...the battlewagons are hopelessly obsolete.

So are the M-2 and the 1911A1, they just happen to be superior to anything that has been suggested as a replacement. The advantage of the Iowa hulls is that they actually exist

The hulls might be there, but the engines and electronics required to operate a 21st century weapon system aren’t. The battle wagon age is over.
