does anybody in the world actually believe the US could build a new, functional weapon of war at even close to this scale? like, what rock do you have to live under to not know that our defense contractors can’t make anything except profits for themselves?
I don’t think you could find a single soul in Congress who would genuinely say “yes we can build this”, it is just another way to funnel money into various defense contractors so said senators/congressional reps can get a nice payout after they leave office for helping Northrop Grumman get record profits for another year
It’s not even that grandiose of scale. It’s a mid-size ship. The only unique thing about it is it’s loaded up with questionably effective wunderwaffen like railguns and lasers (I believe railguns have been tried like 50 times and never work in actual combat for various reasons)

You might not like it, but this is what peak efficiency looks like
