Trump Unveils USS Defiant, New Navy Ship

President Trump unveils plans for a new Trump-class warship, the USS Defiant, as part of a push to modernize the Navys surface fleet. The Navy aims to fill gaps in the fleet, which is currently one-third the size it needs, with new builds like the FF(X) frigate. Trumps Golden Fleet initiative seeks to revive US shipyards and catch up to Chinas production lead, with a new Office of Shipbuilding and tax breaks to lure companies back home. Experts see this as a prioritization of real needs, like replacing aging destroyers, while Trump continues to brand other projects like the F-forty-seven stealth fighter and new centers named after him.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
