President Donald Trump has unveiled plans for the US Navy to build a new class of heavily armed battleships. The "Trump-class" vessels are being billed as the biggest, fastest and most powerful warships America has ever built. The first ship will be christened the USS Defiant. Mr Trump said the vessels, each weighing more than 30,000 tonnes, will be equipped with nuclear-capable systems, hypersonic missiles and laser weapons, and serve as flagships of a revamped US "Golden Fleet". Nick Harper reports from Washington DC.
