  • A New Battleship Class, what should it have?

    In the modern naval world 16 inch guns are not as useful as they used to be, so what should a modern Battle Ship have?

    my list
    Nuclear reactor
    16 inch guns (not as many but for the look and for shelling inland)
    Rail Gun
    Aegis systems
    cruse missiles
    Chopper deck, capacity 3
    AA systems

    just to start with

    A battle ship should be able to combat any threat and not be vulnerable to air, missile or submarine attack.

    thoughts?
    There is no such thing as free lunch

      Other than Add Nuclear power and the Aegis system the US battle ships where pretty much un-matched anyway..not much would have to be added other than some new computers to be able to run with smaller crews.
