@w7voa They're just giving him shiny stuff to play with now. This is just an expensive distraction that’ll never get finished, all so Steven Miller and the wealthy can destroy the country.
@w7voa As soon as he's out of office, they'll cancel this project. Lasers? Really? What a fucking child he is.
@w7voa
The Ukrainians have decimated Russia's Black Sea warship fleet with cheap drones - a jetski, a laptop, a couple of servos and a hundred kilogrammes of High Explosive.
Golden fleece.
“Trump-class” Golden Fleet AI-controlled battleships will be the largest "in the history of the world ever built" with hypersonic weapons, the most-sophisticated lasers and Cruise nuclear missiles and "ultimately there'll be 20 to 25 of these," announces the president.
@w7voa The Trump "Golden" ballroom will never be completed and the Golden Fleet will never go to sea.
@w7voa this is clearly a destroyer, and not a particularly large one
@w7voa Lol. So says the King of Debt. New deficit record anyone?
@w7voa 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@w7voa@journa.host this is so stupid, small AUVs are the way forward
Big platforms like he describes are dumb. And why shove ai into it? Make a carrier submarine maybe but this seems very unnecessary considering our existing fleet
Or just make AUVs compatible with our torpedo tubes etc like what this is so dumb i hate this world
Invest in sensors or something tf is this clown shit
There's sooooo many better investments like why do we live in the dumbest version of hell
@w7voa sounds like a 4th grader…….
Asked about having enough workers to build all these battleships, President Trump replies: "We're going to have a lot of robots helping us."
As someone that maintains robots, robots will do exactly what they are programmed.
Program a robot with AI slop, the robot and everything around it will become not. 🚑🔥
@w7voa
Opportunity it create jobs? Oh hell no.
@w7voa of course.
The SS Titanic had lifebuoys of solid gold, too.
@w7voa This takes me back to my days of playing #StarFleetBattles and hearing about the Klingon Empire’s A-11 *Thunderbunny*-class superbattleship. #USPoli

@w7voa I wonder if there’s a reason there are some uncrewed machine guns that are firing into the water
Littoral ships boondoggle, here we go again.

@w7voa that appears to be an AI knockoff of a Freedom-class LCS. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8e/USS-Freedom-rear-130222-N-DR144-367.jpg
@w7voa
Is this an actual picture? This isn't a joke?
This isn't a plan. Its AI slop a fifth grader might do for a project if they were running out of time.
@w7voa USS Pedo is more like it.
@w7voa are they bringing back cannons?? lol. this thing is outclassed by a single UKR "navy" explosive rowboat.
@w7voa is that a sharepic of a cheap ass mobile idle game or the future of the world's strongest military? #WorldOfCrapVessels
@w7voa Which will never see battle due to "propellor spurs"
@w7voa That's a larger version of the Littoral ship design
https://www.propublica.org/article/how-navy-spent-billions-littoral-combat-ship
@w7voa which one is the Trump class? The sinking one in the back?
@w7voa all guns blazing for effect given they would not be effective in the fight imagined. As Submariners would say there are Submarines and there are targets. As a PLAN Admiral would say, thank you for such a prominent target.
@w7voa Not only does he get thinner each time he reworks that image of his clipped ear, but the SS agents who are shielding him while he makes his calculated show of defiance (after demanding that the agents retrieve his shoe) have now shrunk to invisibility.
@w7voa It's giving Austin Mini pickup.
@w7voa
He draw that up himself?
@w7voa Looks like an LCS (Littoral Combat Ship).
Aaaaand those fuckers were cursed starting with the blueprints.
I approve of this design (flaw).
@w7voa lmao it looks like the failed LCS run though bad AI. Even the USS Texas would squish it in her current refreshed state.
@w7voa Why is it so tiny? There are Coast Guard patrol vessels
bigger than this thing.
Says Kim Jung Un's lover. They are two peas in a pod.
@w7voa Did they get Barron to make that?
@w7voa They had to make a battleship. Even if they didn't need one. Great leader has to be pleased.
@w7voa they should have s korea make them and then we finish them - otherwise it won't get done w/o 300b cost overruns, additionally think about the infrastructure needed - bath maine and ms can't catch up - no way - even with doge robots #boondoggles
Watching all of our tax money go into AI instead of healthcare
@w7voa Sell that explains the new hypersonic rocket factory the military industrial complex is racing to build six miles from my house. https://www.castelion.com/news/castelion-announces-project-ranger/
@w7voa Yeah, right.
@w7voa He obviously couldn't have said all that because that is completely mad.
@w7voa i'm so glad that i traded healthcare for this!
I suspect his high end fantasy brags are just gonna keep coming. Arches and 50 state competitions and all...
None of these concepts seem to take time into account. Let alone practicality or expense.
@w7voa
Maybe if Fucko had served in the military (like many of his peers & the younger crowd) he wouldn’t be such a freaking warmonger!
I’m old enough to remember when PEACE was a genuine dream & pursuit. Our DOW budget is obscene & immoral while social programs & American residents go begging.
Our national priorities are so fucked up!
@w7voa We all know it will never happen. These kind of projects take ten or twenty years at least.
@w7voa they will be the Cybertrucks of the oceans
@w7voa It's like a bad movie...
@w7voa he’ll be dead by then
@w7voa Solving the affordability crisis!
The Swedish king tried this 400 years ago... but then again, learning from history doesn't seem to be a thing in the U.S.
@w7voa In 17th century, king Gustavus II Adolphus Vasa ordered construction of Vasa warship. The ship was heavily decorated (although rather gilded than golden) and too high (those decorations needed some vertical space), so it capsized and sunk almost immediately after setting sails. I don't know why I think about it now…
