Corporations have taken over the military industry in the USA and Battleships are simply unacceptable. Cost effectiveness and the drastic reduction in crew size are the two most important factors in modern warship design today. Also, Naval gunfire support is the least important. Consequently, Battleships are simply not acceptable anymore and to continue to try to resurrect them is like trying to move the Navy back to the days of line of battle tactics, which became obsolete after the Battle of Surigao Strait.
