USS NEW YORK (LPD 21)

Makes a old sailor damn proud to see this new addition to the fleet.
Can't wait to see her sister ships the USS ARLINGTON and USS SOMERSET.

Nice looking ship!
I had no idea they were re-using steel from the WTC 1-2.

I think I might have known, but this caught me unaware.
I didn't know, however, that they were gonna use it in follow-on sister ships.

not a chance in hell that's real.
No way a plane would be able to stick itself out of the ground by the tip of its wing without it breaking, nevermind the damage that would have occurred when it happened.
