If any of you are ever around somewhere you can tour a retired Navy ship then I highly suggest you do so. They are absolutely badass. I'd be terrified to go against one of those ships and they are the retired ones that have already seen their useful life.
Some of the new stuff we are making looks like it's from a sci-fi movie. I was lucky enough to see one of the new Zumwalt-class destroyers being built last year. It's one of the new stealth ships, if they were to send one of those the cartels wouldn't even know what hit them.
We've got the USS Kidd here in BR, and on the 4th they do a fireworks display, preceded by a little re-enactment of the event where it got torpedoed. Old airplane come flying around fires machine guns (blanks), pyrotech guys had explosives in the water to make it look like bullets hitting the surface, big explosion to simulate the torpedo, and then the Kidd start blasting those deck guns you can see in the link, and SON, sitting all the way up on the levy you can feel the shockwave from that shit. Awesome ship! Great history too.
