I would say send in the 688's Put as many Mk-48ADCAPS into the sides of that ship as you can. I know the battleship has torpedo blisters to protect it but not against a few modern day torps. The battleship has no ASW weapons at least it did not in the movie! And one more thing, I don't think it would be that easy to take over a battleship with nuks on board. Hell the marines on board would have chewed them up! Those boys were always looking to get into to it. My best friend Ken was a marine aboard the USS Long Beach CGN-9 and he even ate in the mess with his weapon!
