The Navy is weighing redesigning incoming Ford-class aircraft carriers to reflect President Donald Trump’s preference for a World War II–era appearance, The Washington Post reported Saturday.
The maritime branch is considering the shift on Ford-class ships to align with the president’s preferred aesthetic, the report said.
The Washington Post said the proposed changes would make the new carriers resemble World War II–era ships.
The extent of any proposed changes and their potential impact on schedules or costs were not detailed in the report, according to The Washington Post.
