You act like we don't need a ****ing navy just because we have some aircraft. Also, are you sure that a aircraft can do more to a warship that a warship to another? No. A warship designed for engaging enemy boats would EASILY deal more damage to other warships. Assuming that the aircraft makes it to the boat, for a lot of warships have AA guns. Also, it depends what kind of warship we are talking about. Some, which are designed for shooting down aircraft (cruisers are one) and other purposes could easily take down a plane. Aircraft carrier even carry airplanes. They are an essential warship for transporting aircraft, refueling them, an keeping them close to the fight.
So please stfu.

No we need ships. We dont need to build them we need to upgrade older ones. Beside america is in huge debt and this will just make the debt even larger. Along with this metal prices wil skyrocket and most everything is made from metal. Also he wants more m1 abrams. This too will contribute big time to skyrocketing prices. The only good thing this will do is put people to work. But building a warship takes a crap ton of guys and americas navy labor wont have the man power needed. Now what will take a huge spike is oil prices. Why simplie because warships take a crap ton of oil to run.
No aircraft now a days can deal MASSIVE damage to ships with rocket pods, heat seaking missiles. Now they dont deal as much damage as a gun from a ship directly. But planes are much more consistant and accurate than main guns leading to higher damages in the end.
