USS Healthcare for All
so THATS where the budget went
"FIRE ALL PORT SIDE GUNS!"
does barrel roll
Spins so fast it generates the energy needed to power the entire ship.
The spin creates a tsunami to deliver even more damage.

that's why it has a dozen anchors on each side of the hull. proper preparation prevents piss poor projectiling.

That's why navies stopped using broadsides and went to turrets about 150 years ago. Well, it's one of the reasons anyway. Turrets also worked a lot better once you shifted to steam power and didn't have to worry so much about rigging. Additionally, you could mount a much bigger gun on a turret than you could using broadsides on the sides of a wooden sailing ship.

If someone shoves a proton torpedo up my anus i'd probably blow up as well to be fair

Healthcare? 🙅
This? 👀
They probably have a med bay
So looking at a map.of New Yorks bays and ignoring depth and bridges I'm going to assume this is about 2 miles long or 10,560ft. I have no evidence and just eyeballed it.
Meaning if you can overcome the skin friction it has a hull speed of about 160mph...without planing.
Modern carriers have a hull speed in the neighborhood of 45mph (though officially the top speed is like 35mph) and normally cruise at 25-30mph so the slow pokes can keep up.

I'm not sure about the quality of the welding near the waterline.
I mean we don't have an issue with super-super super super super firing turrets with no apron turrets or near main secondaries?
This ship is the entire Fleet-in-Being doctrine.
It's the new nuclear deterrent. Someone starts acting up and you just rotate the boat slightly in its port to face their direction. The parental angry raised eyebrow of national defense.

Most of my tax dollars are going towards greebling.
The mass shortage of model kits is the real tragedy.
It's the fortress-ship from Iain Bank's "Use of Weapons".
How's the command chair?
A little pokey around the ribs.

Although yes, it's ridiculous, I'd really love a higher-resolution version to zoom in on. 😁

I mean, it's fine, but couldn't it do with more guns?
Sooo much power! Limitless power! I feel it in my loins! It's like a 50 piece Voltron of freedom!

Budget & award contact to the private sector first, figure out credibility of defense later.

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
