #Trump to the idea by showing oil paintings of some of the service’s great battleships from earlier eras, #defense officials said.

In its $1.5 trillion defense budget, released earlier this week, the Trump admin is asking for $65.8 billion for shipbuilding, the second-largest shipbuilding budget proposal since 1955, according to Congressional Budget Office data.

Presidents rarely pay close attention to military procurement, but #Trump has spoken repeatedly about his plans for a new “Trump-class” #battleship. In a February speech to soldiers at Fort Bragg, NC, Trump insisted that he had helped design the new class of ships that bear his name.

“I put a little more spirit in the hull,” Trump told the troops. “I want that ship to look gorgeous, you know.”

#MilitaryReadiness #kakistocracy #Navy #GovernmentSpending #narcissism

#Trump called Phelan to talk about his poor relationship with other leaders in the #Pentagon.

Feinberg & #Hegseth had recently seized some decision-making authority from Phelan, tapping a three-star admiral to oversee the #Navy’s submarine portfolio & having him report directly to Feinberg.

That left Phelan with oversight of the major investment in new ships that Trump has called a “golden fleet,” built around the president’s beloved #battleship program.

The Russian battleship Imperator Aleksandr II was a pre-dreadnought battleship of the Imperial Russian Navy. Laid down in 1885 at the New Admiralty Shipyard and commissioned in 1891. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/imperator-aleksandr-ii-russian-pre-dreadnought-battleship/ #Navy #battleship #ImperatorAleksandrII #ImperialRussianNavy #naval #predreadnoughtbattleship #warship #MaritimeHistory #NavalHistory

HMS Ramillies was a Royal Sovereign-class battleship of the Royal Navy commissioned into service in 1893.

She became increasingly obsolescent as the all-big-gun concept emerged in the early 1900s. Placed in reserve and eventually paid off, being sold for breaking up in 1913, just as HMS Dreadnought had rendered her entire generation of battleships obsolete. #Navy #battleship #HMSRamillies #maritimehistory #naval #NavalHistory #Predreadnought #RoyalNavy #Ship #warship https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/warships-of-the-british-royal-navy/hms-ramillies-1892-battleship/

HMS Hood was a British Royal Navy pre-dreadnought battleship of the Royal Sovereign class laid down in 1889 at Chatham Dockyard and launched on 30 June 1891.
On 4 November 1914, early in the First World War, when she was deliberately sunk as a blockship in the southern entrance of Portland Harbour to protect the anchorage from submarine attack. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/warships-of-the-british-royal-navy/hms-hood-1891/ #RoyalNavy #battleship #HMSHood1891 #maritimehistory #naval #NavalHistory #Navy #Predreadnought #Ship #warship

TIL: Trump class battleships. It will come as no surprise that the idea is stupid…

🔍🎩 Breaking News: The US decides "laws schmaws" in their latest game of #Battleship, where the rules are made up and the lives don't matter. 🤦‍♂️💥 Meanwhile, back in reality, innocent lives pay the price for this political farce, but hey, at least it's "efficient," right? 🙄👎

Royal Navy Ironclad HMS Captain under construction. HMS Captain was an innovative but ultimately ill-fated ironclad turret ship of the Royal Navy, launched in 1869.

It would’ve been my father‘s 100th birthday today. He was deaf towards the end of his life (89) due to the ear damage caused by the heavy blast from the 15 inch guns.
Here is a #watercolour. I did about 10 years ago, partially cheated by importing a photograph of #HMSMalaya, an Elizabeth class #battleship that saw service in both the first and second world wars and making changes to bring it up to how it was during #WW2, such as removal of all th 8” barrage guns.. My #father is visible as a tiny figure a couple of pixels long, clinging to the starboard strut from the rear mast. One of his jobs was to repair radio wiring which had become damaged during shelling. His battle station was in the “spotting top”, visible as a small hut on the rear mast. He was a #signaller and he volunteered for the job because he would rather be there than down sealed in the radio room above the #keel where all the #codes were kept.
All #OurParents in the services did some amazing things during the Second World War; may #GodBless them all.
