WASHINGTON, Dec 22 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday announced plans for the Navy to begin building a new class of battleship that he said would be larger, faster and 100 times more powerful than the biggest of any previous U.S.-built warship.
He said the project would begin with construction of two such battleships and eventually be expanded to encompass 20 to 25 new vessels.
