Trump Calls for Increased Financial Pressure on the U.S. Navy

Trump's demands on the Navy peaked in August, putting the service at risk of further weakening. The deployment of the USS Lincoln has set a record, remaining at sea for nine consecutive months, with sailors' families warning that personnel on board are nearing their limits. Government reports indicate that Trump's proposed "Golden Fleet" of new battleships will cost tens of billions of dollars more than expected, and experts criticize the president's order to revive outdated technologies, which could disrupt the production rhythm of the vessels. These compounded issues have significantly increased pressure on the U.S. Navy. The Navy has long been plagued by delays, cost overruns, and a shrinking fleet, potentially jeopardizing its ability to defend the nation. An American official stated that the Navy is stretched thin in the Middle East and the Caribbean, facing a severe situation.
