    All the best

  • P2 The practical political cost though in re-investing in these ships is a double edge sword - the mystique of weapons like the Iowa & B52 which still "cut the mustard" but are also considered outwardly relics of the 20th century is worrying for the enemy & for politicians if these ships are hit. Although I'd like to see them in dry dock as a tribute to US engineering in the future - while they are still a potential asset, they should be gutted & given a modern re-fit it might give USMC a edge.

  • P1 The USMC are constantly calling for the Iowa class (according to military news websites) to be put back into a re-fit program with modern weapons. I don't know if this debate is going to be concluded but obviously a re-fited iowa class would be cost effective - I have heard about the same sum as a Zumwalt destroyer but would provide much more immediate fire power - particularly as West has not got revenge on Saudi or Pakistan for 9/11 & Iran & sometimes Israel are anti-western.

  • those people look like ants:)

  • i dont care if someone insults me but dont you like if we have the fuso battleship side by side? :D

  • @TheBByamashiro No, they still run, but they haven't been fired in 20 years and it was cheaper to tow her. :/

  • Ships like these are true warships not the stupids destroyers of today.

  • WOW!! THAT'S PERFECT COORDINATION!! Great job, and great video! How long did the whole thing take?

  • looks like her engines are not working:/

  • hehe 4 little babies tow up the big lady:D
