US military has suffered far more damage than the Pentagon has reported

[John Clark]

The nature of warfare has been fundamentally changed by cheap but intelligent drones, but He Who Must Not Be Named still wants to create a fleet of "Trump-Class Battleships" that would cost $17 billion EACH even though, thanks to drones, they would end up being nothing but hyper expensive coffins for American sailors. Drones are getting smarter by the day, and our president is getting dumber. 

Most of US military sites in Middle East have been damaged by Iran

I am not the fanboy of The Nameless, but in theory a big ship has a
lot of place to install antidrone weapons on it. Maybe it will be big
enough to make an umbrella for the rest of a task force (warships
nowadays would rather not travel alone).

In practice, this theory may be put to a test, of course.
