For any given issue in naval affairs...

...there will always be one guy in the audience who thinks the solution is to re-activate the Iowas.

It doesn't matter if the problem is a shoot-out with Russia, forcible amphibious entry or littoral warfare.

Yes, hunting speed boats with a 45 000 ton battleship sounds totally plausible. Because apparently there is no problem with operating in the littorals with a 30 ft (!) draft.

18" guns are all the mission modules you'll ever need.
