Congress Estimates U.S. Golden Fleet Cost
A report from the Congressional Budget Office estimates that the cost of building the "Golden Fleet" of approximately 15 nuclear battleships for the United States could reach up to $275 billion by 2056. The costs include constructing the first battleship at about $23 billion, with an average cost of around $18 billion for each of the remaining 14 vessels. This makes it one of the most expensive projects in U.S. Navy history, surpassing the cost of the nuclear aircraft carrier USS Gerald Ford, which was approximately $13.2 billion. The report suggests that there is a possibility of the actual costs exceeding these estimates, which could impact the schedules for other shipbuilding programs.
