6. That looks ridiculously like a Zumwalt Class (DDG 1000)

Also want to point out that the class of ship is determined by the name of the first ship in the class. Examples:

Zumwalt Class: DDG 1000 USS Zumwalt.
Arleigh Burke Class: DDG 51 USS Arleigh Burke
Ticonderoga Class: CG-47 USS Ticonderoga

There aren't even that many Zumwalt class DDGs in service.

I've worked on a few different types of ships as an active duty Sailor (2 CVs, 1 DDG, 1 CG), and worked on damn near every other class of ship as an INSURV (Board of Inspection and Survey).

A more suitable class of ship would be a Garbage Scow.

Drumpf is such a piece of shit!
