Seems to me the last time we used a battleship was to bombard the coast of Lebanon under Reagan. Or am I wrong about that? I think they recommissioned the New Jersey just for that purpose.

I think "warship" was mis-translated as "battleship". There are currently no battleships still in active service

Psyops. We did the same thing pre-Iraq. I bet Iranian military officers start getting more specific messages soon.

Battleships? Hmm, did we bring any out of mothballs? And the Iranian "Battleships" would be?

"Warships" not "battleships." The ignorance of many journalists is appalling.
