Full disclosure: it has been a couple decades since I have gamed. But this is bad ass.

Can't they all? I know the carrier Nimitz can i saw it do it in final countdown around 1980

The problem with this ship is it needs to be dry docked. Ships are dry docked every couple of years for hull inspections. I think it's like 2 years. Then every 5 years they go to the shipyard for repairs. A ship can last for hundreds of years as long as it's dry docked and there are parts available. Seems like dry docking the battleship is going to be very expensive for the condition that it's in. I don't think they could tow the ship out of port so dry docks are gonna have to be brought to it. The underneath may need to be dredged just to slide a dry dock under. The task will be very expensive, we're talking millions. I'm thinking if they can't do that, they should just fill in the slip with dirt and cement the ship in place like they did with the USS Cavalla and Stewart in SeaWolf Park.
