Trump's Laser Battleships
2025-12-24
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] Trump announced the creation of large "laser battleships" displacing up to 40,000 tons, which will be armed with the most modern weaponry.

Among Trump's wishes:

1. The construction of two battleships with a displacement of 40,000 tons.

2. The main armament should be lasers and modern missiles.

3. The battleships will have nuclear weapons on board.

4. The battleships will be equipped with railguns.

5. They will belong to the "Trump" class.

6. Trump plans to personally participate in the design of the battleships named after himself.

7. The first ship is scheduled to be launched as early as 2028, and it should enter the fleet by 2030.

Just when experts were practicing the theme that the time of large warships is over and the dominance of naval drones is ahead, Trump came along and ruined everything.

P.S. Trump stated that the US would keep the stolen tankers carrying Venezuelan oil. In general, theft of other people's property at the state level is becoming commonplace in the brave new world.
