President Donald Trump has announced that the U.S. Navy will build a new class of battleships named after him as part of the White House's efforts to modernize the fleet. The move is part of a broader push to address cost overruns and delays that have plagued naval shipbuilding in recent years. The "Trump-class" battleships are expected to be a key component of the administration's plan to expand and strengthen the U.S. naval forces. The announcement comes as the Trump administration seeks to bolster the military's capabilities and project American power on the global stage. The new vessels are likely to be a controversial addition, given the divisive nature of the president's political legacy.
