(Photo : Screenshot from Twitter post of @Simon_JonesCTV) US Navy's USS Ford is World's Most Expensive Carrier! Pentagon Tests the New Ship and Finds Faulty Tech These are shots of the US Navy’s newest #supercarrier undergoing sea trials. The USS Ford is over 1,100 feet long, and cost $13 billion (!) to build: the most expensive #ship, and weapon, in history. So behold $13 billion making high speed turns at over 30 knots. #warshippic.twitter.com/5DyTaL0FZ6— Simon Jones (@Simon_JonesCTV) November 2, 2019 This is currently a serious matter since aircraft carriers are specifically developed to be the sea base of major fighter jets that protects a country's borders from sudden foreign attacks.
