U.S. Navy Reviewing Ford-Class Carrier Design, May Cancel Future Versions
The U.S. Navy is reviewing the design and costs of the Ford-class aircraft carrier, with Navy Secretary John Phelan not ruling out canceling future versions. The review follows years of criticism from President Trump about the carrier's magnetic catapults. The USS Gerald R. Ford has been deployed for over 300 days since June 2025, participating in operations in Venezuela and Iran. The Navy's budget documents don't list Ford-class carriers among planned purchases, while Trump has proposed a new Trump-class battleship estimated at $17 billion.
