This is a forum for serious military enthusiasts. How the hell can you post a lame proposal like this here? Only two naval cannons and four rail guns? Who are you kidding here???

Fair enough. We can remove 128 VLS cells and add 4 more railgun turrets, bringing the total up to 12 barrels, equaling any battleship in history.

We'll also need to retrofit a wave motion cannon in the bow at some point.

I mean it would help if you revise it to a more grounded take on a notional capital ship that isn't a flattop.

Why the doctrinal need for one? Justification for the size? What does the propulsion and power setup look like? Otherwise it would just be a Trump BBGN(X) situation where the ship itself dictates everything about it, not the other way around which is how it would work irl.

I am thinking if there is a far remote chance for something like 60k-80k ton BBG, perhaps something akin to Kiev Class Carrier would be the most possible. Have two emal launcher on the side for drones and J-35

Still dumb though.

I don't see why we need a whole thread for this.

It will be merged with the PS/CGI thread

Why not a giant fixed gun barrel built-in the hull running across the entire length of the ship? Point the ship at approximate direction to aim. The recoil might shake the ship apart each time it shoots, but it will at least be the biggliest phallic compensator around, until the Lord Saviour Trumperor decides to build an even bigglier one.

Yes. The idea would be to have a wave motion gun running the length of the ship that is directly powered by the nuclear engine.

Why stop there. Why not make it a wave motion gun instead???
